"Ask The Man Who Owns One!"

Packards have always been a cut above. In the 1920s, the marque outsold Cadillac and was considered the American Rolls-Royce.

Today, if you want to find out about Packards, all you need to do is ask Robert Escalante. Escalante owns Custom Auto Service, a Santa Ana shop that is known throughout the country for Packard restoration and maintenance.
