There was a song about a love affair between a Packard and a Ford. It appeared about 1915.
................Later.................... The Love Story Of The Packard And The Ford, by Harold R. Atteridge and Harry Carroll, 1915. levysheetmusic.mse.jhu.edu/levy-cgi/disp ... gi?id=060.108.000;pages=4;range=0-3 Then there's Bring Back That Packard Car by Ducks Deluxe, 1973 amazon.com/Bring-Back-That-Packard-Car/dp/B003U29QI2 You could probably find some Packard advertising jingles on Youtube in old Packard ads.

Well... not a whole Packard... but the Ultramatic gets a mention in "Greased Lighting" the fairly raunchy number sung by John Travolta in Grease.

If you're going that route, wasn't there a forties tune called "Caribbean Clipper"?
Wasn't there a mid-late fifties musical starring James Cagney trying to placate his "lady" friend with trinkets to put off their engagment and one of the items in a song, was "a Packard car"?

These were performed on the Forker Memorial Wurlitzer Theatre Organ (one of the finest instruments in the world) in Sarasota, FL, just a few miles from the wonderful Packard display field provided by Tom Kaiser.
If you would like a copy of the resulting CD, please send check, cash, or money order to: The Florida Packard Club Attn: Tom Kaiser 2805 Golf Club Blvd. Sarasota, FL 34240 CD's are $20.00 each and all proceeds benefit the Florida Packard Club. "Your Packard Hit Parade, Edition II", will take place Saturday, November 10 at 2:30 pm, Grace Baptist Church,8000 Bee Ridge Road, Sarasota, FL 34241. No admission charge for the concert or for the fabulous Packard show the next day!

Amazing stuff!
Little bothered by that Ford/Packard thing. Would you describe that as on the wrong side of the garage???? Maybe a hymn will help.... Anything newer like the Beach boys 409 or others of that genre?
