I'd get that thing running and drive it like it is. Just because it's yard art doesn't mean you can't run it down to the 7-11 for a six pack now and then.......
I love the Packard grilles. I think it's one of the best grille designs next to the Airflows. Do you still have the Packard?
Packard is gone, sold the firewall forward to a guy who wanted it for a project. Amazing thing is the shell was rotted badly but the wood inside was still good. If I had nothing else going on I could of built it but I already have more projects than I will ever be able to finish.
