The 356 SOHC Packard project has stalled. My father has dementia and with that it will see a new home. Motor is installed, backed by a new Tremec five speed. This is quite the unusual project. PM with any inquiries. Thanks. Ed.

I am sorry to hear that. In regards to finding a new home, to be honest I haven't the slightest clue what this is, so you may want to post some more about it, to get some interest going.

Thanks for the feedback. A lengthy blog was started by my father some years ago: link to it from page 1 of this thead below-

rlg0613.wordpress.com/science-project-blog/?order=asc

The overview is as follows:

A custom cylinder head was fabricated from 2 Jeep 4.7 SOHC heads. Cam drive and all related components custom fabricated. Custom intake and exhaust. Custom pistons. Tremec five speed adapted to the engine via a Lakewood scattershield. Front of the car extended to accomdate the 356 (frame/fenders/hood). Body is 1937 or 38 I believe. Stock suspension, brakes and rear axle. The motor has 3 hours run time on it (not all in one event, most prior to chassis install).

It's a unique build (an understatement..). It was a complete car to start with. Does come with all new glass. Beyond all this, am not able to better advise off the top of my head. Thanks.

I believe the body is a 1935 "120" club sedan. Ed gave me the VN and theft-proof numbers some years ago, I'll look them up later this evening to confirm.

EWJ - A very comprehensive, detailed and informative description by your Dad of his endeavors in regard to this colossal undertaking.

In regard to the '35 120 which the engine is to be installed in, would you be able to include it in PackardInfo's Packard Vehicle Registry?
