Well I made the long drive to check this out and it was indeed a 37 Packard Six that looks similar to the touring sedan in Bob's last post.

It was this old guys mothers who bought it new. He last drove the car in 1957 then parked it. Unfortunately it was NOT stored in a barn and was comlpetely rusted...Wisconsin winters will do that ya know!

This was one of those stories I just HAD to follow up on or forever regret that I hadn't... becuase ya just never know!

By the way, did ya hear the one about...
