any Packard pics??...

got a really demented friend who is considering a 53 Packard as a mild custom project. gonna keep the straight 8 and all. we wondered if anyone else is as sick as this guy and had the pics to prove it. thanks...

I don't think your friend is that nuts. I love that body style.

If I had the money I would love to have that packard he wants. I have liked that car for a long time now. The owner hasn't done anything to it except move it for a long time. It needs a little work but I think it would be a killer mild kustom.

 

There's a '51 or '52 or something sitting in a fenced yard by the railroad tracks in Orlando. It's been there for years and years, I can see the potential in it.

 

here's a good one for photo shop fodder.

 

is that not a 54? I dont really remember very well..

 

it don't matter. the one he wants looks just like that. only baby blue.

 

beats me too... it was listed as a 53 on the website i found it on.

 

Lets see if I can get a pic of my friends '51 Kustom.. He is a longtime lurker of the HAMB

 

Here are a few more of it.

Some details are Buick front and rear bumpers. The rear bumper has the exhaust where the reverse lights were. 59 Chrysler 1/4's exteding the stock ones. '49 Ford backlite. It has slanted b pillars too. The car is blown apart now getting the final body work done and ready for paint. It has been on the road for 10 years in white primer.

 

here is one from the last monneyes show
