It's hard to pinpoint exactly what to look at to determin Packard. I looked at it and immediately "knew," but it comes from "too many hours" looking at Packards and Packard pictures (rather than studying). Standard-bodied cars of this era are fairly easy to identify as to make. They each had their own "look" or "presence." Even Pierce-Arrows with "New York" headlights don't look like this car. The wheels/hubs are unique to Packard, which is one of the first indicators to varify someone's first assumption that it's a Packard.
