My Grandfathers Packard

Four(4) door - Model 2362. Purchased new by my grandfather in Casper, Wyoming, dry cool climate did much to preserve the car. He put seat covers on it the day after he bought it and did not take them off until about 1980. The original automatic transmission went out and my grandfather purchase another Packard for parts. Replaced automatic with standard that had overdrive. This was early 1970s. My Grandfather had the car painted about that same time. Unfortunately, the color he purchased came out to be almost lime green. After my grandmother passed away my grandfather transferred ownership of the Packard to me in 1990. Got the car shipped home to Richmond, Tx in 1991. Kept the car running until about 2001. Put it up on stands in an attempt to remove the oil pan to replace the gasket. That did not happen because I had no way of lifting the engine in my garage. Its been in that state ever since. Asking 5K including spare parts that where shipped with the car. Was running when I put it up on blocks, have not attempted to run it since then.
