West, It's very likely that I saw your car, as I am only a couple of years older than you and went to the Brooten museum quite a few times in those days! And I was ALWAYS looking for the Packards!

Thanx much MrPushbutton!
I'm fascinated with Packards story in automotive history.....I also think that the Packard 12 cyl engine beat the Cadillac 16 in almost every way... haha....hence my ID. Anyways, I still love the 16's. I find that alot of car guys my age are becoming more and more appreciative of Packards and cars from the classic Era. Unfortunately...when people think of ''classic cars'' they think of the cars from the 50's and 60's (for the most part)...I think its our duty to relay the message that Packard and other independents like it, left their mark and in the end, got; the 'last laugh'.

Let me know if you're interested and I'll shoot you a PM with more details. Lots of events and tours coming up this summer. Love to have you join us.
