This stunning example began life in sunny, southern California and sold new from Earl C. Anthony Packard in Los Angeles on November 28th, 1941. It remained a solid, rust free example and went through a passionate restoration in 1996 when Massachusetts collector and body shop owner, Frank Finney, purchased it. He was an active member of the North Shore Old Car Club and attended many car shows in the northeast. He conducted a complete repaint in factory colors, all new leather interior and floor carpeting, refinished dash, full engine rebuild, all new cloth-covered 6-volt wiring harnesses, new sending unit & pump, restored original running boards with rubber surface, complete restoration of transmission & overdrive with original parts, balanced driveshaft, stainless steel exhaust, all new tires, all new braking system & linkage, new wheel bearings, fully refurbished power top operation with new convertible top, rebuilt water heater, re-plated & polished chrome bumpers, and so much more! Upon completion, it went on to be shown in the 1999 Packard Centennial Celebration in Warren, OH, The Castle Hill Concours D'Elegance, and many others. It stayed in the loving care of Mr. Finney until his passing in July 2018, and with the Finney family until February of this year. Don't miss this rare opportunity.
