Packard Forum Index » Pre-War (1899-1942)

Hello all, I was inspired by PGS41's post on 15th April to send some details and photos of my restoration. The car was running when I acquired it. I started by disassembling and then grit cleaning the chassis. I have not redone the engine, clutch or gearbox as these were o.k. Otherwise everything else has been restored. the body was rust free,but the spare wheel wells were rusted through. I removed all the paint and primed with red-oxide and had the final coat done professionally.
All that remains to be done is the upholstery of the seats [here I had these done but is came out as a complete mess], so this now has to be redone. I also will make a new steering wheel and then redo the clock. Apart from some small refinements the job will be finished.
I hope that the photos are attached, if not I will need advice.
Regards.

I like the color

A very pleasing color for sure. Is she a right hand drive?
