2 Production clear coatWe are including enough base coat to complete the paint job.
Random Info:
Very little wood inside the '41 body, compared to earlier junior Packards; a big plus!Stainless is pretty good.
Pot metal & chrome, not very good.
The rust on the 2 bumpers is only surface rust, so both bumpers are totally restorable!!Fenders are not ready for paint.
They're naked metal that has been sand blasted & treated.
All the flat glass is new w/new seals.
The only glass that is not new, is the rear window glass; it is in good shape & doesn't need to be replaced.
I've got all original lights, which are 6v & look good enough to put on, but they will have to be converted to 12v.
The only new lights I have are 2 new front marker lights.
Story:
This gorgeous, Brilliant Blue classic Packard Touring Car, which was burgundy & black when we first saw it, sat outside at a local garage for appx.
10 years.
A friend of ours bought the car, which had not been started in appx.
10 years.
He then decided he had too many cars & sold it to us in 2018.
My husband tinkered with the original Flat Head 6 engine for appx.
an hour & was super thrilled when it fired up.
He immediately drove it around the parking lot.
He restores old cars for a living & began the restoration using a Whirly Jig auto rotisserie to complete the body off restoration.
The minor flaws on the paint, listed below, are mostly due to unavoidable accidents.
Minor Paint Flaws:
(Photos are the last 4 BLUE ones in the others photo section, before the unfinished parts)There are a few minor flaws in the paint job (shown in photos).
All can be easily repaired.
2 of the flaws show the mud has cracked very slightly; 1 is down the center ridge of the hood, starting at the hood emblem; 1 is appx.
4 on the trunk center (I could NOT get a good photo)2 of the flaws are where we had a cover over the car, the wind blew disturbing the straps, which lightly scratched the very bottom of both front doors.
1 flaw is a small dent with chipped paint on the back left passenger door, close to center.
