Description:

1956 Packard Caribbean

Paint MTV90 Trim.Shows 7732 miles but I can not verify.By the wear on the car suspension & how it drives, it is a low mileage car. The car had been in storage in Texas most of it's life when we purchased it.It came with the original top & both SS trim pieces.Engine runs quiet & strong.Original 2 X 4 bbl set-up.Power seats & windows work fine.Painted 2 years ago with modern 2-stage paint that is in very good condition. We just completed reupholstering the interior, which includes the leather / cloth combo with the knobby SMS cloth material that is no longer available.We made a custom top with matching orange headliner & pads.We also made a new loop carpet & trunk kit.Manual top takes a couple of minutes to lower, but is safer with the headliner than the power top set -up.Power top set-up is included in the sale.

Basically an original car with most pot metal pieces in excellent to near perfect condition.Bumpers & gold script were replated during the restoration process.Original wires are very good.Torsion bar set up for manual control from dash.Original gold plating on grille & front bumper are in excellent condition.Includes the original jack.There is a wiper scratch on the upper right side which can be buffed if desired.More pictures available.Hopefully it will stop raining this week & I will be able to get it out to take some exterior shots. Interesting partial trade considered.

Reserve is considerably lower than the market value for # 2 condition car. John Kepich 336-492-2286 (NC)john@kepichantiqueautoparts.com
