Welcome Tony!! My family is from Cornwall, Marazion (west). Still have most of them over there. I was surprised by the number of rods and customs on the road in the UK.
A '55 Packard hardtop? Excellent!! It's different and cool. Keep us updated on progress with photos and words.

Hi Just starting to work on my 56 Packard Clipper, I hope you can help me on my 1958 Rover 75, seems not to be many Rover parts for the 75 models here in SoCal, but plenty of Packards.
Welcome
