RHD V8 Packard Roadtest Article Image

Here is a roadtest by a British publication of a right-hand drive V8 Packard. The V8 cars were converted to RHD by Leonard Williams, the London Packard dealer. From 1939 thru 1954 the RHD cars were assembled at Detroit; before that by Packard Canada starting in 1933 I believe.

There are several things interesting about the RHD conversion. Firstly the V8 models were the first to Dave Czirr knowledge where Packard did not do the conversions themselves, either in Detroit or at Packard Canada. Secondly, the omission of the clutch pedal let them move the two pedals and dimmer switch to the right in the conventional arrangement, previously notably in the early to mid-30s, the accelerator was placed between the brake and the clutch due to the confined space.

Steel Magazine, May 9th 1949 Image

Detailed study of how a large manufacturing organization got that way�how if started, how it changed over the years, the dominant personalities who made its history, its physical concept today and where it appears to be heading for tomorrow- all combine to make a case history representative of a large section of U. S. industry in the twentieth century. The editors of STEEL have selected Packard Motor Car Co., Detroit, for such an analysis, the first of its kind ever attempted. The choice proved timely, for Packard is now celebrating a Golden Anniversary and has just introduced new models, as well as a unique new automatic transmission, commemorating the event.
