1953 Packard convertible $6500 Atlanta, Ga

[scuppernongwine]

This is a complete 1953 Packard convertible. It's been sitting for a number of years in indoor storage. Straight solid body with some rocker and rear quarter rust and a small bit by the passenger headlight. Original straight eight engine. Radiator removed but included. Ultramatic transmission (a spare transmission is also included). All the rare and difficult to find convertible parts are here. This is a cheap start on a very rare convertible....

Here is a link to pictures of the car...

I would agree that represents a nice Packard project. I am not that familiar with the standard 53 Packard convertible. I know about the Caribbean. Did these have the 327 as well?

If I had $6500 or so laying around I would grab this one. I know of one other totally nasty 52ish Packard convertible that isn't worth restoring.

Yep, this car came with the 327 as well. I've listed it on ebay item number 220977603695
