One more from Canada:

1949 (23rd Series) Super Deluxe Club Sedan. Body No. 2375. Posting this one because it is such a rare car. Long wheelbase Club Sedans are quite scarce, especially for the 23rd Series. Do not think I have ever seen one of these before. Car is partially disassembled but appears complete with solid, rust-free sheet metal. All chrome is intact and appears to be in relatively good condition. Has Ultramatic Drive. Definitely a very worthy project. Asking $2,950. Windsor, Ontario:

Packard Don: Thanks so much for the article on Henney. I have read other articles about the Henney built Packard professional cars, but this one contained info I was not previously aware of. Just goes to show that no matter how much you know about a subject, there is often still a lot you don't know.

Think that 1940 would be a great project for you to take on!

PackardDon. I was going by the hood louvers which look like the ones on a Super Eight. But I know that you are an expert on the Packard professional cars, so I would defer to you.

Very nice work! This is a tough section to fabricate and is very often rusted out on Packards of this vintage. Had a '51 200 once that was even worse than yours.

Saw this ad today on FB. Very straight front clip off of a '35 120 with dual mounts. Hood, both fenders, grille, radiator shroud, both side mount covers, complete dash with instruments, radiator core, splash guards and other assorted hardware. Even has the very rare 1935 120 bullet style radiator ornament. Think this is a great deal for only $2,800. Indiana.

Went on this site today and spotted two Packards:

1933 Packard Super Eight Limo. Not sure of exact model. It appears to be a custom body with blind rear quarters and has the "V" shaped headlamp lenses. Car appears to have been modified with a modern drive train. Dash is not original. Interior redone, appears to be all leather. Driver's door is missing in photos and car obviously needs work. Not sure what to make of this one. Think a limo company may have modified this for commercial use, and it was then damaged in an accident. Report on website indicates side damage to vehicle. Car is currently in a lot in Long Island, NY.

1956 Patrician. Heavy damage to roof panel, hood, driver's side rear quarter panel and deck lid. Rear windshield completely blown out. Appears to have been partially crushed in a structure collapse, possibly due to a tornado. A shame as this was a very nice original car prior to being damaged. Interior is exceptionally clean. Not sure if car is repairable or should just be parted out. Would take a significant effort and a good parts car to restore everything. Paint code MG (Dover White over Aegean Blue Metallic). Car located in Pittsburg, PA:

I personally know this car. The current owner is from Connecticut. It was formerly owned by the late Ole Book. Have seen the car on several occasions. It is an older restoration but still quite nice.

Few new postings:

1942 Clipper Eight Sedan. Unrestored and quite rusty, floors and trunk pan are shot but the rest of the body looks pretty decent. The car is complete and being a '42, it is certainly a rare one. Probably better as a parts car. Car came from a recent estate sale. Seller asking $1,600 which may be reasonable. Iowa:

1950 Eight Sedan. Think it is a Standard Eight. Abandoned restoration project; car is partially disassembled. Body looks pretty decent. Asking $3K. Iowa:

1955 Patrician. Ad states engine runs. Needs cosmetic restoration. Car looks relatively solid and complete though interior is somewhat rough and it really needs paint. Asking $5,500. Alabama:

Hi rhide. I took a look at the photos and agree that it is a lovely car. It appears that someone spent quite a bit of money on it to make it this nice.

Regarding model number, this car is a 1938 Eight Touring Sedan, Chassis No. 1601 and Body No. 1192. It has a 282 CI straight eight rated at 120hp and a 127-inch wheelbase. This is a one of the smaller Junior Series Packards. The Junior eight-cylinder car was labeled as the Packard Eight for 1938 only. For 1939, the model's name was changed back to the 120 which had been used for the 1935 through 1937 models. 1938 was the first year for the all-steel body in the Junior Packards.

I have owned two 1938 Packards in the past and properly identifying them can be an issue because for this model year only, Packard, for some reason, decided to use a decal instead of the usual metal data plate which bore the vehicle's serial number, dealership where sold and date of delivery. The information would be stamped on the decal with an ink stamp. Unfortunately, this decal, being situated on the firewall, often quickly deteriorated or got stripped off or painted over during a subsequent restoration as appears to be the case with this particular car. This can create significant issues when registering one of these cars with your Department of Motor Vehicles. One of the '38's I owned was restored from a very low mileage original car and the restorer, being a Packard expert, carefully masked off the original decal before repainting the car. On my other '38, the decal was long gone, but it was a project car, and I ended up selling it without ever getting it registered for road use. Not sure how registration is being handled for this car, but I would definitely want to discuss with the dealer and possibly with the local motor vehicle authorities before proceeding.

The fact that the engine serial begins with a "B" indicates that this is not the original engine for the car as the serial number for a 1938 engine would begin with an "A". Not uncommon for these cars to have had engine replacements over the years and there is virtually no difference between a '38 and a '39 282 Eight engine. But the car is definitely a '38 as identified by the following features unique to 1938:

Dash is painted silver. Only year for this as other model years had wood grained dashboards.
Chrome moulding on the windshield center bar extends up into the roofline.
Exposed chrome trunk lid hinges.
Round jewels on the upper part of the rear taillight housings. These were eliminated for 1939.
Accessory Banjo Steering wheel is the correct one for 1938. The 1939 banjo wheel was different.
Car has floor shifter. This was available by special order in 1939, but I have never actually seen one so equipped. 1939 being the first year for the column shift, what Packard called "Handi shift". (not so handy in my opinion; my '39 Six has column shift and I really hate it).

This car also has the accessory side mount spare tires with the correct covers. This is a highly desirable option, though it can make routine servicing a bit more difficult. You might have to remove the spares to do some operations, and this can be a chore.

Hope this information is of help. If everything checks out and you do decide to buy this car, I think you will get a lot of enjoyment out of it. This is certainly a Packard you can be proud to own.
