Bought this gem for $300! Barn yard find. Only ran for 10 years!!! Parked in a barn ever since. Can't wait to get started. Brakes are stiff, carburetor was frozen and most likely the engine too. But its a small price to pay! These photos is where the car is currently resides at my family's farm.

dash is in wonderful condition. I'm not sure, but the odometer could be showing original miles being only 10 years old and was once used for the dept of public safety. Yes its an Ultramatic.

Original 352 engine. I do have the carb, and air cleaner. Took the carb off and going to soak it in diesel for a while, see if I can unfreeze it. But everything's here!

G'day redneckatw247.
to PackardInfo. I invite you to add your '56 Clipper Deluxe to the Owner Registry together with a pic, any known history and how you acquired it.

Because the car has been sitting for 40 years be very careful about how you go starting it up and stopping it! Plenty of good sensible advice here from Packard people who have been there and done that.

Like the pic's you've posted, shows a good solid foundation for your project. Keep 'em coming and, I'll look forward to seeing it progress.
