Original 1954 Packard Cavalier Sedan

1954 Packard Cavalier Sedan

Original 1954 Packard Cavalier Sedan For Sale

It was an old American car made by Packard in the 50s. A short production line car, only two of 1953 and 1954 were offered as a four-door sedan only, called the Cavalier designed to replace the Packard 300 model. Here is one original example of a 1954 Packard Cavalier still in good condition with the rare Senior trim package offered for sale by the owner.

Light restoration work needs to be completed. It has been restored but remains in its original paint, the interior has been refinished except for the headliner, and there are no reports of any mechanical problems or leaks, overall it is in good condition for its age.

Not all are touched by renovation, there is still a little work that needs make it perfect. The good thing is some modifications and upgrades to meet modern safety regulations, new 3-point seat belts in the front and lap belts in the rear have been added.

The 327 Straight eight engine is mated to an automatic transmission, sits neatly in place, and there's nothing to distract the eye, all looks clean, hope all is done right. It's great to see what has been done, it looks like the hard work has been done. So it's just a matter of how you get on with it, that's the point.

Barn Find, 1931 Rockne 65

Barn Find, 1931 Rockne 65 For Sale

Found this one on Craigslist, a rare American automobile made by Studebaker Corporation under the Rockne brand. Reportedly only 24000 units were ever made in 2 production years and only 230 still exist today and this one of them. The car is being offered for sale in Tucson, Arizona looking for $14995.

As you've seen here is a barn find Rockne 65 4-door sedan built in 1931 with 6009 miles shown on the odometer. No words about the mechanical issue and no background were written in its ad, but the car hasn't been driven for a few years and is very completely reported. If you are one of those who often restore the glory of the past through an antique car, this is a perfect example for your next patient.

No words about renovated, but the interior shows quite decent condition for its age. No rotten hole seen from here, that's could be the perfect bone if you want to renovate.

1931 Rockne 65 Engine

Looked dusty and unkempt, but looks promising. The six-cylinder Studebaker engine is still there in his place and there’s no word about mechanical issues, we bet it's still rebuildable. If you want to find an American antique car beyond the familiar brand, the Rockne 65 is more worthy of restoration than Ford or Chevy.
