    I don't think the new title is accurate, there is nothing to yawn about with this car.

    How do you like my vintage license light? Does it qualify as art deco? Just have to install the intake gasket and we are ready to roll. Looking forward to try out the 5 speed trans and listen to the straight pipes. See you at the Charlotte Goodguys in October. LICENSE LIGHT 001.JPG LICENSE LIGHT 002.JPG

    I like them and think they are period correct.

    GOODSGUYS   PACKARD 018.JPG My biggest worry was keeping the flathead cool. Runs 140 on the highway and 160 profiling. Look at how small the radiator is to get the grille shell LOW. The 5 speed is the greatest!!! Someone told me there is a Goodguys Charlotte video of me and the car on Instagram.

    I'm late to the party but what a cool car and great build thread! Maybe I missed it somewhere, but what brand of body is that?

    I still have the Cadillac parts and a complete engine to go in the 32 I am building. Chassis almost done. The black 27 has an 8BA engine with a 59A cam. I like the crab dist. Stock stroke x .040 bore. Note the rare Edmunds intake. I run two 2020-11-12 12.40.35-7.jpg Rochester 2GC carbs with .054 jets. Starts and runs great.
