(PICS) Final Installment (for now) in DANBURY MINT'S 'what could have been'...
...this one blew my socks off! The 1935 Packard Series 1205 Super Eight Coupe, in Packard Cream. This was to be the next amortization of the DM 1936 Packard V-12 Phaeton tooling. Sit back and enjoy what SHOULD have been!

This one was a total secret. I would have ordered for sure.
What a beautiful model. This has been a real treat, but very sad as well.

Extremely sharp. 'Thank You' - to Rick + Tony for sharing these one-of's.
That hurts.
I would have purchased every Packard that DM produced.
amazing detail Tony...
WOW!
OMG! yes, this would definitely be on my shelf.
My socks are blown off too! YES, I'd have ordered this one immediately. The color is so eye-popping beautiful and the body style is one that would have made me break my (self-imposed) "no older than 1940 car".
Tony, I've loved everyone of the fantastic cars that you've shared on behalf of Rick Hannmore, they've all would have been "Must Have" without question, and YES, I'd have had them all on my shelf.
THANK YOU for sharing all of them! Happy 4th of July, and now I have to go and locate my socks.

a Sweetheart !!
the detailing and attention to proper trim set this one on it`s own pedestal....this last reveal is the best
the access doors just forward of the rear fenders,,,I wonder if the design allows for long item storage with access from either side.....for a set of golf clubs or a favorite skeet shotgun maybe
What a beautiful model. Wold've bought it in a heartbeat.
