The '''Packard El Paso''' is one of three [[Packard]] coustom 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 El Paso is a woody station wagon with a hand-stitched cowhide interior, roof rack, and seats six and lugage. | |||
