Projects 1940 packard henney hearse tree find

about twenty years ago i tried to buy this old packard he****...guy says nope,i'm gonna fixer up...well he didn't live long after that and i never thought about it again till i get a phone call asking if i still want it....hell yes i do..then it's yours and the price is right....so ***le is in my pocket and when the ground dries up..the neighbors will have a new subject to complain about.

wonder what the little kiddies will think???? i'll bet they stay out of mu yard now.

 

more shots

 

Neat car.

 

I love he****s. Congrats!

 

wow...nice

 

all ya need is Morticia beside ya..........very cool

 

Shades of Dr. No.......I think

 

Cool car

 

that thing is awesome great score , was a 29 in a salvage yard near by , but it was so far gone when i found it , it had fallen in on itself and the engine and transmission an axle where all that was left

 

I'm dying to go for a ride in it. Sorry, couldn't resist that. I like old he****s. I know a couple of funeral directors in Georgia who have vintage he****s that they will use for funerals upon request. One has a '42 Cadillac and one has a '31 Model A (actually AA, it's built on a one ton truck ch***is).

 

Man Ive allways wanted one of those. Too nice to chop up ,buut,allways modify. Theyres one in tombstone at "boot hill" I tried to get years ago. the old guy said replace it and its yours, then I go back to look at it and it had been burned.Its still there though. that one would take a HEAVY modification cause iffn its burned the playing field is wide open.

 

Ahh, you're killin' me here with this he****! My wife would LOVE that! She's probably one of about three women on the planet that like he****s, but WTF, I'm good with it! We had one in the early '80s that I found in Belgium and brought it to the US later on!

 

HA! (I think the Dr. No he**** was a LaSalle?)

 

that's totally cool with no windows on the side. like a Packard panel truck.

 

It looks super solid and pretty complete. Should be a cool project, I love Packard grilles.

 

that looks like a 1940 packard

 

its probably has a super 8 356" motor in it

 

love those things, really cl***y and yours doesnt look too far gone compared to some i've seen. Great score..........keep it black and keep the flames and skulls away from it, they're so much more sinister when they don't have Halloween costumes d****d all over them.

F

 

Nice score!

 

that is a SERIOUSLY COOL find,,,,,good luck with it,,,,,,,

 

Very, very nice...

 

saw this one on ebay today. too many modern touches, but has a good stance.

 

Super cool find!
V/8

 

I agree.

 

Two things come to mind. First, it's amazing that someone in the family remembered you were interested in it 20 years ago.
Second, just tell the neighbors it's a very rare Packard Suburban prototype.
Non car people fall for anything.

 

needs to be chopped before I ride in it

 

my brother lives not far from where the car has been sitting and the old guy in the pic asked for my number because his sister remembered i wanted it at one time.

 

patrick,bring the wife over .i'm at exit 186,north to westech, one mile east and go north on earl drive....5th house on left.

 

much love for henney packard he****s here a picture of my 49 from 1968 (my hippy years)
