This was a 4 1/2 year complete nut and bolt restoration with the highest attention to detail. Undercarriage completely disassembled, leaf springs re-arched and the frame, front springs and rear leaf springs were powder coated. The Wood body was completely disassembled, recreated in the original Honduras Mahogany and Eastern White Maple. The completed body was fitted to the restored frame....then taken back to the wood workers shop, completely taken apart and 12 coats of quality varnish applied. After all wood pieces were complete, the wood body was reassembled. This process alone was done by one craftsman and took 3 years.The Metal body was bead blasted, metal prepped and finished in the correct Packard Loyola Marroon Poly color. All original Chrome work wasprofessionally re-plated to extremely high standards. The Interior and Upholstery are correct and reflect extreme attention to detail.
