1956 PACKARD FOUR HUNDRED

Description

THIS IS A TRUE BARN FIND PURCHASED IN THE SAME TOWN IT WAS SOLD IN WHEN NEW. I HAVE A COPY OF THE ORIGINAL TITLE. SHE ONLY HAS 53,700 MILES ON HER (866 MILES PER YEAR). THE CAR IS FULLY EQUIPPED WITH THE FOLLOWING FEATURES: PUSH BUTTON AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION, 374 CUBIC INCH V-8 WITH FOUR BARREL CARB., WIRE WHEELS, POWER WINDOWS, POWER SEATS, POWER ANTENNA. ALL OF THESE ITEMS WORK AS THEY SHOULD. THE TRANSMISSION SHIFTS NICELY AND DOES NOT SLIP, THE ENGINE IS STRONG AND QUIET.
IT HAS THE WONDER BAR RADIO WITH THE REAR SPEAKER. THE RADIO DOES WORK. THE TORSION SUSPENSION WORKS JUST AS IT SHOULD. IT HAS A NEW EXHAUST SYSTEM AS WELL AS A NEW BATTERY. ALL OF THE LIGHTS WORK CORRECTLY EXCEPT FOR THE LEFT TURN INDICATOR LIGHT ON THE DASH. IT IS PROBABLY A BULB BUT I HAVEN'T GOTTEN TO IT YET. THE CLOCK IS PRESENT BUT DOES NOT WORK. IT COULD BE A FUSE BUT MOST LIKELY IS A GUMMY MECHANISM FROM BEING 62 YEARS OLD. THE POWER BRAKES WORK FINE BUT THE UNIT NEEDS TO BE REBUILT AS THE GASKETS ARE ALL DRIED OUT AND IT SUCKS BRAKE FLUID INTO THE VACUUM TANK. THIS IS A RELATIVELY EASY FIX AND NOT TOO EXPENSIVE ( I HAVE HAD SEVERAL REBUILT BY WHITE POST RESTORATIONS WITH GOOD RESULTS).
THIS IS A VERY DESIRABLE YEAR AND MODEL WITH ALL THE BELLS AND WHISTLES. THE CAR NEEDS COSMETIC WORK DONE, ESPECIALLY PAINT AND INTERIOR TOUCH UP. THE CAR CAN BE SEEN IN EASTON, PA. SHIPPING IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE BUYER BUT I CAN DELIVER WITHIN A 300 MILE RADIUS FOR $1.50 A LOADED MILE PLUS TOLLS.
