1936 Packard

Manufacturer:Packard Motor Car Company ? Detroit , MI
Model: 120 Series Convertible Sedan
Base Price: Unknown
Engine: Eight-cylinder, 120 hp

James Ward Packard was convinced that he could build a better vehicle than the horseless carriage he purchased in 1898. An electrical equipment manufacturer from Warren, Ohio, Packard went on to build some of the most powerful and prestigious automobiles of the period. This four-door Convertible Sedan was a new body style for 1936; it was custom built for the buyer by Dietrich. The long wheel base chassis with its eight cylinder engine made it a comfortable, competent road car. Its elegant styling and proportions make it an American classic.
