Hey guys, I joined the H.A.M.B. to learn more about hot rods/hot road repair. I’m currently an original car kind of guy with owning an original 55 Packard Super Clipper. I also currently have a 55 Packard Panama (2 door) with a Packard 320 V8. This car is what I’m going to “Hot Rod” I know this is a little unconventional but Packards are what I like. The Panama will include body work, custom interior and getting as much power and noise out of this car as I can. Thanks for allowing me to join... 55 Clipper 55 Patrican 55 Panama (Packard)
Welcome to the HAMB. Packard's are one of the best American cars ever built. I think you can Hot Rod any car. Maybe it's not a traditional Hot Rod. But a fun and cool car for sure. Keep us posted on your progress. Ron.....

It has a lot of issues including very bad body work, a busted transmission and zero interior. 55 Clipper 55 Patrican 55 Panama (Packard)
I like the color combo! My 1968 OT (off-topic) vehicle is similar with a solar red body and white painted top. My H.A.M.B. hot rod was originally white with red interior. It also needs work and isn’t anywhere near the fastest but the board is about support and fellowship and sharing information. I’m having fun hanging out and not worrying that my ‘64 GTO isn’t numbers matching nor it will it ever be. No one here cares. Have fun with it and get it in the road!
