Ark-La-Tex Packard members David & Peggy Stewart are on day 8 of their trip.
Enjoy,
Todd Bates
Not much going on today, just meetings and lunch with the vendors. The view from our patio door in the morning is wonderful, this morning it was 60 degrees, supposed to get to 75. The vendor area as you can see from the photos is poor, there is some stuff for the late 40's and 50's, but not much.
The photos of the fiber glassed bodied Panther are interesting. This was Packards attempt at the sports car, T-Bird, Corvette market. It is quite a car, straight 8 with McCulloch supercharger and it would do 131.1 MPH. The owner bought it 40 years ago, has 28,000 miles on it, of course he doesn't drive it. The pretty day today is emptying the trailers, the trailer queens get a bath and polish. Someone said they have 51 cars for display and 40 or so for judging.
