Packard DELUXE CLIPPER BASE (1956)
for sale

Price: US $6,100.00

Description:

THIS IS A 1956 CLIPPER DELUXE THAT I PURCHASED ON EBAY LAST YEAR.
ALTHOUGH I HAVE NEARLY ALL THE NECESSARY PARTS TO MAKE IT MECHANICALLY 100%, I FIND THAT I NO LONGER HAVE THE NECESSARY ENERGY AND INCLINATION TO DO SO.
THIS CAR IS SPECIAL BECAUSE IT HAS THE MANUAL TRANSMISSION WITH (WORKING) OVERDRIVE, WHICH MAKES IT A GREAT TOUR CAR. IT WAS ALSO DELIVERED WITH THE CONVENTIONAL SUSPENSION SYSTEM WHICH IS EASIER TO MAINTAIN.
THE ENGINE IS TIRED AND DOESN'T RUN VERY WELL, EVEN THOUGH IT WAS SUPPOSEDLY OVERHAULED. I HAVE THE PARTS TO BUILD A REPLACEMENT 374 CI V8, INCLUDING THE INTAKE MANIFOLD AND 4-BBL CARBURETOR. THERE IS ALSO A SPARE 2-BBL INTAKE AND CARTER CARBURETOR.
MANY SPARE PARTS GO WITH THIS CAR, INCLUDING SPARE RADIATORS, 5 STEEL WHEELS, SPARE WATER AND FUEL PUMPS, A NOS SET OF PACKARD HYDRAULIC LIFTERS IN THE ORIGINAL CARTON, BRAKE PARTS, NEW ENGINE MOUNTS, EXHAUST MANIFOLDS, ENGINE SHEET METAL, FENDER SKIRTS, AND TWO SETS OF NOS SMALL CLIPPER HUBCAPS. SEE THE LIST IN THE PHOTOS, IF YOU CAN READ IT.
BUYER WILL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR TRANSPORT OF THE CLIPPER AND ALL THE SPARE PARTS.
STRAIGHT EIGHT PACKARD PARTS ON THE LIST IN THE LAST PICTURE ARE NOT INCLUDED IN THIS LISTING.
