  • Oh baby...

  • so you liked the car huh ?

    she's a beauty

  • Yes,she is...I was noticing at other Packard videos(this one too)that 56 Packards look a lot like the "redesigned" 57 Mercurys(being Fords with style and class was Mercurys original mission)And that other Packards looked a lot like 57/58 Buicks.

  • Well... I think they stand alone, and 56 was the last true Packard, the 57 Packard was a merge with Studebaker, and was disasterous in design. This is a Caribbean hardtop, rare, most were convertibles.

  • Brings back memories.

  • Yeah, I think both Lincoln and Packard had the better models in 1956

  • A gorgeous car. The engine sounds beautiful as well. Sorry Cadillac, but the 1956 Coupe de Ville could only dream of looking as pretty as the 1956 Packard 400.

  • I love my 56 Patrician! Thanks for a nice video of a nice car. Mine is in the early stages of restoration, but is registered and road worthy. It is a huge hit at local cruise nights and car shows!

  • Great looking car. I wonder if Packard wouldn't have been better off if they had stayed independent and hadn't been merging with Studebaker just as they were getting the 55's ready to introduce.

  • Ask The Man Who Owns One -

  • ......gorgeous....simply gorgeous. They (55/56's) are rounded, but straight. Not a dowdy early 50's look, but not a rocketship on wheels like most cars looked by 58. The 56 is also a better car mechanically.I have a 55, same color as this one, but I like the full length stainless strip on yours (I considered locating the 56 trim and applying it to mine at one point, but did not.)

  • The 1956 Packard was one of the best looking cars of the Fifties. It has the best blend of flashiness and reserve. Outstanding innovations, too.

  • Wow, there will never be a brand Like Packard again! Great car you got there ....
