Historical Entry: (Added by: Bill M on 2016-04-07)

Harry DuBois opened a Packard dealership in late 1955, only in business thru 1956. Because they were so new & had no previous sales record, the company was unable to obtain Caribbean cars. They created their own line of specials called "Esquires", turning senior production Packard cars into Caribbean type vehicles. Most were changed by adding Caribbean side rear fender moldings, antennas, hood, & Esquire scripts on front fenders & trunk lid. I believe there were about a dozen hardtops, and 1 sedan.

Address update: 3240 Wilson Blvd. [1 block west of the intersection of Wilson Blvd & Fairfax Dr.] If you focus in on the location using Google maps satellite view, you can see the outside vehicle ramp to park cars on the roof. The location is now "Arlington Tires".

Years ago I drove my 1955 Packard Patrician up & down that roof ramp. It was rather tight, as the ramp curves sharply & is quite steep, so much that it's hard to walk up the ramp.
