Packard model production numbers
Just popping in
Just popping in

I own a 1948 Packard Custom Club Sedan and I am trying to get a handle on just how many of this model were made and if possible how many may still be on the road. My sense is that they are scarcer than hen's teeth. I have never seen one at the car shows or cruises I go too. Can only account for 2 others in my home state (CT) I have owned the car for 2 yrs. I know 1948 was a big year for Packard but fastbacks in general are rarely seen and Customs almost never. Anybody got some numbers on this make and model?

Donating this literature is a very generous gesture. So often, it seems the golden eggs are blown out for pennies on the dollar and the remainder is thrown out. It sounds like Dan left thoughtful directive to ensure this literature collection would go to good use.

Kev, thanks for your effort in obtaining this literature, the future cataloging of all this, and support of this site so that thousands of Packard enthusiasts around the world can benefit from Dan's gracious final wishes.

Kev, if you haven't already thought of this, you might consider crediting Dan with whatever info you post that was specifically gleaned from his donation.


I will do that just like I do with everyone who donates content to the website!

I think if you were to have thrown a match down my old tank you would be disappointed!! i don't think anything in there would have burned, it might have thrown the match back at you as it cussed you out for waking it up

I may have missed it in the above posts. But, you might check the heat riser in the exhaust manifold. If it sticks in the closed position, overheating is a guarantee.

BIGKEV: We all should be very greatfull to the family of Dan Yocum for letting your have all the Packard lierature.
Sometimes what a person promises the family doesn't follow through on.

I never knew of Dan Yocum or his love and involvement concerning Packards. How did you get to know and could you post a picture of him.
