  1. I wasn’t sure if it was complete enough - big round opening in the firewall could mean a missing component.
  2. The previous posters have noted most of the differences between a 400 - which is a cool car by itself - and the Caribbean. The Caribbean had the "hood scoops" as noted, different side sculpting, and "should have" a 2x4 engine. Packard experts can correct me on that one. I usually can't stand white, but this looks nice, with that orange/red section which is carried over to the interior. 15 to 25 years ago, during the golden age of collecting and about 200,000 more Packard fans that have since deceased - this would yield $35,000 and go to a Packard specific collection. Now? I am not sure. As I have said before, folks need to understand that every 1956 Packard was made knowing it was the end. Sometimes for employees that had been there 45 years, dating back to the teens, and many workers who came on in the depression with the 110's and 120's. So with this car you likely have a very personal interaction between the workers who knew they were done, assembling with a care a car that is an artifact and has survived all these years, to be enjoyed by the next owner, turning the key to the right, firing up the last Packard, and enjoying life at a pace more reminiscent of 1956 then 2024.
  3. Noted the old IOWA license plate, where I am from. Got any idea what the model is? Looks like a 4 cyl, so smaller series/
  4. Marketplace - 1923 Buick roadster barn fresh original survivor static display or project hot rod rat rod automobi | Facebook Original old 23 Buick roadster .. been in the same place for 30 years .. great for diarama static display or get it running for parades or hot rat rod it ??

  5. Black leather at that. Silver and black I believe is a high production combination for 1963.
  6. Most of today’s sellers do not want to lift a finger. Just give them the cash. $78,000 for a number 1 car?
  7. I remember seeing that pop up in a search and wanting to post it on this forum but have been too busy.
  8. I’ve thought about buying another Marauder to go with my 1970 X-100 but it wouldn’t be a bench seat car unless it was a 410/428 with 4 speed, which may not have been an option. I am a “meh” fan of these 1966’s. Their not bad but the 63 Marauder with a 390 would be my next Marauder choice.
  9. Yes, the ubiquitous 62-64 Chevys with 283, 327 were hotter to own, sell, buy as projects - then the 62-64 Fords. Ridiculous! This 63 Ford has a BB 390, the 327 couldn't compare to it.
  10. Just a comment, not a bash, but these seem wildly popular because they are popular. They made 48,068 of them, which is by no means rare.
  11. Wow. Imagine getting this 55,000 mile Dodge for $15,000.
  12. Marketplace - 1937 Dodge Viper | Facebook 1937 Dodge D-5 Deluxe Sedan. Car is mostly original with some modifications. 12 volt, electronic ignition, recent brakes, tires, battery, clutch and machined flywheel. Fluids and some seals changed. A solid driver, mostly original with a fine patina. Stored indoors and turnkey.
  13. Marketplace - 1962 Buick Wildcat | Facebook 1962 Buick Wildcat · Coupe · Driven 2,000 miles Your very own 'barn find'!!! 1962 Buick Wildcat, all original, Nailhead 455. 1 of less than 2000 produced that year! Original owners purchased new in 1962, then parked in 1979 and untouched since then. It's been about 10 years since anyone has touched it, but 10 years ago, the engine turned by hand with a ratchet on the crank pulley. Had some paint and light bodywork done before it went into the garage in 79, but otherwise solid body and undercarriage. Tires still actually hold air. Front and rear bumper were removed but are included, just not pictured. Fully restored this baby could be worth over $30k. Or go the resto-mod route and make it your own! $4000...located in the near west Chicago burbs
