The Packard Parisian is one of three Packard concept cars built by Carl Schneider and Peter Portugal of Eureka, California. The three vehicles were inspired by design study drawings that were done in the early 1950's by Packard, but were never put into production or even made into official dream cars. The Parisian is a European Gran Tourer that was originally penned by Pininfarina. Schneider discovered the renderings at the Paris Retromobile in the early 1990's and purchased them. Starting with a 1952 Packard 250 series Mayfair two-door hartop, Schneider stretched the hood seven inches and used two sets of left and right quarter panels to create the tailfins. The quater windows also do not roll down, becuase they are right above the rear wheel wells and there is no room for them to retract.
