I don’t know about Montana but you would never be able to register it in California!

That would get registered in WA with zero questions asked. Not once have they looked at any of my cars ever, for any reason. Present proper paperwork and signatures, pay the fees, walk out with registration in hand, then title arrives within a couple weeks. Done.

Washington must have changed as they gave me no end of grief when I lived there in the ‘60s. They wanted to stamp a custom number on my 1939 Packard’s frame but I refused and in the end got my title but it sure took a long time.

Bringing you more FB Marketplace Packards.

1949 Station Sedan. Very rough unrestored. All of the wood is either missing or badly rotted and the interior is just about totally gone. Comes with a 23rd Series sedan parts car which I think is a Standard Eight. You will need very deep pockets to tackle this project. Seller asking $4,500. Alabama:

1951 200 Deluxe Sedan. Abandoned restoration project. Body and paint done. Needs complete interior, glass, chrome and final assembly. I see what looks like wrapped bumpers inside the car, so perhaps these were rechromed but the grille is in the trunk and still needs to be done. Seller asking $3,250. South Carolina:

Color Scheme is MKN (Dover White, Scottish Heather, Maltese Grey). Most chrome is off the car. See stuff in boxes in the trunk and inside the car but can't really tell what's there. Asking $45,000. Pennsylvania.

Just fyi, the 1956 Caribbean appears to be 5699-1197 which was originally VMV (Corsican Black, Dover White, Corsican Black) from the factory.

Best regards.

Shocking that anyone would stray from the distinctive VMV paint job.

And that 51 200 is quite attractive...

Kip56: You are correct. I blew up the photo of the data plate and it is showing VMV for the paint code which is Corsican Black/Dover White/Corsican Black. Think the car should have been restored in these colors as the effect is quite striking and there are very few surviving Caribbeans in black. I don't recall ever seeing one in person.
