Here is a 1953 Packard Patrician 400 Sedan. Great condition for its age. There are minor dings and dents on the body. 99% of all of the trim pieces are present inside and out. The original radio is present with bezel and knobs. The two lighters are also there. One in the front and one behind the front seat. The roll top cover over the rear ash tray is in perfect condition. The coat hooks and dome light switches inside the pillars are present. I have the original 4 hub caps. The motor compartment looks to be complete short of the battery. The drivers side front window is missing and the front windshield has a large golf ball size crack with runs. The rest of the glass is perfect. The rear stop light , right side lens cover is missing as well as the two front driving lens covers on bumper. I have keys that open the glove box and trunk. I do not have keys the unlock / open the doors. I'm not sure about the ignition since the cars doesn't run or have a battery. Doors open and close well. The front passenger door doesn't latch properly shut. Dash board knobs are all there except one for the speaker under ignition switch. Has a New Mexico clean title. The steering wheel center cap is in great shape along with the horn bezel - the outside grip is gone. The interior is shot as to be expected. Headliner too, the ribs are all there. The bumpers are in great shape, a few pot metal cracks on a few pieces. There are only two rust spots that are obvious - both in the same place on both sides of the car. rear rockers under passenger doors. Trunk show not rust holes. The antenna is broken off but I have it. It has a very distinct arrow tip at the top. All knobs and trim to inside door panels are present. It even has the original 2 foot rest blocks in the back seat floor board. I was going to use this for the motor parts for my 1949 but I cant tear it up for parts - it's too complete. Looking for someone with fewer projects than me to take ownership. Email with questions or specific photos.
