VEHICLE HISTORY/
PROJECT STATUS:
Car was originally bought by an Indiana funeral home, and later owned by two Indiana collectors. I bought the car in 26 from Jerry Jones, an Indianapolis attorney. I just completed a very thorough cosmetic restoration -- chrome &am
paint. Now I'm moving onto mechanical restoration so that car can be put back into service for special events. Expect this to be an occasional service vehicle in late 29. A very interesting find as a button under the dash (to the right of the radio), which controls a working siren!Also interesting, there's a radio, but no antenna.Have bought a roof antenna from Tucson Packard.Completed a thorough mechanical restoration, which included a complete engine rebuilding,wiring harness and servicing of the electromatic clutch. After participating in the front-row of a Denver Concourse, in 214, I sold the car for the collection of Mr. Ramon Ang, of the Philippines. The car was shipped to Manila in 215.
