[Healeys] Non-Healey question.

[Chris Scholz]

This is an odd question but I see so much automobile knowledge on this email list that I would like to ask if anyone is familiar with the 1953 Packard Caribbean convertible?   Only 750 were made.  It was based off the 1952 concept car.  I have almost finished the nut and bolt restoration of my '59 100-6 and have always liked the '53 Packard and have browsed around at a few.   There are some for sale that need a lot of work for $10,000.  Fully restored models go for six figures.  There is so much intelligence on this email list that I feel someone has experience with Packards and how hard it is to get parts for  these.  Still love the lines of my big Healey more than any other.
