1940 Packard 120 Touring Sedan Real Class! Sold new in Phoenix and lived most of its life in Arizona and New Mexico. SOLID and STRAIGHT! It was restored as a stock restoration in about 1990, with all the modern chassis and powertrain updates professionally done during 1998 – 2004 at a New Mexico shop. But……she could really use a fresh repaint and interior redo. The body and frame show no signs of ever being rusted or damaged. It’s unbelievable how clean the frame and underbody are. The rear valance panel was replaced at one time with a fabricated part, otherwise its all the original Packard metal. BUT, this is not a heavy car, it weights in at only 3250 lbs. Never driven in the Michigan winters, always stored inside. Rebuilt 1974 Chevy 350 and Turbo 350 transmission. Sanderson rams horn manifolds, Edelbrock dual plane intake and 625 Edelbrock carb.
