What a great choice for a club model.  I have been looking for one of these for some time without success and now I'm glad I didn't find one as this will be much better quality. This car is one of the very few that wear a continental kit really well IMHO.  The color scheme chosen is perfect.  Gotta have it!

Excellent choice for a model car subject ! What a wonderful -looking car and a real Fifties highlight from Packard.

  Looking at this most impressive presentation (well done, John!), I turned to my Packard shelving and took down my '53 Caribbean.  Here it is:

Packard's revised painting scheme for '54 is most attractive.  Thanks for the good post.

It looks beautiful. Beautiful color scheme.  I wonder if it wil have the top up/top down feature such as the ‘65 Impala and the ‘56 Buick have. For me now that’s a requirement for convertibles.

David, you will be happy to know it will..... here is a quote taken from their website about the model...

'It will once again come with both top up and down features and will include our brand new NABCC Flag'
