[QUOTE="Carolina Photo Guy, post: 83856, member: 1556"] I love a classic ANYTHING. This '51 Packard Patrician 400 is a fine example. While I may not have worked on these when they were new, they weren't very old when I started. I remember this one Packard Carribean, a '55 if I remember correctly that had an irritating miss but only on deceleration! The engine was a 292 ci Hemi with cross ram induction. This bitch could FLY!!! It turned out to have a loose ceramic insulator on #8 spark plug that was grounding out the fire on decel. THAT was a fun one! God I miss being able to do that stuff. Now, I am not physically able to play with the fun toys. :( But that doesn't mean that I have forgotten EVERYTHING! [/QUOTE]
