Hi Mrpushbutton
Thanks for the pictures too. Darn, I missed seeing that handsome '32 Phaeton and the '33 Sedan. But that's Hershey, large enough so some interesting cars get missed no matter how much one walks and looks. Saw that stunning '34 Twelve club coupe in the parking lot of the Cocoa Diner on Thrusday morning, later in the Dayton museum tent, what a sweetheart! Steve

I drove my car there, and displayed it in the HPOF section. This photo was taken on the road out of the show field, after everyone had left.

West, I saw your car in the Chocolate field, looked around for you, wanted to say HI! but I missed you. Very nice car.
Hey guys, how about resizing the photos before posting here, there is a free program at www.ifranview.com easy as pie to use (I figured it out!) about 600 wide is ideal.

That was my parking spot for the week. I met an individual from Venezuela whose father was some "big wig" (or at least that's what I thought he was trying to tell me). He had two 1808 limousines (he might have said they were 160s). They were both restored and painted identical... silver with dark fenders (ugh!). Very nice man, though.
Interesting comment on the photo "size" issue. On my computer, they're all fairly small, until you click on them.

Well, it's weird, sometimes the picture of the 1939 Packard in the car corral (by itself) is flippin' huge, and stretches out the whole screen, and other times it is fine.

G'day all, Absolutely brilliant cars, none of them in the Antipodes! Did anyone get any snaps of the Packard Swap Meet sites. Are they in an organised row or are they out of the back of an RV. My wife and I organise a Swap meet for the veteran, Vintage and Classic Motorcycle Club in Canberra, Australia and most sites are on a 5 X 5 metre ground site. We have around 300 indoor and outdoor sites. There would be between 3 to 5 Packard specific items at the Swap meet. Best regards Peter Toet

Hi Pete,
Yes they are organised in rows, you start with your field colour, Orange, Green, Choclate (North and South) and Red (1, 2 and 3) plus the car coral which covers the perimeter of the sports centre and also the car show field. The Aussies do things in a big way, but, Hershey is something else! I have tried to post some pics to show you the size of the place. I hope they have come out but if not let me know and I will try again Regards Terry
