VEHICLE HISTORY/
PROJECT STATUS:
Car was purchased from a young Packard owner, Arsen Sheklian who made the car into somewhat of a "GI-Joe" although he commissioned a very nice interior renovation somewhat along factory guidelines. Am beginning to make mechanical assessments first, prior to work and paint. New front end, brakes, power window repair,shocks, and power steering work now completed. Blueprinted V-8 is running like a champ!Major stainless(and pot metal) trim now assembled, including custom "Esquire" scripts. Paint is the next major thing to be tackled.
Vehicle Modifications
MODIFICATIONS:
My plans are to turn this car into an Esquire replica. See picture of modified Caribbean. Car will be Dover White and Tangier Red in the application scheme done for the majority of Esquires. Car has been sold and was shipped to Mexico.
