Here is a picture of the attractive show car Packard Balboa. It is a really good-looking hardtop dream car from them with a reverse-slant roof and (I believe) a retractable rear window. It is being shown off by the Packard styling director and would have made a fine companion to the Packard Caribbean.

It is a good-looking show Packard ! The 1953 convertible Caribbean (like my 1953 Yat Ming 1/18 Caribbeans) has open rear-wheel cutouts/openings. Both '53 and '54 Packard  openings look excellent, so I am happy with ever they decided for this hardtop.
