Photo caption on back from Packard News Service: Combining new performance with modern blending of traditional Packard character lines in exterior design, the 1951 Packard 300 becomes the new 'Boss of the Road,' low to the road, functional styling provides the Packard 300 with greater road ability and pleasing appearance, rear seat passengers sit further forward of the rear axel for an improved limousine ride, a lower, fade away hood highlights the new 'Guide-line' fenders of the 300 by offering greater road visibility, advanced design of the rear fenders combine with an enlarged trunk to give a sparkling new look to the rear section, a redesigned grille, protected by massive new wrap around bumpers, is distinctly Packard, powered by a new Packard Thunderbolt engine, the 300 rates 150-horsepower at 7.0-to-1 compression ratio, with improved ultramatic drive, Packard's famed automatic transmission, the compression is stepped up to 7.8-to-1, ultramatic is optional at moderate extra cost on this model.
