The Owners manual for the 526 states:
"The gauge on the instrument board should show 20-35 pounds pressure while running at twenty-five miles per hour" 1. What rpm is nominal for 25 mph? 2. What pressure should be at 40mph? 45mph?

When I bought my FIRST Packard in April 1963 from a junkyard in PA, next to the '37 Twelve Formal Sedan was a Nash.
I saved the lady from possibly going to the crusher.... Attach file:  20220529_192052.jpg (275.13 KB)

Back in 1966 (I was just getting my feet wet with Packards)... I had a chance to buy an identical 2/4 in Fredericksburg, VA for $1,500. I passed it up because the Packard guru in D.C. told me that that particular car was not a 'good driver'.
Oh, well....great memories!

1937 paint schemes discontinued?

Documentation indicates that for the 1937 models, introductory paint schemes E, F, K,S, and Z "will be later discontinued."
Does any one have an documentation certifying that Packard actually discontinued those paint schemes? IF so...WHEN? Attach file: 20220502_122706.jpg (184.61 KB)

Does anyone know what the hammer price was on the 1938 Super Eight Convertible Sedan at the Worldwide Auctioneers event in Auburn today?

What a beautiful original! Hopefully it will be maintained in that condition.

I prefer not to be involved in the judging scene, but have always wondered how judges
consider grungy old data plates vs shiny new reproductions?!?!?!

IMHO the R of ROI does not have to be a '$'.
Bear with me a true story.... Back in 1968 I was shocked when my mailman in Damascus, MD bought a $10,000 Winnebago motor home. I asked him:"How can you justify spending that kind of money on something you use just a couple times a year?" He replied:"When you go out to dinner, do you go to SAVE MONEY?..No...it's called STYLE OF LIVING! It's simply HOW you enjoy spending your money! You don't try to justify everything. Talk to a boat owner about ROI!"
