"I love that '55 Packard..."

Yes, it is very nice, but it's a '56.... and it's not "real."     

You'll note it's a Clipper, not a Packard (in 1956 "Clipper" was separate make ) AND it's a convertible.   Packard/Clipper never produced a Clipper convertible in 1955 nor in 1956. 

It appears to me that the owner/customizer grafted on all the "convertible stuff"  from a junker (undoubtedly ) Caribbean, looks like quality work though.

Great selection. Nice to see a Spitfire MKIV in the same colour as my old one.

Nice to see something a bit different.  My fave is the Golden hawk.

Fantastic array of fine automobiles Karl - thanks. I'd have to say that the black Packard two-door coupe in pic #4 is my favorite; but all these Packard's are magnificent.

The white Packard Roadster, the 57 Golden Hawk and the Pantera are my picks. Thanks for sharing Karl.
