Hi bkazmer
chicago.craigslist.org/nwc/cto/5221589679.html Thanks to Mr. Neal, I can now better identify some of these obscure models, the black '50 in the photos listed as a Standard 8, the 2382 is the 'standard' trim level of the 23rd Series Super Eight. Tell tales are the longer front clip to accommodate the 127" wb, the three, thick upper grille bars and the chrome extension to the side of the taillight housing plus the two vertical bars cast into the taillight lens. There are interior differences too but can't recall those just now. A couple of '41 110's: Sedan, stored 30 years, no photos: newhaven.craigslist.org/cto/5185348018.html A coupe that is in dire need of an appreciative new owner: scranton.craigslist.org/cto/5205039726.html A '53 lwb parts car: peoria.craigslist.org/cto/5217674223.html Steve

1936 packard hearse, body & frame. Looking at the front fender it seems to be based on a 120

On the 36 hearse, I got the data plate which puzzles me a little.

Hi BDC:
Not sure what you found unusual about the VN, it's straight forward - a 1936 120 (120B) commercial chassis (A), the 65th(?) such chassis built. Could possibly be a left over 1935 cowl stamping, the theft-proof is right on the cusp between 1935 and 1936 120s, a bit of a blackhole in the known data.

I didn't know that "A" stood for commercial chassis. Learned something today. What's the wheelbase on a commercial chassis? Apparently there were quiet a few build.

Packard used that convention for a number of prewar years. For example a 1901 chassis would be a 1941 "120", the 1901A would be the corresponding commercial chassis.
