Not a bad start. For the price, quite a good car since it's solid. As long as the mechanicals are good, so much the better.
Keegan is doing a 5522 Deluxe sedan on the same chassis so very similar to yours. His started out a lot worse.https://packardinfo.com/xoops/html/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?topic_id=789&viewmode=flat&order=ASC&type=&mode=0&start=0 As long as you, like Keegan, have the talent and equipment to do the work then you are so much more ahead of others and will have a nice car when done.

Auto king,
Does your car have a radio? I don't see an antenna on the driver side front fender. What are the paint and trim codes for this car? Is the red correct or the white? How is the glass?

Congratulations. 1 of the big ones down, 99 smaller ones to go. Stick or auto? If you have Ultramatic, that's the next big one.

 Al for including your '55 Clipper Super Panama Hardtop Coupe in the Registry. I've taken the liberty of adding the pic you included in this thread to the Registry entry seeing it didn't have one of your Packard.
