Pam and Paul's 1928 Packard 526, barnfind, tornado survivor.. and restored by Paul!





 It takes a before and after to appreciate the amount of commitment and dedication, and the level of excellance that people have put into their car restoration. My compliments!

the window on the right? That was the 2nd floor of the garage, and the Packard is somewhere inside that 2 into one story garage, in pieces, just as it was about to be reassembled because the pieces and parts were recently finished

a bit of this and that in the display case at the Automobile Driving Museum in El Segundo

 when only a handful were made, how did anyone ever hold onto the booklet? Wouldn't it be cool as hell if the museums had a bit of good fellowship loaning, and put this with the Turbine car in the Peterson Museum?

Mister G bought a dealership brochure at a swap meet, and way cool! He scanned it! He posted it! http://progress-is-fine.blogspot.ca/2012/02/but-what-about-hovercars-we-were.html 


these are just a couple of the entire brochure, go see the rest!  http://progress-is-fine.blogspot.ca/2012/02/but-what-about-hovercars-we-were.html

 The "World Buggy Co" ? as part of, or a name for Studebakers?
 This is supposed to be a Packard? Well, as a model car, it's supposed to represent a real car... did Packard ever have one made by a coachbuilder / carrozzeria

Cool vehicles at the Automobile Driving museum, in El Segundo, on the west coast, just south of LAX
