1952 Packard

Описание: The 1950 Packard sedan, exemplified by models like the Standard Eight and Deluxe Eight Touring Sedans from the brand’s Twenty-Third Series, embodied post-World War II American luxury with its emphasis on comfort, durability, and elegant styling.  These rear-wheel-drive four-door vehicles typically featured a smooth-running inline-eight engine displacing 288 cubic inches and delivering 135 horsepower at 3,600 RPM, mated to a three-speed manual transmission or the innovative Ultramatic automatic option in higher trims.  With a 120-inch wheelbase and curb weights around 3,800 pounds, they provided spacious interiors for six passengers, often trimmed in premium fabrics and wood accents, appealing to affluent buyers seeking refined highway cruising.  Priced from about $2,100 for the base Standard Eight to $2,383 for the Deluxe, over 28,000 Deluxe sedans alone were produced that year, marking a high point for Packard before intensifying competition from rivals like Cadillac began eroding its market share.

I might be taking on the biggest project of my life… I found a huge lot of antique and vintage cars for sale, and I’m seriously considering buying the entire collection. Some of these cars are decades old, untouched, covered in dust, and begging for a second life. But before I make a decision, I want your advice.

Are these cars worth saving? Are they rare enough to justify the cost? Could this be the ultimate barn find score — or a massive money pit? In this video, I walk through the cars, show their condition, talk through what I know so far, and break down my concerns about the deal.

If you’ve restored classic cars, bought project cars, flipped old vehicles, or you just love vintage metal, I’d really appreciate your input. Let me know in the comments: Should I buy this entire lot of old cars… or walk away?

I’ll be reading all of your suggestions, warnings, ideas, and opinions. This community knows cars, and your experience could save me thousands — or push me into my biggest adventure yet.

If you enjoy old-school restorations, barn finds, hot rods, project car builds, or watching forgotten cars get a second chance, make sure to subscribe so you don’t miss what happens next. Whether I buy these or not… the journey is just getting started.

Thanks for watching — now tell me what YOU would do!
