Hi everyone! I purchased this baby 7 years ago, and it has been sitting in a storage yard in Utah all that time. I just got it shipped to California, so I can begin the restoration. As you can see, it is ROUGH! I am not quite sure what my plans are yet, but I definitely want to get the body and interior back in ship shape to start with. There are a number of missing parts I will need to track down for sure. This will be a long process, but I am eager to get going in the next few months.

I just finished restoring a 1977 Camaro. That was practice for this car I guess! I will be doing all the work myself out of my garage.

I have never posted here before, so I might make some mistakes along the way.
Here she is!

Good for you--my '40 110 looked much worse (well, still does) than yours, but mechanically she's in good shape.

Looking forward to seeing the progress ahead.

G'day Erik S,
to PackardInfo.

I will be following along with your restoration.

Also, I invite you to include your '39 Six in PackardInfo's Packard Vehicle Registry.

Eric, welcome to PackardInfo.com!

For a moment I thought the rear windows were barred.
