That's what I just said! I fear a few zeros are missing and then it's way too much.

I'm amazed that this 37 super eight touring sedan on 134" WB won't sell at this "junior" price.

Does seem odd as this is a very handsome original car and a full classic. Maybe price is low because the '37 "Super 8" is really a re-branded standard 8 (320 c.i.) and also because this is a touring sedan, which many consider the least desirable model. Not sure what an equivalent condition '37 120 touring sedan typically sells for.

Well this is not the 1500 on a 127" WB. I think it's quiet an unusual car cause the extra 7" WB was setting you back another $200 brand new. Maybe O_D van shed some light on estimated production numbers between the 1003 and 1013?
A nice 37 120 touring sedan can be bought in the $20-25k range. I've been contemplating this super 8 but how many Packards does one need?

Well BDC I've always been told that things are always bigger in Texas. So you mite as well go ahead and get that darn old Packard cuz you just might not have a big enough collection.

The common, big, wood framed body Senior sedans are expensive to restore thus depressing the value while the much more desirable open Seniors continue to rise.
The junior steel framed body sedans seem to be holding their own as are the junior open cars. Driving a Junior is real fun, light steering, tighter turning radius and the man on the street thinks you're in a million dollar car. Just my 2 cents

The 35-37 juniors have wood as well, and it makes no difference in restoring a junior or senior at that point from a wood standpoint.
