The Boston area is a hot-bed of Packard enthusiasts, you should be able to find some like-minded folks to visit with. See if you can get out to the Collings Foundation collection of vintage cars and aircraft in Stowe. PAC visited this collection during the Boston (Danvers) National meet and it's just superb!!, not to be missed if you're in the area.

I was just there two weeks ago, I played at the fantastic shanklin Music Hall in Groton, Mass. The White Heat Swing Orchestra Sextet and I combined forces for a very succesful concert. I had very little time for car fun while I was there, but as luck would have it Mr.Shanklin is a big brass car fan, he has several Stanley steamers and a Rolls Royce Silver Ghost, so there was some car talk.

I am an hour and a half away. If you want to come down and play with Packards, I am ready and willing.

Randy, no, that is Garrett Shanklin. His son Norm is quite a steam car guy.
