Vehicle Detail
Up for auction is my fathers 1946 Packard Super Clipper. He is the second owner. He purchased it in 1966 from the original owner with approx 62,000 miles on it. He used it as a sunday driver and then put it away to raise kids. It has always been stored inside. In about 1972 he got it back out but found out the overdrive wasn't working and had a local repair shop fix it. They pulled the trans and had it disassembled before we knew it and ended up replacing it with a 3 speed. Otherwise this car is extremely original, right down to the original 1946 tires. The seat covers have never been off of it since new. Approx 6 yrs ago I planned to have it driveable for their 50th anniversary but the plan didn't materialize. The motor cranks, has spark, but the fuel system needs cleaning. It comes with a clear title and the original keys. There is very slight rust in the wheelwell, and above the grill bar and some tears in the headliner. See pics. Please ask any questions before bidding. I would be able to store it free until mid October and then $15/month after that if needed.
