Message from the owner:
645 INDIVIDUAL CUSTOM PACKARD COACHWORD BY RAYMOND DIETRICH
Partial list of Best in Show or Peoples Choice Trophies: Hobbs, NM (twice); San Angelo, TX; Carlsbad NM. Albuquerque. NM (where it received AACA Senior and Best of Show) also where Dietrich retired and came to the show and was photo'd with the Packard. He was quoted "This was my favorite and best work".
Brass Plate under passenger seat is 1866 the 3rd of 3 made with the same body blocks. The 2nd is lost and the first is owned in SC also by Paul Anario a Head Concours Judge at the finest shows such as Pebble Beach, Hilton Head, Amelia Island etc.
Suicide doors and raked front wind screen are the many features making this 29 convertible coupe quite unique.
Current owner 15 yrs Gregory Collection Previous to that Orie Jones for 36 years. No public sale on either existing Packard's. Both are quite different as they are individual customs by Dietrich.
Much history comes with car.
Truly one of the rarest Packard's in existence.
