Vehicle Details
Beautiful 1956 Packard 400 Coupe. This car has had some restoration done at some point. I do not know when. The interior is original pattern and colors. The exterior is original Scottish Heather and Maltese Grey. It is NOT black and red. The Scottish Heather is a very deep pink and Maltese Grey is a gunmetal grey. Absolutely zero rust on this beauty. She was stored inside all her life. She has the original steel wheels but I have a brand new set of Packard wire wheels that go with her. I also have a brand new custom fabricated exhaust with resonators (uninstalled). I also have a transmission adapter kit to be able to install a GM automatic but she is currently running the original 2-speed Ultramatic. Ultramatic needs to be rebuilt. Power Steering, Power brakes, electric windows (1 is not working). Electric front seat. Electric radio antenna. Torsion-bar adjustable suspension. I have not diagnosed the suspension but it is not running. Could just be the fuse. 374ci Packard V-8 with factory 4-bbl. Runs and drives but she was sitting for awhile before I got her so she needs some attention. The truck lid has some wavy-ness on the area where the truck lock is. One piece of metal trim has a hole drilled in it, otherwise body is straight and trim is good. Current clear California registration. Also have a pair of factory Packard spot-lights. This is a rare care. Last year for true Packard. I have only been able to find one other picture of a car with this color combination (and believe me I’ve looked)! I can ship overseas if needed but buyer must make all shipping arrangements.
