That's the way they all were so whether 120 or 160, it was impossible to tell but most were 120. Even in 1951 and 1952, they had Patrician-like trim but they had the 5-main 327 rather than the 9-main of the Patrician while in 1953 and 1954, they had Cavalier-like trim but only the 1954 had the senior senior 359 engine. The 1948-1950 models all had the 356 as far as I know with the Custom's egg crate grille but it wasn't interchangeable with the passenger car and neither were the front fenders.

There was a Miller Art Carved at a Professional Society Meet I went to in Henney's hometown of Freeport, IL but most in attendance were Henneys due to it also being done in conjunction with a Henney employee reunion. I was there in my 1952 Henney-Packard Nu-3-Way which won the long distance award. Not too clear in the photo but I believe that's it in the background with my 1952 up front and George Hamlin's 1953 beside it.




On second thought, that's not the Art Carved in the background but here it is in a page from a multi-page newspaper publication about the meet.

1940 110 Touring Sedan (two door). Great project car. Sheet metal is exceptionally straight, though do see some floor issues in the photos. Original seats unbelievably well preserved. Ad states seats were covered since new and are original. They have been removed from car and carefully wrapped. Have never seen fabric like this before and you would be unable to duplicate it today. Will need door panels to complete interior. Car has been in dry storage since 2010 and is not running but engine is free. Asking $7K. Lincoln, NE:

1956 Patrician. Original car with typical rust over headlights. Some side trim is damaged. Original green leather and brocade interior actually looks pretty useable as is. Car is not running, and engine is seized. Seller says he has a second engine for parts. Ad states 66K original miles. Appears to be original paint (Dover White over Persian Aqua - Scheme ML). Restore or parts. Asking $2,500. Wisconsin:

New posting this morning on FB Marketplace especially for V-8 fans:

1956 Executive Sedan. Appears to be a really great survivor car just out of long-term storage. Not much detail in the ad but looks promising. Body looks really straight, and I don't see any major issues. No interior shots, so have no idea what that looks like. Very attractive two-tone paint scheme, think it is Dover White over Shannon Green (Scheme MA). This car is definitely worth checking out for the asking price of $6,500. Watertown, NY which is in the western part of the state near the Canadian border. I was actually there once many years ago.

1941 - there are better cars available for this price.
1956 - I see potential bondo at the rockers and rear fenders, considering that the car is from up north, I am not very optimistic :(
