Packard Forum Index » Studebaker Built Packards (1957 - 58)

This appeared a few minutes ago on another website, thought it might bear repeating here.

"i just wanted to let everyone know that there are 1 of 588 58 packard hawks at u-pick-it in kansas city. looks like it had a very serious engine fire. there is not a whole lot left of it. the interior is burnt beyond saving. it had a carbed sbc swapped into it at one point, so there is no blower or associated engine pieces left (damn!) and i grabbed all the stainless trim. the fiberglass nose section and hood are completely destroyed. front bumper chrome center section, rear bumper look good. doors, trunk lid, and fins. may be salvageable, or might be warped beyond repair due to the fire. i took pics, but can't retrieve them off my phone. "

Hi,

Did you notice if the fake continental spare tire and spinner were still there? I've been trying to find one for my P.H. Also looking for that oddball bumper jack if you happened to notice. Tried calling these folks and got a recorded message; apparently they won't remove parts for buyers and ship them or they'd have another number.

Always looking for these if anyone knows where any are.
