    Now that's a beaut' - interwar car styling perfection. If I'm not mistaken Packard was held in higher regard that Cadillac back in the day.

    That sound! Even with the background, you can hear the mechanicals. Whether it is the slight rumble from the engine or the bird-like cooing of the transmission, nothing else sounds like a Packard, especially in first gear!

    The beautiful sounding straight 8 under the hood made this a very powerful car for its day. Our rural road system at the time was not always up to that though (the only freeway at the time was the PA Turnpike) Love seeing those original gauges working!!!
    Packard's days of being a true luxury car were numbered though by 1940.

    If only they could have survived, what great cars we might have had today.

    Nice tour of El Segundo. They used to have gourmet catering trucks once a week and you could buy lunch at the curb and eat at the picnic tables and check out the museum. I have always wondered where the money comes from for that place. High rent area for sure.

    Is this the same model, or even the same car, that was used on the TV show, “Banacek”?

    The CAR of the MOVIE STARS and the NEW YORK 5th Avenue high brow set. VERY pricey even its day.

    There is no better designed car, even the cords and Dusenburgs are not styled as well.
