Re: Packard Twelve to go Public

WHA? I thought they gave up on that and want to sell the company. It even says so on their website http://packardmotorcarcompany.com

The owners of Packard Motor Car Company are offering the Company for sale. Assets include the Packard Automobile Name Trademark, the Packard V-12 running prototype, engineering data and photo files, and spare parts and toolage.
Ah I see this post was made in 2005... that news was posted May 10 2007
And yes the company seems somewhat like Tucker did, except these guys had a prototype when they were supposed to. :P But actually if you look at their prototype, I'd have to say it's a combination of a 90s Jaguar, a newer Bentley, and a late 90s Buick, all mushed together with a signature 1930's Packard grille. But lacking the finishing touch of the swan hood ornament...
