Detail by seller
Selling an extremely rare 1951 Packard 300 (Only 15,309 of this model were made and there is only a few left today). This car was found sitting in a garage for 10 years covered in dust. It has an inline 8 cylinder 327 CI motor that runs great and has less than 50 miles on a rebuild. The transmission rebuild is being done right now. UPDATE: FINISHED ($3000 Advanced Transmissions in Santee). It has been converted to 12 volt at some point in time and all the lights and turn signals work. New Bosch battery, new coil, new points and new condenser. New spark plugs, new wires, new distributor cap & rotor. New fuel pump and new fuel-filter. The radiator was removed and boiled out, pressure tested and new radiator cap. New hoses, new oil and new coolant. There is absolutely no rust anywhere, not even surface rust. The gas tank was drained and cleaned. This car is priced to sell quick. Clean Title in hand, no dents or prior damage at anytime anywhere, and the condition inside and out is over the top. So much so I would venture to guess this is one of the best examples of it's kind anywhere. Registration is current I paid all the back fees ($800). Black custom CA plates on order "Real 51". This car is a real head turner, showstopper, and a rolling piece of art on beautiful whitewall tires and gorgeous paint. Interested parties call by phone or email me and I would be happy to answer any questions you may have. Serious buyers only, I don't need any help selling it, nor will I accept any trades. Cash only $18,000, a top quality classic that's all original and anybody would love to own it. Another update: The car is currently undergoing a color-sand, glaze, and machine polish that is almost finished. Should be finished today (9-7-16) and the paint is now amazing.
