Found for sale: 1940 Model 81

[Guest dabecker65@gmail.com]

Found for sale in Johnson City, TN area. Series 80 Limited touring sedan, 6 pass,sidemounts, not running and in need of complete restoration - however, it does look complete and appears to be solid and unmolested. Body has surface rust on original paint. Interior is all there but shot. The seller is asking $4,500 and will negotiate. Price seems reasonable for some one looking for a project. Seller also has a "basket case" '37 Packard (model unknown - looked like a junior series from a distance) Packard may have some useable parts - he is asking $600 for it.

Is it possible to get some photos. It seems the model is correct, but I am curious. Did the 80 series have the sidemounts as an option and all the 90 series have them as standard? Any chance this is a "Formal" sedan, with an F designation after the number.

Is there a way to communicate with the owner or will you handle the communication? My wife's family had such a car, and I mightb be talked into working on one. At least she would not object to its aquisition.

Let me know.
