Steve_Mack_CT Posted September 30, 2019 Share Posted September 30, 2019 Looks like it is not too far from the road, an at home restorer could take it and run with it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WILLPOWER Posted October 1, 2019 Author Share Posted October 1, 2019 It's comforting to know that there's someone out there, in down under land, who's old enough to remember Gary Puckett and The Union Gap. He was singing about a girl, not a car. Thanks for the chuckle. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WILLPOWER Posted March 28, 2020 Author Share Posted March 28, 2020 Still for sale. If you don't like the price, $8900., I'm open for offers. Anybody have a '57 Ford Fairlane, or a Studebaker Gran Turismo for trade. Let me know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The girl I was dating at the time adopted "Lady Willpower" as her theme song - I would have preferred "This Girl Is A Woman Now". 😈 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul Dobbin Posted May 24, 2020 Share Posted May 24, 2020 We went to a Gary Puckett & the Union Gap concert here a couple years ago with Gary Puckett, the cousin. Gary Puckett the singer came out after the show to speak to Gary the cousin. It as a good show and Gary was very nice to talk to, plus he sang all the old songs. The cousin is a big Packard fan.

robcars Posted July 24, 2020 Share Posted July 24, 2020 I like the factory front seat! is the last picture before it was in a barn for 50 years? TO be honest if you wanted a packard of this yearI would go for a better series Packard, not the poverty model. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robcars Posted July 24, 2020 Share Posted July 24, 2020 I like how people say original when the interior is plastic leather, not the original engine, doors do not natch the color of the rest of the car, so a repaint. I guess the missing headliner is original! He does not state price because it is probably to high! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WILLPOWER Posted July 25, 2020 Author Share Posted July 25, 2020 Hey Junior Member, you seem to have a problem posting wise guy, sarcastic comments. I've read some of your other posts. I won't dignify any of your negative statements, or opinions, by responding to them. Since you consider this a "poverty level" vehicle, why would you waste your time, or mine. You're obviously not interested. Unless you have something positive to contribute, move on. Your two cents are not welcome here. P.S., the price is in the ad, if you'll take off your blinders and look. I wonder why AACA doesn't gong guys like you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
