:waving: Hey Lee
I see several of them at our local car show.
a '38 Roadmaster and a '40 Limited.
Others are there from time to time, mostly the smaller models, a few coupes that have been "Hot-Rodded" out also there are some "slant-backs" and "trunk-backs" sedans with the "suicide" doors
The BIG Boys are few and far between.
They are simply gorgeous, Big and Spaceous.
Very few Makes had the Dual Sidemounts.
I know Packards had them. A very fine automobile in it's day :thumbsup:
Packard which was a high priced automobile tried to compete with Buick with the introduction of their 120 model. A very fine car, stylish. love the grille.
Packard was pretty successfull with their new, smaller virsion but they still used a flathead streight 8. Although tried and true they didn't evolve after WW II and another prestiegious nameplate bit the dust.:confused:
Highest Regards, :beers:
