- 2:21oh okay
- 2:23come on out my dear
- 2:25i'm coming out oh my there we go
- 2:28she is absolutely beautiful she is she
- 2:31told me what this is well it is a 19th
- 2:36packard 120 sedan
- 2:39she is rustlemod her engine
- 2:41unfortunately could not be saved
- 2:43it was cracked to the point where
- 2:45it was sad
- 2:47so she's now running a 350 small block
- 2:51while that was being done they decided
- 2:53to make her power steering power brakes
- 2:55thank you
- 2:57because this helps well this beast
- 2:59this beast would have been impossible to
- 3:01stop she weighs almost 5 000 pounds so
- 3:05it's solid steel it's 20 gauge steel
- 3:08uh
- 3:11this is what was they were able to save
- 3:12she sat in a field
- 3:14somewhere in iowa
- 3:16for about 40 years and she was rotted
- 3:19from the ground up
- 3:21so they were able to save the car look
- 3:24at the color on it well that's my choice
- 3:26thank you oh my god the tutor with the
- 3:29gold in that
- 3:30carla she's beautiful yes she is
- 3:33how long have you had this i've only had
- 3:35her three years but when i got her she
- 3:36was dark navy blue
- 3:38which i really hated because she looked
- 3:40like such a beast in blue
- 3:43so and she needed a lot of body work
- 3:46so we put her in and had her redone
- 3:49oh she's beautiful
- 3:51i think so i i chose these colors
- 3:54because they were very close to the
- 3:55original colors
- 3:58the original price sorry oh i know it's
- 4:001100 bucks isn't that funny
- 4:03yeah but you could buy two two shelves
- 4:04in the three two and a half four still a
- 4:07premium car right
- 4:08you could buy two shafts and two and a
- 4:10half fords for that price
- 4:12i love the tires and everything on this
- 4:14car
- 4:15how pretty is that
- 4:17well we changed them from uh
- 4:20do apply to uh
- 4:23radials because they handle better right
- 4:25but getting four inch or three and a
- 4:28half inch white walls was a difficult
- 4:30proposition
- 4:32but it does help and she does pop she
- 4:34does look
- 4:36she looks better with them no i like
- 4:37your exhaust so the original packard
- 4:39would have had one singular pipe coming
- 4:41out
- 4:42i'm not really sure i think it was
- 4:43always dual
- 4:45but it certainly wouldn't be in the
- 4:46square portion
- 4:48right it would have been this the
- 4:49straight round pipes
- 4:52oh my god she's a work of art
- 4:55and this is where the gas cap is right
- 4:56here well it is it wasn't originally
- 4:59originally it was on this side and it
- 5:01looked like a giant nipple
- 5:03it was like well it's not please don't
- 5:05say that one because i got in trouble
- 5:06for that one once well it looked like a
- 5:09protrusion
- 5:10okay and so therefore we had it switched
- 5:13over here because of the way
- 5:15the car was being painted and we put it
- 5:17into a
- 5:20flush gas can
- 5:22so it just blends into the car
- 5:25wow why the packard carla was it
- 5:27something that appealed to you about
- 5:28this because this to me is an automobile
- 5:31yeah
- 5:31that to me is a car
- 5:33or a belly button car as uh some people
- 5:35might call it that to me is a car yes i
- 5:37hear you um and if you don't look at the
- 5:39insignias you have no idea who made them
- 5:42and they're either black white or some
- 5:44shade in between
- 5:45it's got so much character to it it's
- 5:47absolutely that is why i like them these
- 5:49are automobiles yes
- 5:53automobiles how long is it oh it looks
- 5:5518 feet 4 inches okay
- 5:58and what size engine is this she's only
- 6:00running a 350 small block right
- 6:03can we take a look at that
- 6:09oh how cool is that
- 6:12you are one lucky girl
- 6:17so were you always looking for a package
- 6:19always
- 6:20since you were always always wanted one
- 6:22of these i always wanted these
- 6:24and the funny part was i never thought
- 6:26you know i was ever going to find one
- 6:27that i could afford to buy yes and
- 6:31went to a car show and she pulled around
- 6:33the corner and she was blue and she
- 6:34needed a lot of body help
- 6:36and i thought oh
- 6:38with a little bit of love that could be
- 6:40my car exactly and it was love at first
- 6:42sight it really works things here
- 6:44there's like lights and everything
- 6:46they've been on the original car as well
- 6:48so these are out actually what they had
- 6:50here was another set of bullet lights
- 6:52okay that i haven't i have one at home
- 6:54but i can't find the other one the
- 6:56minute i find another one these two will
- 6:58be gone okay and i'll put the bullet
- 7:00lights there i put these on because this
- 7:03car needed this where i live we don't
- 7:05have street lights
- 7:06and i needed more light than this car
- 7:08could give me
- 7:10so my husband put those lights on at the
- 7:11end very nice
- 7:13look at the size of these lamps too
- 7:15yeah they give you no light ah but they
- 7:17look good they look great
- 7:19and i love these yeah the little bullet
- 7:22lights oh it's beautiful
- 7:25i was actually thinking of taking them
- 7:26off and chroming them but i thought no
- 7:28this car's got enough chrome it doesn't
- 7:29need more chrome
- 7:31it looks just right i mean normally i
- 7:33disagree with you i'm a chrome kind of
- 7:35guy but this is just perfect but she's
- 7:37carrying so much chrome now on the front
- 7:39end look at it all it's lovely oh i love
- 7:42your wipers too
- 7:44all of my liquids they work they work
- 7:47by little eight inch wipers
- 7:50but the problem is their vacuum
- 7:52so they sort of work and then they kind
- 7:54of go back boom
- 7:56and then they work and then they go back
- 7:59you know what there is something magical
- 8:01about
- 8:03running boards
- 8:04what just drives me insane i love those
- 8:06things
- 8:08and you're right it brings a character
- 8:10may i open the by all means i don't know
- 8:12what kind of a mess she is inside i
- 8:13brought the dog today
- 8:15that's okay
- 8:17so this is the original interior it is
- 8:19the original interior it is not the
- 8:21original steering column and and
- 8:22steering wheel obviously
- 8:26oh look at the size of the clock carla
- 8:28isn't the clock crazy
- 8:31so i wonder what the options were back
- 8:34in the day i don't know
- 8:36um a car like this i really don't know
- 8:39and you gotta love the suicide doors no
- 8:41please don't call them suicide doors

- 8:52side oh it's going to be cold tonight so
- 8:54i took jackets and sweaters see that let
- 8:56me go around the other absolutely
- 9:03so i'll open the reverse opening doors
- 9:05there you go
- 9:06oh my god it doesn't take you long to
- 9:08learn there you go
- 9:10this looks more comfortable than my
- 9:11couch yes isn't it wonderful
- 9:14look at this
- 9:16with the original packards would have
- 9:18been this
- 9:19like luxury that is yes that is the
- 9:21original interior only it's copied
- 9:24but that was the original interior
- 9:27like even with these lamps
- 9:29everything
- 9:31they were well ahead of their time but
- 9:32they were brought into the market the
- 9:34north american market to uh rival uh
- 9:37rolls-royce
- 9:39so would this been a step above like the
- 9:41cadillac this was this was the ultimate
- 9:45this is the american rolls royce for the
- 9:48for the normal family yeah i mean when
- 9:50you get up into the higher
- 9:52what's it's i mean you're going to end
- 9:53up with a lot more car right
- 9:55again dog oh don't worry about the dog
- 9:59but look at that with the bench seats
- 10:01and everything else
- 10:02it did not have a console
- 10:04that was a console that was built for
- 10:06this car custom-made okay um because
- 10:08there was no place to put anything a cup
- 10:10of water a bottle nothing and we're
- 10:12canadian and you have to have we have to
- 10:14have a cup holder so that was originally
- 10:16built as a cup holder my husband only
- 10:17came home with that
- 10:19about a week ago and said look we've got
- 10:21one for the floor too look what i bought
- 10:23it's canadian canadian tire there you go
- 10:25yeah
- 10:26but look at that
- 10:28that's a work of art right there it's an
- 10:31interesting clock
- 10:32so the original car would not have had
- 10:34things like air conditioning and all
- 10:36those things oh but it has air
- 10:37conditioning
- 10:38oh yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah four by four
- 10:41by 60 kilometers an hour
- 10:45that'll do
- 10:46you open more windows more vents four
- 10:49windows four vents yes open the uh the
- 10:52hood cowling
- 10:53and do 60k and you've got it yes okay
- 10:57so i love the gear shifter look at the
- 10:58size of that thing well that was the
- 11:00original length and size of the gear
- 11:02shift however that is an automatic
- 11:05so how do you shift from drive
- 11:08you depress the center point
- 11:11that is so cool
- 11:13wow but you can see it has no clutch
- 11:16right
- 11:18and that is what a handbrake
- 11:20i'm sorry this one
- 11:21no that's the handbrake that's the
- 11:23handrail which rattles like crazy
- 11:26gives a character oh well this car has a
- 11:27lot of character yeah it's called
- 11:28character that if that's what it's
- 11:30called in a vintage car i've learned the
- 11:32hardware you call it character okay uh
- 11:34then this car has a tremendous amount of
- 11:36character
- 11:37and that's why you love her so much i
- 11:40love her because of her exterior not her
- 11:41interior
- 11:43no but you know what that's not so bad
- 11:45carla i wouldn't be that uh shy about it
- 11:48i think and certainly
- 11:49they didn't have seat belts in the 40s
- 11:52you're like 50 kids in the back of the
- 11:54car and it wouldn't matter right how
- 11:56much space is in there in the trunk
- 11:59can we spell none
- 12:03let's have a look what none looks like
- 12:05then
- 12:06oh wow this is a beast which is a solid
- 12:10metal yes will it stay up yes it will
- 12:12okay
- 12:13i've learned to trust it
- 12:15yeah you're right again i have a dog
- 12:16with me so
- 12:18dog bed it's all about the puppy it's
- 12:20all about my dog
- 12:21wow that's interesting so not big at all
- 12:25right
- 12:25tiny tiny tiny but you gotta understand
- 12:27that this is the
- 12:29the second year that they actually
- 12:30produced
- 12:31a trunk before that it was a rumble seat
- 12:35okay that what flipped this way you flip
- 12:38this way and you could get into it and
- 12:39sit
- 12:40although why you would want to sit
- 12:41outdoors like that i don't know i guess
- 12:43it's the novelty of it all isn't it
- 12:46you're good yeah
- 12:48that trunk lid weighs about 80 pounds
- 12:50yeah
- 12:51so beautiful
- 12:53now you know why she weighs almost 5
- 12:55000. you've done an incredible job with
- 12:57the color combination thank you
- 12:59like why this color combination is that
- 13:01something you always thought about no
- 13:03what i wanted was a color that was not
- 13:05going to make her look odd
- 13:07this color here at night is black which
- 13:09is probably what she should have been in
- 13:11the first place
- 13:12but during the day she is this deep
- 13:14burgundy color that like i mean the eye
- 13:17picks it up i'm not sure what the camera
- 13:18does but it's a deep burgundy color and
- 13:20it's that metallic finish right
- 13:22beautiful
- 13:23and painted when where where
- 13:27right here yeah right here in toronto
- 13:28wow
- 13:30i love it
- 13:34and then the gold was because of the
- 13:36interior okay
- 13:38now this ornament here ah she's
- 13:41beautiful the lady of speed
- 13:44and again the original packards had
- 13:45these
- 13:47and this part here is what material
- 13:49class really that's why i get so nervous
- 13:51when people come around and play with it
- 13:54i'm like
- 13:55i can't replace it don't do that
- 14:03how lovely is this car oh
- 14:05i i think she's lovely i think so too
- 14:07you know when you go to these car shows
- 14:09there's certain cars that really pop
- 14:11thank you she's one of those that's
- 14:13caught my eye the first time that's how
- 14:14i feel about her that's why i got her it
- 14:17makes your heart skip a beard doesn't it
- 14:18yeah this is love
- 14:20it's it's pride of ownership
- 14:23with all its faults no but that's okay
- 14:25you pay extra for those things and uh
- 14:28she's just magnificent no she's proud of
- 14:30ownership and it's pulse
- 14:32right it's really helpful i can't take
- 14:34her to i can't take her anywhere except
- 14:36to a car show because if i park her in
- 14:38an ordinary parking lot within 10
- 14:40minutes i've got a crowd yes and it's
- 14:42like forget social distancing like go
- 14:45call us
- 14:46causing problems again
- 14:48not doing that
- 14:51i love everything about it like the
- 14:52front grills everything
- 14:56man is she pretty
- 14:58should have seen her when they took her
- 14:59apart
- 15:01it was sad to see
- 15:04because all of it is pieces
- 15:06they didn't start making amalgamated
- 15:08cars until 1946 when they came back into
- 15:10production they went out of production
- 15:14everything here comes apart like the
- 15:15fenders all come off
- 15:17the cowling comes off the nose piece
- 15:19drops off
- 15:21everything here falls apart it's all you
- 15:23can see where it's put together
- 15:26that when you put your hand down in here
- 15:28well you can't feel it here but you can
- 15:29see it here see it's all separate
- 15:32all right
- 15:33it's all rubber gasket it is yes yes yes
- 15:36it's all rubber gasketed so each one of
- 15:38these pieces comes off and the car was
- 15:40assembled that way
- 15:41so it has some advantages that way too
- 15:43well yeah if you have a crumpled finish
- 15:45you can take one fender off and keep
- 15:46going yeah
- 15:48oh it would look pretty strange but you
- 15:49could
- 15:50now where was this made did you say it
- 15:52was made in detroit detroit in the
- 15:54package in the packard factory which is
- 15:56still standing to this day no way
- 15:58because the building was so well built
- 16:00they don't know how to take it apart
- 16:01just like the cars it's so well built so
- 16:04why did they stop making the packets
- 16:05then okay in 1941 they stopped making
- 16:08packards because they uh went into
- 16:11production making engines for b-29s for
- 16:14the bombers yeah for the bombers
- 16:16when they came back into production in
- 16:181946
- 16:20they went through a design change and
- 16:22the cars became more bubbled
- 16:24and they integrated the fenders they
- 16:26integrated the trunks they didn't have
- 16:28cowling they entered they made a hood
- 16:30they lost all of what packard was
- 16:32character yes and so i don't look at
- 16:34anything past 46.
- 16:37they were then bought or sold too i'm
- 16:39not sure whether it was bought or sold i
- 16:41haven't figured that one out yet to
- 16:42studebaker oh okay now they still
- 16:45continue to manufacture under their own
- 16:47name
- 16:48until about 1958 and that was the last
- 16:50packard ever made the 1958 bucket okay
- 16:56this is beautiful though but the 195th
- 16:58from 1948
- 17:00on
- 17:02uh
- 17:04people weren't buying them anymore
- 17:05because they looked like today they
- 17:07looked like everybody else's car yes
- 17:09they got to be bubble cars and nobody
- 17:11wanted them
- 17:13so they changed them to a bubble car and
- 17:15then nobody really wanted them
- 17:18so i have to ask you what would be okay
- 17:20to go for a quick drive
- 17:22where would you like i know stefan step
- 17:23in
- 17:24look at this step in have fun pretty use
- 17:26this oh and it's comfortable well it has
- 17:29to be because this is your suspension oh
- 17:31this is it that's it
- 17:36and you have to love her a little bit of
- 17:38course
- 17:39okay but you drive her everywhere i do
- 17:43like you drive further than i bring my
- 17:44mg i'm always afraid to come this far
- 17:46but i always drive her
- 17:48don't have a problem now the gauges that
- 17:50we see there carla they would have been
- 17:53like the original they are original my
- 17:55problem is i have to switch from miles
- 17:57to kilometers which drives
- 18:04look at that look at the front of this
- 18:06thing it's like literally in a rolls
- 18:08royce should we go down well she would
- 18:10yeah of course i'm going to go that way
- 18:11but that's what she was built in this
- 18:12competition to the rolls royce but it's
- 18:15got that look to it it also has that
- 18:18smell of course
- 18:24this is where the fun starts when people
- 18:25start looking at your car to the point
- 18:27where they can't drive
- 18:29you know what you have or they drive are
- 18:30you going up there you're going up the
- 18:32highway and they drive into you that's
- 18:34interesting it's a distraction isn't it
- 18:39in a good way
- 18:43and the brakes on this thing are drum
- 18:45brakes no no no thank you they are disc
- 18:48brakes disc brakes okay
- 18:50but the original would have been dry
- 18:52they were drums
- 18:53and you needed twice the distance to
- 18:55stop because you got five thousand
- 18:57pounds of metal behind it's like a ship
- 18:58isn't it you gotta really plan ahead oh
- 19:01god
- 19:02but she rides comfortably she rides
- 19:04beautifully i told you she's very
- 19:05comfortable car she just has no
- 19:07suspension but then
- 19:10their leaves
- 19:11their leaf suspension so yeah
- 19:16so you bounce around a little bit that's
- 19:17okay
