1956 Packard Patrician

Packard Patrician (1956)
for sale

Price: US $7,000.00

Description:

I am selling My Packard Patrician. I have talked to many packard enthusiasts, Club members and even museums. And I am told that it is in fact the ONLY patrician with a manual transmission, And the ONLY one that runs on propane. The only other Packard in the world to run on propane is the first Carribean ever made. So this is literally the ONLY ONE IN THE WORLD. So, For $7, 000 you can own this beauty. It has a sun beam propane kit on it, Dealer installed when new. This car was owned by the owner of a packard dealership. He drove the car as his personal car for years and owned it until 2010. He kept a meticulous amount of paperwork and reciepts and records for the car. He also has a few letters and even a dyno sheet of a secret motor that packard was developing in 1953 that was 852 cubic inches. I have all of this. The car runs great on Propane as well as gasoline. All at the flip of a switch. The self leveling torsion bar suspension works great, or you can turn the self leveling part off and lower the car to where you like. I tend to lower it as low as it goes and drive around. The power windows work great, the power seat works, as well as the power antenna. The only thing that doesnt work on the car is the radio. It lights up but the tubes are bad. Typical older radio. The transmission shifts fine, just like it should. I have not drove the car but a few miles because of the original dry rotted tires. I have extra drums and shoes for it. It is an amazing machine and EXTREMELY RARE as its the only one in the world. So Please, come take a look at it and take it home! You wont regret it. If you have any questions you can call or text 7404758964. I will gladly answer any questions you have about it.
