Car description

1953 Packard Clipper 4-door Sedan

This car combines two of the most important traits that are often not found together in one classic car --- low mileage and original condition --- no matter how hard you try, once they're gone, they're gone for good.

I am the third owner of this 64-year-old car. We are selling it only because we are short of space. It has a straight-eight 288cid motor and a 6 volt electric system. There is also a newly painted engine and engine bay with Packard gray paint that is period correct.

Recent Improvements --
front and rear brake wheel cylinders
new brake master cylinder
new front and rear brake shoes
new gaskets and seals
new battery
a completely cleaned gas tank
a rebuilt carburetor
a completely new exhaust system

Exterior--
A period correct Packard Galahad green
Some nicks and scratches from its 64 year old life
Chrome is good, some browning at left front
No significant rust
Body is straight
All windows and doors work like new
Trunk is super-clean with original jack
Nearly new whitewalls are excellent

Interior–-
Dashboard is bright & shiny
Light cluster is in excellent condition
Door panels are quite clean for a car of this age
Emergency brake works
Seats are original cloth, some wearing in back seat
Robe rail is excellent
Both sun visors are excellent
Headliner is very good, small hole above passenger-side visor
