Cli55er bought some of the doors but don't know if he also bought paneling. He is the only forum member who posted photos of what he purchased that I can remember right off but am sure there were others who bought. As I recall the stuff did sell out but don't remember how long it took. There was also a fund raising project with the wood floor being cut into small squares and sold as mementos.

Quite a regular

If I remember correctly, the paneling in the executive offices was walnut. I think it was sold off in the '90's...I think the showroom stairs went then, also. PB
I remember Kanter selling pieces of factory floor in the '80's, but that was from the Ohio factory.

Those posts were made several years before I became a member here and I don't recall ever seeing them. In fact, I own the domain name authenticpackard.com (and .net, .org and .us) but have never put a site there. I didn't know it had such a history!

The floor sample I have was sold much later than the 80s. It is actual E. Grand Avenue factory flooring. As I recall the small samples were sold as part of the Packard Proving Grounds foundation fund raising when one of the first restoration projects was just starting. Someone else might know if any of the flooring blocks still exist or anyone interested might find out if the blocks or any current project is in the works by contacting Bruce Blevins.
