1956 Packard Executive 2-door hardtop for sale

Current customer rating: current rating for this car(2.1) based on 470 votes

For sale is a 1956 Packard Executive 2-door hardtop. This is one of only 1032 made! (This is #867. ) The car is in good mechanical condition but does need some attention to make it "top notch. " 

Quick stats:

--352 cubic inch V-8

--Has a good Twin Ultramatic Transmission. Transmission cooler upgraded to an air Cooled unit. Over $3. 00 recently invested to have THE local master Packard expert go over the transmission and engine.

--New heads. valves. rocker shafts. lifters. starter. water pump. fuel pump. radiator. upgraded oil pump installed. carb rebuilt. Engine runs strong and smooth.

--New front-end kit installed.

--Gas tank cleaned and treated.  

--New rubber windshield gasket. needs stainless trim installed. (trim included)

--Lots of Steele rubber products.  

--Original grille is spectacular!  (It would attract top dollar if parted out)  Bumpers. script. and stainless trim are very presentable and have been re-installed with mostly new fasteners.

The Downside:

The interior.  The front seat. back seat. and side trim in the back have been re-upholstered.  The two door panels need a complete upholstery job. but all the parts are there. including correct fabric.  A small amount of vinyl is needed.  The headliner and dashboard could be repaired. but I think they should be replaced.  

The exterior.  From 10-20 feet it looks like a spectacular award winner. From 10 feet in. you can see flaws. mostly from shoddy pre-paint prep. that will take effort and money to correct.  Body shop experts tell me that the paint work can be corrected without a total re-paint.

An identical Packard. described as being in extremely good condition. is up for sale at Autotrader for $35. 00.

Asking $12. 00 or best reasonable offer. Have close to $20K invested.

I've given  it 8 years and now I need to move on. My loss is your gain! Cash or certified check only.  

Please let me know if you have any questions.
