Classic Car Overview

1956 Packard Caribbean Convertible 374 V-8 Push button automatic transmission with unique reversable seat cushions. Shows 686 miles on speedometer.1 of 276 made Location Concord NC. First sold at Wendell Packard Houston Texas. Bought in Charlotte NC. This car was 234th of 276 off the assembly line. Vin is 5699-1234. This car is not on the register list and the Packard Club registry shows 61 surviving cars so a very limited number of these left.

Almost completely restored Caribbean for sale in Concord, NC 28462. Clear title. It was driven often until health problems.

This car has been in the family for 25 or more years and always kept inside.

Car has been sitting in a metal building for 2 years or so. Push Button transmission that worked well before my father in-law used it to stop the car from hitting the back of the building. Shifting Pin is bent. The car will probably need valve stem seals due to sitting so long. It ran fine and shifted fine the last time I was in it going to a car show with Pop, my father-in-law. The car has the original rebuilt motor and rebuilt transmission in the car. Dual Rochester carburetors with a bat-wing breather. Car color is not the same as the paint code that the tag says. I worked with him on this project for more than 10 years. I cannot repair items listed so I have decided to sell it as.

Many extra parts come with this car. Extra hood, trunk lid both already painted, lots of extra chrome, 2 glove box liners, valve stem seals, 4 wiring diagram and 1 glove box door painted and a push button trouble shooting stand mounted on a board that moves the shifting motor as you push the P,D,R,N selector buttons including all the solenoid including auto park. Its the only one I have ever seen.

The outside pictures are 2 years old the rest were made inside because I cant move the car. With a bent shift pin in the transmission.

I know one of the worst enemies to a car is to leave it sitting so thats why I am selling. Please ask any questions or make comments. I will work with anyone who wants the car and needs it shipped.

Thanks for looking.
