1931 Packard Standard 8 Club Sedan
This 1931 Packard Standard 8, also referred to as a Series 833, is the perfect car for someone interested in making money through finishing the cosmetic work on a restoration or for a hobbyist looking for a less demanding restoration that could turn into a wonderful weekend driver.
This car was purchased from the estate of its previous owner after he passed away in the middle of the restoration. My health is now suffering after a recent pancreatic cancer diagnosis, so I am selling my inventory, including restorations such as this one, which are not complete.
Things to note about this restoration:
The engine has been rebuilt at the cost of $8000.The radiator has also been re-cored at the cost of $1300.The glass on the car has been replaced where needed and new channels for the roll-up windows have been added to make operation as smooth as possible.The clutch has been replaced with a newly rebuilt clutch.All five wheels feature Lester wide-whitewall tires.The wheels have been restored and completed with hubcaps from Bill Hirsch Auto.What still needs to be done to the car?
Paint - This car is ready for paint. In fact, the front fenders and aprons are NOS (new old stock).Upholstery - I have saved all of the old upholstery for use as patterns. The garnish moldings have been glass blasted and are in epoxy primer ready for new wood graining.Top Insert - The top insert needs to be replaced.
