'27 336 Runabout - High Performance before the Speedsters
#1

See User information
The First through Third Series Eights on 136" wheelbase included a two passenger Runabout; the lightest weight model other than the four passenger Sport touring. For the Third Series, the engine was enlarged from 357.8 ci/ 85hp to 384.8 ci/109hp. Before the 626 and 734 Speedsters, the 336 Runabout was in specification a high-performance model.

What brought this to attention is a thread posted on the PAC Forum:

Although I have no interest personally in its coming sale, this has to be one of the most desirable Classic Era Packards. Its a fine example of what the wealthy, rakish young blade drove with enthusiasm in that period.
