HERE IS A FABULOUS TWO-OWNER PACKARD THAT WILL CRUISE ALL DAY AT EXPRESSWAY SPEEDS! THIS CAR WAS PURCHASED FROM THE ORIGINAL OWNER IN 1984 AND HAS BEEN USED IN PARADES, CAR SHOWS, AND PRIMARILY FOR PROMOTIONAL USE BY A REALTOR WHO IS NOW 88 YEARS OLD AND NO LONGER ABLE TO DRIVE IT. HE HAD LOTS OF WORK DONE TO IT SINCE 1984 AND WE HAVE THE RECEIPTS TO PROVE IT. THE ENGINE WAS REBUILT, AS WAS THE ULTRA-MATIC TRANSMISSION. THE CAR WAS REPAINTED IN CORRECT CORSICAN BLACK IN 1999. OTHER THAN THAT, IT IS A COMPLETELY UNRESTORED CAR WITH 46,600 MILES READING ON THE ODOMETER. THE FACTORY 352 V-8 STARTS, RUNS, AND PERFORMS FLAWLESSLY ~ NO LEAKS, SQUEEKS, RATTLES, OR UNUSUAL NOISES OR SMELLS. THE INTERIOR HAS SEAT COVERS THAT WERE LIKELY INSTALLED IN THE 1960’s. THAT GREAT PACKARD DASH LOOKS ALMOST NEW. HEADLINER, DOOR PANELS, CHROME, TRIM AND GLASS ARE ALL ORIGINAL. THE DRIVER’S SIDE WINDOW AND BACK WING GLASS ARE CRACKED. THE UNDERCARRIAGE, FRAME, CROSS-MEMBER, TRUNK, ETC. ARE VERY NICE FOR A 54 YEAR OLD CAR. EVEN THOUGH THE PAINT IS 11 YEARS OLD, IT IS IN BEAUTIFUL SHAPE WITH NO SPIDER WEBBING OR FADING. THERE IS SOME FILLER EVIDENT AROUND THE REAR WHEEL WELLS. ALL IN ALL, THIS IS A BEAUTIFUL PACKARD….AND OF COURSE….THE LAST “REAL” PACKARD. PERFECT? MINT? OF COURSE NOT. IT IS AN UNRESTORED 54 YEAR OLD CAR. OUR RESERVE IS SET EXTREMELY LOW. THIS IS A GOLDEN OPPORTUNITY TO OWN AN ICONIC PIECE OF AMERICANA. WE ALL KNOW IT WILL ONLY APPRECIATE IN VALUE. THIS CAR IS BEING SOLD AS IS. WE ENCOURAGE INTERESTED QUALIFIED BUYERS TO COME AND SEE THE CAR FOR THEMSELVES. WE ALSO WELCOME YOUR INDEPENDENT APPRAISOR TO COME AND VIEW THE CAR. PLEASE EXAMINE THE PHOTOS CAREFULLY. WE WILL BE HAPPY TO ANSWER YOUR QUESTIONS, BUT ONLY IF YOU ARE A SERIOUS QUALIFED BIDDER! IMPORTANT! READ ALL OF THE DESCRIPTION AND TERMS BELOW BEFORE BIDDING.
