Description

Yep, No Reserve. Last man standing wins this fantastic 1949 Packard.
..Sadly, Hemingway never owned this car but it did spend the last 30 years parked in the famous authors garage. I recently acquired this car from the second owners widow. He purchased the car in 1988 from Volo Auto Museum. Prior to his purchase the car received an exterior paint and all the chrome was restored. Overall she is in very good cosmetic condition. The chrome is pitting in several areas but should polish up nicely. Body is nice, paint shines up very well, believe it or not, all I did was wash her. It would look fantastic with a buff. The interior is in excellent all original condition.
She runs and drives but needs some work on the brakes. videos of her running and driving can be found on you tube if you search 1949 Packard Super Eight.
She sold a few weeks ago here on ebay for $8900 but the winning bidder from another country could not complete the transaction. The car sits in my driveway in Northbrook Illinois. I can keep her here for a month or two while you arrange shipping.
Bid with confidence. She will make a great driver with a minimal amount of work.
