---|---|
Handsome, well-maintained example of Packard's last great car. One repaint, beautiful original interior that looks like brand new, fantastic chrome and trim. Fully loaded with automatic transmission, power steering, power adjustable brakes, power windows, power seats, hidraulic auto-level suspension with manual switch under the dash, see pictures car is level in different positions.Great ‘50s cruiser that isn't the same old thing.This particular The Four Hundred has one repaint some years ago in the original red over Dover White, which still looks fantastic today. Packard gave the The Four Hundred that lovely strip of ribbed trim bisecting the sides of the car and providing a dividing line for the two-tone paint jobs, and it's remarkably well-preserved. Since it's a casting, it should be subject to pitting, but the trim on this one shows zero issues—that's really extraordinary for one of these cars. In fact, all the chrome and stainless trim is in super great shape, from the familiar Packard crest on the nose and tail to the gold anodized “The Four Hundred” emblems to the awesome rear bumper with built-in exhaust tips. Whatever Packard's financial status may have been in 1956, it didn't show in their styling.The two-tone Red and White leather interior remains almost entirely original as well, It's beautifully detailed and very ornate everywhere you look—this car had to be insanely expensive to build. The leather is in fantastic condition. The seats are comfortable, there are no split seams, and the door panels are highlighted by more finned trim in equally good shape. The lovely instrument panel uses a gold-toned mesh as a background, and the theme continues in the gauges that are as ornate as anything from the 1930s. The engine was fully rebuilt and all the old pistons, cam, water pump are in the trunk with several extra parts.This is a FACTORY AIR CONDITIONER CAR!, The complete system it is on the trunk and included with the sale! The previous owner removed the system to have a "cleaner look" under the hood. Was fully functional and ice cold.Clean Florida titleI CAN HELP WITH SHIPPING ARRANGEMENTS TO ANYWHERE IN THE WORLDIf you have any questions, please feel free to email me, I will be more than happy to help before and after the sale.Placing an offer indicates that you have satisfied yourself with the condition of this vehicle and are intent to purchasing it up to your bid amount.There are no discounts or refunds for unexpected damages.You are responsible for shipping.I will be happy to help with arrangements after your purchase.If you have any questions or concerns, please contact me through eBay and we can go from there.Car is advertised locally and I reserve the right to end the auction early, a $500 non-refundable deposit will be require with 24 hours and final payment will be require in 7 days via cash/bank wire transfer.Final payment is ONLY accepted via Bank wire transfer or cash in person.
