    Finally a more door car,guys!!
    Last week i got a call from a pal o mine,another car nut telling me that his uncle was selling a 40 Ford woodie wagon...i was actually surprised cause this car apparently has been sold recently to another member of the same family,as far i knew..
    The guy never finished the full payment so it went back to the seller wich wanted to move it faster...went to see it the same day quickly,to get the chance to see it in the flesh...
    Sold brand new in DF (Mexico City) from a local Ford dealer in town,way cool detail wich is very uncommon after seeing the original papers and trace back history since day one
    Still in perfect rust free conds with 98% of the original wood on it...not perfect but still well preserved wood on it.
    Check out the cool factory clock on the top...mmm,tasty!

    That Woodie looks cool as hell, sled! I've never seen a clock in one, a work of wooden art. I bet the guy that pulled out of the deal is kicking himself!! Lol.

    Reno did you grab the woody too?

    DONT chop the 32 IMHO. HEAPS done, very few done tastifully without the haircut.

    Hey Pete ,not yet...still working on the deal..;)

    About the 32 I bought it to have a hot rod for myself,and has to be a chopped car,always wanted one...that's why I bought it in this solid conds ,but not a finished car...however I will take my time on this matter,I know what you mean an unchopped 32 means these days,very few around around to be found

    Lets keep the bar up then...Packard 34 3 window coupe series 1101 ,aprox 300 made in the whole 1101 series and less than 10% existing today ..counting ALL the bodystyles available
    So how many 3w coupes there should be out there???I dont know but great lines a pure class on wheels...
    actually this is a lower budget (or almost) series in 34,being many others available plus the coachbuilt cars ...a very special year for Packard!!!
