VEHICLE HISTORY/ PROJECT STATUS: | His first drivable Packard, He found this car through a Hemmings ad in 1987, but with a lot of regret in the years since, after discovering many substandard repairs made by the preceding owner. Engine previously replaced with same from a '56 Four Hundred, due to catastrophic oil-related failure of connecting rod. Presently in long-term storage, soon to be brought back to road worthiness. I recently acquired this and several other Packard's from a friends collection and will attempt to complete what he started. | ||||
