HISTORY OF THE 1955 PACKARD CARIBBEAN CONVERSION: Factory authorized dealer conversion to Caribbean – All paperwork and history – Senior car by CCCA and ACCA – Ground-up restoration – $100,000 spent in materials and labor – Just completed 2009 – Power steering – Power brakes – Twin antennas – 24 carat script – Caribbean trim – Tri color paint – 39,816 miles believed to be actual – Automatic transmission – 352/260 HP engine HISTORY FROM THE PREVIOUS OWNER: In 1955 Packard offered the top end Caribbean model only as a convertible. Customer demand for a 2-door hardtop version cause some dealers (with factory blessing) to apply Caribbean trim and special paint to several top of the line 2-door hardtops. In 1955 Packard did not offer the Caribbean in the 2-door hardtop and it is widely thought that only 5 Caribbean cars were “officially” produced by the factory. There is no difference between the 1955 and 1956 cars. Only 500 were built in the special Caribbean trim before Packard ceased business. this car was built late in 1955 and was ordered wtih 1956 trim and has all 1956 accessories typical of a 1956 car. It just had a complete ground-up restoration and still has under 40,000 original miles. This car is equipped with a tinted windshield, dual heaters, Twin-Ultramatic transmission, 4-wheel torsion level suspension, 352 V8 rated at 260 HP, power steeering, power brakes, radial whitewall tires, 2-speed wipers, padded dash leather trimmed interior, exterior courtesy light, and back up lights. The Caribbean trim consists of the special side mouldings, special Jade Green accent paint; 24-carat gold script, dual rear antennas, tri-color interior and wire wheels. With its many advanced features, Packard had produced a powerful car to compete with the luxury cars of the period but it came too late as 1956 was the last year of production for this famous automobile company under the “Packard” name. This significant and rare car is considered a “senior car” according to Packars International Club and is worthy of rally or concours events.

Financing

Finance rates as low as 8.9%.


We know that classic car financing can pose a unique challenge. Although a vintage or exotic car can be an excellent investment, some financial institutions attempt to apply standard “used car” rules for financing a classic car, which in many cases can make loan approval difficult.


We work closely with many banking institutions that understand and recognize the collector value of classic cars and view them as an investment, which allows us to help you get the financing you need so that you can have the car you have dreamed of.


Terms available up to 144 Months
