After many Many many tries I finally asked my son for help and
he was able to get me to my new Avatar.

But I thought I would see how many could figure aout why I chose
this particualr one.

Yea, it is a Packard Clipper. My uncle owned one a few years back.
You didn't pick that just because your name is Packard did you? :D

You guys are good.
I was born the year the first Packard Clipper came out
and I ended up with the nickname.

Born in Detroit, home of Packard. Went to school in South Bend, home of Studebaker.

Close as it gets. Looked like the long hood with the ab-roller lady.

"Looked like the long hood with the ab-roller lady."

If I recall right the long hood was to house a inline 8.
I worked on the plant when they built the first V8, the pistons looked about the size on my head. I think that was about the time they sold out to Studabaker who put it in their Golden Hawk.
