1951 Packard 250 Convertible

• Cream '51 Packard 250 convertible with a maroon top, photographed in the GR Auto Gallery showroom: paint glossy and smooth in the panel close-ups, the big toothy grille and bumpers bright, wire wheels with wide whitewalls clean.
• The top is photographed both raised (tight, clean canvas with a clear rear window) and folded, so both states can be judged — a step better than most convertible galleries.
• Maroon-and-white interior dominates the second half of the sample and looks freshly trimmed throughout — pleated seats, door cards and carpets all crisp.
• The engine bay is never photographed in the 16 viewed — the straight-eight and the Ultramatic the rear fender script advertises can't be judged from this gallery.
• Underside is never photographed either.

Money: at $73,900 the cosmetics and cabin photograph like a finished restoration; hold the price until the hood and the underside have been seen, because neither appears here.
