1956 Packard 400

Up for sale is a 1956 Packard 400 2 door Hardtop, being offered as a Buy it Now/Make Offer format. I am working with a family selling the car collection of an elderly family member who has passed away. We believe the car was purchased out of Pennsylvania in 1966 based on the plate on the car and the temp transfer tag in the trunk. The odometer reads 39383. The engine appears to need some major work as one valve cover and the oil pan have been removed and are stored in the trunk with other parts. While he owned the car it appears to have always been garaged. The floors feel and look mostly solid with little rust thru(top of fenders) and surface rust to the areas shown in the photos. The car appears to be complete except the small dogleg trim at the back of the rocker pane, driver's side. The drivers side fender skirt/trim is heavily damaged. All the glass looks good. The stainless is good but the die cast pieces have pitting. We do have a clear NY transferable registration for the car. Prior to 1973 NY State did not issue Titles only transferable registrations. It appears that even though the car was off the road the owner kept the car insured and registered thru 2008. Please Look at the Photos, it was difficult getting good undercarriage images. The car is located in New York's Columbia County, south of Germantown. We will consider offers on this car. We ask that once the sale has been made a $500 deposit thru ebay be made within 48 hours and the balance paid within 14 days via cash on pickup or wire transfer. The car can be stored up to 2 months as long as full payment has been made. We can help load the car on to a trailer, and also depending on destination can offer enclosed trailer shipping for a reasonable fee. This is a good car for restoration. Good Luck and Thanks for Looking
