1946 movie The Big Sleep with Bogie and Bacall. Two scenes with a 1936 senior sedan. First one speeding away from a murder scene. Next being fished out of the water after driver "drove it" off the pier.

Another is Out of the Past with Robert Mitchum. There's a 41-42 Clipper that the bad guys are driving.

Last one tonight: TV mini series The Last Convertible. I think on ABC around 1980/81. College kids driving around in a 1938 senior four door convertible on the eve of WWII. Can't remember if it was a Twelve or Super 8.

Thanks Dave. You're right, I did a quick skim and missed that point.

I see from HH56 psot that these were used on the 16th series juniors (1600 and 1601). Were they also used on the 15th series 120C ?

Roman,

Yes I go to the Oakbrook father's day show. I try to drive my car there but I haven't entered it in the show.

BTW: You don't have to own a Packard to be a member of POC. All you have to have is a love for the vehicle. I invite you to attend some of the meetings and events. Meetings are usually in Des Plaines. Ask your buddy with the Patrician also.

We have the same taste. I have been lusting for a Twelve forever. I'd like a 1937 club sedan or formal sedan. If you see one at a reasonable price let me know

Beautiful cars Williej. I am sure they are a joy to drive. What's the history on the Custom Eight or did I miss it?

Hey Roman,

Are you a member of Packards of Chicagoland (POC)? It's a great group of people who share a passion for these great cars. We are actively looking for younger members. Let me know if you're interested and I'll shoot you a PM with more details.

Lots of events and tours coming up this summer. Love to have you join us.

30's - 1108 Dietrich Coupe Roadster (1934)
40's - 1940 Darrin Victoria
50's - 1956 Caribbean Convertible

Hmmm...all convertibles.
