| This vehicle is very unusual and a bit of a mystery as the Packard Formal Sedan was normally on a 1604 chassis. There is a theory that as there were about 100 1603 Super Eights unsold when the 17th Series arrived, some of these may have been fitted with formal attire to help the model run-out sale. This vehicle was partially restored in 1964 and has almost 90,0000 miles from original. |

| This 533 came into Australia as a Hire car, it was used as a school bus in the 1930's in Adelaide, South Australia. i purchased the car in 1974 and have repainted the esterior. The interior is mostly original, although some renovation was carried out in 1955. |

| This particular Packard was imported to Australia as RHD (most probably from Canada) and fitted with a Richards (South Australia) body. The body is identical to those fitted to the Studebaker President Eight in Australia. The Packard was exhibited at the 1938 Adelaide Motor Show by Sporting Cars Limited. |

| Shots of Predictor taken by one of the museum staff as a present for Howard Hanson in 1982. Unfortunately the staffer didn't have time to develop film first (long before digital cameras and 1 hr photo), just sent it to the person who arranged the surprise. It was very underexposed due to horrible lighting in area where they had to the car. |
