UPDATE: José Gomez came up with a great contemporary advertisement for this 'unearthened' truck.
EARLIER TEXT: Keith Canouse (US) recently attended at the opening of a crypt keeping a 1915 Packard truck. Due to the long distance transmission from somewhere deep below his words came through in bits & pieces; "....in storage since 1936......3300 original miles(has hub odometer)......saw the light of day last month......released from a warehouse built in 1910. I plan on doing A VERY SYMPATHETIC PRESERVATION .......in order to preserve as much patina as humanly possible.... " Transmission suddenly stopped after that due clumsy operation on this side. Luckily the photos of the Packard crypt being opened came without disruption. Two big photos. For a zoom-in on the engine click the photo. The other one will show you the Phaeton Truck(www.Pantheon.org) greeting the first rays of sunlight (click) after 67 years... (photos courtesy Keith Canouse)
