Tom, Thank's for your welcome! My car was made for export to Switzerland with odometer in kms per hour for 200 max! No chance to break the needle... Today, only 72000 kms on the dash. But she is not a valuable vintage as your Packard.. Well, I enjoy "mélodie" V8 engine and it's great for me. I am member of the Américan Car Club de France, ACCF. www.accf.comPhilippe

Yes Dave, US cars are not so common in France. But some people start to have "bad" eyes on her... You know: pollution, gaz emission, ect, ect... De Ville 1972 with 472 cid in France look like a monster! Far awway from Toyo "Prius", the last fashion in the world.  But when I move the hood, so nice to see and to hear!

If you want to post more pictures.....right here in this thread is a great spot!!! And please do post more!!!  I remember going to Italy with my family as our vacation back in 2000, and being amazed at how small the cars were! I saw plenty of Fiat "Puntos" and Renault "Clio"s, you could probably fit one of them INSIDE that deville!!!

HAHA wow especially that last picture, if I did not know already that it was NOT taken in the U.S., I wouldnt have guessed! Hot-rodded flathead, Thrush sticker, and good old Jack to keep the coolant from spilling!!! That guy is definitely an old-school rodder!
Well If I'm ever in France I'll be sure to check if theres any meetings or shows put on by the ACCF!!

Cool looks like a good show, as I would imagine. ACCF has a nice website too.
