1949 Packard Custom Eight. All original survivor that I got back in 2007. This was a one owner car bought new at N.A.Armour Packard on 6/24/1949. It was used until 1961 when the original owner bought a new Cadillac Fleetwood. It sat in the garage completely untouched from 1961 till her death in 2005. It was kept in storage until I acquired it in June 2007. It's been on the road since late 2008 after an extensive going over. All original paint, interior etc..
Powered by a 356 9 main bearing engine and manual overdrive transmission.
Thanks for watching and enjoy.

My grandpa had a 55 but I've always liked the 51-54s. My appreciation for the for the 48-50s is growing and yours is a great example of an original. Thanks for sharing!

@@gregdelagrange8573 maybe I’ll have to venture one state over from here in NWPA and see your Packard in person at a car show some day. Until then, thanks again for the tour.

Wow! SMFH 🤯🤯🤯 That's Simply Awesome Stuff Man! Thanks for Sharing this with us, and what a Beautiful Survivor Vehicle Period! Once in a lifetime time for the average Joe, so consider yourself extremely lucky to be the temporary holder of such a mint specimen that's not been restored or butchered up yet!!!

I don’t have to “ask the man who owns one”, he showed me. Lol Your video makes me want this car.

It's wonderful to see an original. Yours is in such good shape. I have an original '53 Clipper DeLuxe, 327ci 3+OD. It's not as good as yours, but still presentable. I take it to club outings, and every other week at least just to a park or to the store. It beings me joy. People smile and wave.

Forget restoration, this car needs nothing. Drive it as is.

@gregdelagrange8573 3 года назад

Thank you. That's exactly how I feel about it as well. 😀

@@gregdelagrange8573 People didn't have to drive such large distances to work and back in those days and thus there are still a good number of low mileage originals around. Oh--I commented on FB too, great video. I'm a huge straight 8 fan of any make but especially Buicks.

Does the gas tank whistle work? A great treasure.

@gregdelagrange8573 2 года назад

Yes the gas tank whistle still works.

@djszabo418 2 года назад

When I was a little kid, I thought all cars had gas tank whistles. My grandpa, two uncles and my godfather, all drove Chevrolets with them. My father had a Packard. My godmother worked for a dealer that sold both and my uncle and my father worked for Fisher Body.@@gregdelagrange8573
