So much risk buying a Twelve without a serious evaluation before purchase. If the engine is in great shape it might be a tempting buy, but if not a full rebuild by one of the few who are capable of correctly doing a Twelve to the highest standards would probably cost as much as the asking price for the car.

How about a packard partition???

This 37 v12 looks a lot better for just a little more money.

BDC:

Everyone who knows about Packards remembers the world famous Partition. A very rare model, this car was produced only so long as it took for the guys in the factory to notice that its name was misspelled! A second Packard Partition almost sold at a Mecum auction last year for $645,000; unfortunately that bid did not meet the reserve.

Rarer than the Partition is the 1953 Packard Sargasso, which was supposed to be an upscale Caribbean; but like the Partition, the Sargasso didn't float!

Correct me if I'm wrong, but there is something rather odd about the Partition's grill ...

The Partition really marked a dividing point in postwar design.

Packard was hoping to carve out a niche market with the Partition, but sadly they left the door open to competition and thus was born the Cubicle

I'm pretty sure that Los Angeles ad is misspelled -- judging from the condition, it should actually be a Packard Perdition.

Well, it would look nice next to a packard mayflower
