Packard Seat Leather Upholstery- Front Seat Lower on 2040-parts.com

Garner, North Carolina, United States
Condition:For parts or not working

Just opened a box of leather pieces from an auction and these pieces matched up. I believe this is for a front seat lower of a 1955 Packard Caribbean.  Some of the pieces save for the piping and the 1-2 inch attaching cloth. It is white pleated seat facing with some of the padding coming off the underside. The rest is supposed to be light blue but in certain light has a greenish tinge to the color. Why the covering was disassembled I do not know. Maybe it was removed from a junked car piece by piece.  I think the passenger side pieces could be made from these remnants by flipping them. Good for use as a pattern if you don't have one. As I complete the other coverings, I will list them. Any questions or more specific photos, just ask and I'll try to oblige.

Porsche Panamera Shooting Brake Estate Concept at Paris?

Fri, 27 Jul 2012

It looks like Porsche will be showing a concept estate version of the Panamera at Paris – perhaps the Porsche Panamera Shooting Brake? The rumours that Porsche are preparing an estate version of the Panamera for the Paris Motor Show in September are gathering pace, and it now seems almost certain there will be a Panamera Shooting Brake Concept to upset Porsche purists when the Paris Motor Show opens on 27th September. Although the Panamera Estate Concept is highly probable, it seems likely any production car is some way off – probably 2015 at the earliest – before which we’ll see the Panamera get a facelift (which could arrive at Paris too) and even a Panamera Coupe and convertible on a shortened wheelbase.

Mon, 19 Nov 2012

The slow-selling Honda CR-Z hybrid hatchback gets a new lithium-ion battery pack and more-powerful electric for the 2013 model year. The change from a nickel metal hydride battery pack helps boost output from the hybrid powertrain's electric motor from 10 kilowatts to 15 kilowatts. The powertrain's combined output is now rated at 130 hp at 6,000 rpm, up 8 hp from the 2012 model.

Alfa Romeo MiTo Maserati – the courtesy car

Wed, 27 Jan 2010

The Alfa Romeo MiTo Maserati - the Maserati courtesy car As you’ll know if you read here regularly, we like the Alfa Romeo MiTo. Sure, it has its faults (what car doesn’t) but it’s very stylish, remarkably well put together (certainly for an Alfa), fun to drive and holds its value well (which is a real first for Alfa Romeo). But it’s not necesarily the sort of car that would register on the radar of the average Maserati owner.
