Seems V-8's were once thought to be too complicated for some .......

Data books were used to educate/inform those working at the dealerships I'm told.

And last evening while doing some reading and enjoying an adult beverage, I "rediscovered" pages 29 through 32 in my 1953 Packard data book.

After a quick chuckle and now some thoughts, I wonder how many Packard salesman back in the day really believed what Packard was putting forth in these publications?

On this particular book's rear cover the following statement is made, " This Data Book of Packard Facts was compiled in September, 1952 ..." .

Does anyone happen to know when Packard actually begin their development of what we know now as the Packard V8?
