    It’s not a Ferrari, I know. However, I thought some might like to see the "only" Packard to ever enjoy being bodied in Italy. This is a one-of-a-kind Packard. It is a 1948 although it was started before the war (WWII for those who didn't know :eek:). I found it at Quail this year and it belongs to Ralph Marano in New Jersey.

    As always, I took artistic license with the setting.

    I am a big pre-war Packard fan 34-37 LWB 12's in particular. Gorgeous cars.

    This one is really cool - you say started before WWII so what chassis is it on and which engine did they use?

    Thanks for sharing.

    Cheers

    Sorry, I don't know which chasis or engine. All I know is I like all Packards. They're all quiet and smooth.

    That car is so beautiful and elegant. I think I'd like to arrive at a nice dinner in that ride. :)
