I was so happy when DM released this one. The '56 is my all time favorite Packard. It just oozes elegance.😊

+1. Have it, love it - GREAT pics Geno.

Also have the black flop top version but like the tri-color model better.

Both examples sport extremely attractive colors; my fave is the black and coral.

+1 Bob! I'd love to add the convertible but nearly everyone available at a decent price has bad paint rash. Thanks Geno

Thanks guys, you know it's appreciated. I'd love one of the convertibles as well. But like Geoff said, ones with good paint are out of my price range.

These Danbury Mint 1956 Packards all look great !  I have two of the 1955 Packards in 1/18 from Yat Ming and they are also favorites. I modified one into a top-up version and these last true Packards are really such gorgeous automobiles and make excellent diecast models.

Agreed! I like the Pebble Beach version - 1955 Caribbean Convertible.
