Dick, I do know well that I am over the limit... once you get over the limit then justifying new "adoptions" to yourself seems to become surprisingly easy.....
Like said, I gave up considering the Packard Hawk...
The seller told me that it is imports from USA and that the production number/VIN is
58LS-1110

By the way Dick, I drove the '56 Lincoln coupe 1.200 miles without stopping for other than gas and some food 24 hours with my friend from Holland to Germany through Denmark and Sweden to ferry to take us to Helsinki .... and it was minus 15 degrees Celsius when we arrived ... radiator started leaking somewhere in the middle -- other than that we got home ( with some ´+ 600 pounds of Studebaker spareparts in the trunk and cabin... ( we also noticed that the trunk of '56 Lincoln coupe is too low for a Studebaker V8 ... once it was already there sitting in the trunk ...) But driving on our icy winter roads it was good to have some weight on the rear of that mighty Lincoln ... and as you recommended Dick --- I did it: I brought the Lincoln lower to the ground...
