 10/17 Location: Allegan, MI. Member Since: 08-14-2007 Posts: 467 | posted This recently came across my screen via an email from a classmate of mine. It's a 1937 Packard, the only one built. The couple standing by it are the owners. http://s1180.photobucket.com/u...erwechter/slideshow/ He bought it for $16,000 about 10 months ago. It had been in a garage for many many years. He polished and waxed it and put on a clear coat of paint. Did some minor engine work and it started right up. It has 40,000 miles on the speedometer. Word is he was offered $300,000 but didn't take it. No way to verify, but interesting, nonetheless. Lou |

His son, my uncle, had a '36 sport coupe, which as a 3-year old, with my grandmother, rode in it from Atlantic City to Miami for the uncle's wedding. I spent most of the trip luxuriating on the hat shelf.
