Vehicle Detail
HERE IS A VERY RARE! 1952 PACKARD '250' MAYFAIR 2 DOOR HARDTOP WE HAVE PUT OVER 20 PICS TO TRY & COVER EVERYTHING ABOUT THE CAR, SO PLEASE BE PATIENT WITH THE LONG DESCRIPTION. LIKE SEVERAL OF THE CARS WE WILL BE LISTING IN THE NEXT FEW DAYS, THIS CAR HAS A LOT OF POTENTIAL TO BE A REAL BEAUTY TOO. THIS WOULD BE A GREAT CAR TO RESTORE, OR MAKE A REALLY COOL STREETROD PROJECT. BUT IT HAS BEEN IN STORAGE & IS NOT CURRENTLY A DRIVER. IT HAS THE ORIGINAL FACTORY 327 STRAIGHT 8. AND THE "ULTRAMATIC" TRANSMISSION. THIS CAR WILL NEED TO BE TRANSPORTED & IF YOU'D LIKE WE CAN HELP YOU GET IT TRANSPORTED ANYWHERE FOR OUR WHOLESALE RATES. THE FRONT END, GRILL, ETC. ARE CLASSIC & OVERALL VERY STRAIGHT & SOLID FOR BEING ALMOST 60 YEARS OLD. THE WINDSHIELD HAS CRACKS, BUT NONE OF THE OTHER GLASS DOES. WE CAN ALSO GET VINTAGE GLASS AT WHOLESALE PRICES AS WELL. ALTHOUGH IT IS OVERALL VERY STRAIGHT, SOLID & CLEAN FOR BEING ALMOST 60 YEARS OLD & IS A SURPRISE HOW SOLID IT ACTUALLY IS, IT IS CERTAINLY NO SURPRISE THAT IS DOES NEED SEVERAL AREAS TREATED & REPAIRED. THE ABOVE PICTURE IS JUST IN FRONT OF THE REAR WHEEL ON THE DRIVERS SIDE AT THE BOTTOM OF THE QUARTER. THIS PICTURE SHOWN ABOVE IS OF THE SAME AREA ON THE PASSENGER SIDE & IS THE BIGGEST AREA ON THE OUTER BODY THAT WILL NEED REPAIR. THE ONLY OTHER AREAS WE FOUND WITH RUST ON THE WHOLE CAR WERE AS FOLLOWS: THE TRUNK FLOOR, ALTHOUGH OVERALL SOLID, HAS SOME AREAS THE NEED TO BE REPAIRED. (SEE PICS LATER ON) THE FLOORBOARD ITSELF HAS SOME AREA AS WELL. ALL OF THE AREAS INVOLVED ARE VERY EZ TO ACCESS & WILL BE SUPER EZ TO FIX. (IN FACT WE CAN ALSO ARRANGE THESE REPAIRS FOR THE BUYER AT OUR WHOLESALE COST!) OTHER THAN THE AREAS MENTIONED ABOVE, THE MAJORITY OF THE FLOORBOARDS, TRUNK FLOOR & ROCKERS ARE SOLID. AND IT HAS SOLID DOORS, SOLID FRAME SOLID FENDERS SOLID HOOD SOLID TRUNK LID SOLID QUARTERS SOLID ROOF ETC.! HERE ARE THE PARTICULARS: SOLD WITH A CLEAR OREGON TITLE. VIN: 25772474 ODOMETER READING: 31630 LIKE ALL OF OUR VEHICLES 10 YEARS & OLDER IT IS BEING SOLD AS:MILES EXEMPT. FRONT BUMPER IS REMARKABLY STRAIGHT! (ACTUALLY, COME TO THINK OF IT, THE WHOLE CAR HAS COME THROUGH TIME PRETTY DARN STRAIGHT!) ORIGINAL FACTORY CHROME WHEEL COVERS TIRES HOLD AIR, BUT ARE OLD & WILL NEED TO BE REPLACED. TAILLIGHTS & TRUNK LID LOOK NICE! CLEAN & STRAIGHT TOO! THE REAR BUMPER ISN'T PERFECT, BUT NOT BAD AT ALL! COOL FACTORY TAILLIGHTS TOO. ALL SORTS OF STREET ROD POTENTIAL! AND HOW NICE WOULD IT BE TO HAVE SOMETHING THAT NOT EVERYBODY ELSE HAS? INTERIOR: DASH IS CLEAN & ORIGINAL. STEERING WHEEL & HORN RING LOOK NICE AS WELL! GAUGES NEED TO BE CLEANED. BUT ARE IN VERY NICE SHAPE. RADIO & HEATER CONTROLS. FRONT SEAT NEEDS A LITTLE UPHOLSTERY WORK BUT IS VERY FIRM & "COMFORTABLE". =) BUT SERIOUSLY, THE SPRINGS / FRAME LOOKS GOOD & WE CAN GET YOU A GREAT DEAL ON ANY PROFESSIONAL UPHOLSTERY WORK IF YOU'D LIKE TO GET THIS DONE BEFORE YOU GET THE CAR. ALL AVAILABLE THROUGH US AT OUR WHOLESALE COST! BACK SEAT LOOKS GOOD TOO! VERY "SPRINGY". ALTHOUGH THE DOOR PANEL WILL NEED TO BE REPLACED, (ALSO AVAILABLE THROUGH US) THE DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR ITSELF IS IN GREAT SHAPE! SOLID & STRAIGHT SAME WITH THE PASSENGER DOOR. VIEW OF PASSENGER FRONT. TRUNK FLOOR HAS SEVERAL AREAS THE WILL NEED REPAIR AS WE MENTIONED BEFORE, BUT IS ON THE WHOLE NICE & SOLID. THE THE THUNDERBOLT 327 STRAIGHT 8 WILL NEED WORK SINCE IT HAS BEEN SITTING, BUT APPEARS TO BE ALL THERE & ASSURES ME IT IS READY FOR IT'S RESTORATION. ENGINE COMPARTMENT IS NICE & UNCLUTTERED! EVERYTHING IS EZ TO WORK ON & SIMPLE! MECHANICAL: SIZE: 327ci TRANSMISSION: TYPE: "ULTRAMATIC" AUTOMATIC 3 SPEED ON THE COLUMN. NICE OLD HARDTOP. JUST NEEDS A GOOD NEW HOME.
