The last Packard bought new for White House service was a 1951 Patrician 400 (2406) by Derham purchased in the Truman Administration but apparently retired shortly thereafter in favor of Lincolns who offered special incentives.

Source of this information is an article on White House Packards published by the Smithsonian which I'll add to this site under Misc. articles. Hope you enjoy.
