My father had a 1941 model Packard one ten (six cylinders)which had a factory fitted air conditioner .The car had inscriptions as 'AIR CONDITIONED' by the side of the bonnet .I heard this was the first air conditioned model in the world .It did not have a power steering , yet the steering was very smooth and I as a 10 year old boy could drive this car very easily
