Happy Father's Day everyone. Here are a few more Packards from Facebook Marketplace:
1951 200 Deluxe Sedan. Parts car. Somebody cut off the roof in a butchered attempt to make a convertible. Has stick shift, so the tranny and shift linkage are all there for someone who wants to convert their car to standard transmission. Probably not much else is useable. See a lot of rust on the body and engine looks like it has not run in decades. Seller asking %1,500. Ohio: facebook.com/marketplace/item/1213971557143889 1949 (23rd Series) Standard Eight Sedan. Ad states it is a Super Eight, but it is either a Standard or maybe a Deluxe. Original car. Appears interior was redone in incorrect fabric and pattern but is deteriorated. Body and chrome look decent. Car runs but ad states brakes are bad. Asking $5K. Indianapolis, IN: facebook.com/marketplace/item/1128423025779002 1938 or 1939 Junior coupe. Very rough abandoned street rod project. Has what appears to be a V-8. Much of the car is missing, like the complete nose clip, and body is really bad with extensive rust and collision damage. Not sure what, if anything you can do with this. Ad lists it as a '41 but with the split backlight, it is a '38-'40 Junior. Seller asking only $500. Colorado: facebook.com/marketplace/item/1872469096648338 1939 120 Sedan. Rough parts car. Most of body looks pretty bad but it is hard to tell from the one photo in the ad. Seller asking $500. Portland, OR: facebook.com/marketplace/item/731639455931265 Free Packard parts. Seller's dad had Packards and son is now trying to get rid of his deceased father's hoard. Has a few complete engines for $500 each but is willing to give the parts away for free. See some hubcaps, engine and trim parts and wheel rims. Most of the stuff appears to be for '48-'50 models. Seattle, WA: facebook.com/marketplace/item/734673152422898 1950 Custom Eight. Car has been sitting outside for years. Body looks good and is not rusty, but ad states interior is shot, and car is not running. Some trim has been removed. Seller looking for offers. Bellingham, WA: facebook.com/marketplace/item/1531387784933089

This one just popped up. 1953 Clipper Sportster. Rare model, project car, but looks to be restorable. Body looks good with some of the normal rust around the rear wheels. Normal floor pan rust as well. Chrome is present and might clean up to driver quality, but will need to be redone for a nice restoration. Interior is shot but door cards are seats are present for patterns. Priced right at $2,500. This would be a great project with a very attractive interior when done. The door cards are the same pattern as on my '54 Panama they were a blast to make. Pretty tempting but I have no space or time for another project at the moment.

Kevin, but it already has vintage Washington plates so is definitely calling your name!

This thing is in infinitely better condition than my $300 Rusty McRustface. They share a lot of the same parts. I'd be lying if I said I'm not very tempted to pick this thing up and sacrifice Rusty for the greater good. But there's no good way to explain it to my wife, lol.
