I have modified many of the Eastman #2 cameras over the years. I've owned and tried "them all" but I always come back to this design for it's strength and durability. You can hang a 6 pound Voigtlander Petzval on the front and the standards don't complain. The Packard is inside the camera between the front inner bulkhead and the first bellows pleat. For modern shutters you just open the packard up like it's not there. But for soft focus barrel lenses the Packard can get about 1/20th second exposures and down, and Bulb, and Time. It's complete with tripod block and bed extension. It has a beautiful new bellows and it's ready for another 100 years. Spent a lot of money restoring it so, sorry, I can't give it away. $890 includes shipping it to you in USA.
