It's good to see you. It sounds like you're in touch with resources. Take it slowly, and don't become frustrated. It doesn't have to be perfect. Packards are wonderful fun. I have a '53 Clipper Deluxe. It brings me joy. People smile and wave.

Just love the cathedral taillights on a Packard Partition...er, Patrician. Great to see that car come back to life with your help!

We LOVE the detail of this car, it's so unique! New episodes coming soon with the new interior Jen made! Thank you for your support!

Great little video here, thank you. I have a 1956 Packard Clipper Custom Hardtop Coupe here in England UK. Shes in Red with white side stripe and top, the interior is Red and black inserts in the seats. Its the only 2 door Coupe 56 here in England. Only 1466 Clipper Custom Hardtops were made. It sits aside my 56 Olds 88 Holiday (my favorite car of all time).

Make sure you go through the suspension. Its a electric leveling torsion bar suspension so you can't go to any old auto shop for work or autozone for parts. You will need to network with Packard collectors and parts hoarders. They are out there and its a tight knit close group.

Thank you for the heads up! We have come across a couple of spots - Packard Info, Max Merritt Auto Part, Borth Auto Parts and a few others! We love how helpful everyone is!

Courtney Love doppleganger brought me here. I was searching for 1955 Packard Clipper videos because I am putting a Clipper dash into my 88' Bronco II!

The first lock up torque converter appeared in early 80s cars and trucks. Packard had it in 1948. learn all you can about these cars, they really are a fine automobile.

First time viewer, looking forward to more. Anybody ever tell you two that you look like brother and sister, if not twins?!
