VEHICLE HISTORY/
PROJECT STATUS:
So far the only history I have is :


Sold by Earl Ray ?California Packard Dealer (That was Earle C. Anthony, the California distributor for Packard products. All Packard dealers in the entire state were under his control. He was one of the original four Packard distributers, signing u
in 1905. The others were first in December,193 Alvan T. Fuller in Boston, Charles P.Joy in St. Paul, MN and Jack Tarbill in Cincinnati.) to George Pepperdine Pepperdine University.



Dale Schlanser then purchased the vehicle in year ???? Some scant info regarding Dale Schlanser. Don't know if he owned the vehicle or acted as a dealer after Pepperdine ownership.


The car then went to Nova Scotia and bore the Antique Registration p[late # 3935. To date no details of the owners or transfer dates.


Even less about owner registered on Packard USA members list known as Rick Star of Grand Rapids M.I. who is also listed in this Packard owners registry.


Would appreciate ANY history to compliment this vehicle's C.V.

My email a hrefacceptu4u@optusnet.com.au/a

She now lives in Australia.

The vehicle was "SOLD" to the Gosford Classic Car Museum in 2016(?)

Have also marked the entry referred to above for Rick Star of Grand Rapids M.I. as "SOLD" because it is the same Packard.
