Did not have time to watch the whole video yet, but you will notice in the first few minutes the Packard bus, and a cadillac and lincoln. Notice how the services and food compare to todays bag of pretzels.

Todd (tolandis), I expected to see in this promotional documentary a Packard Pan American, Henney's masterpiece.
![]() Thanks nevertheless for this great 1940 Pan Am promo video, filmed in a time, when Europe lay in ashes, while the video provided the lovely impression of a world, that promised to be the heaven on earth, describing Midway Island as a bird sanctuary on a coral atoll, offering every convienience. image source Detroit Public Library, National Automotive History Collection; 1953 Packard Pan American convertible, three-quarter front right view, dual white sidewall tires, wire wheels, parked in driveway, couple in background

Just saw one of these 8-door airporters a couple evenings ago in a YouTube video. Now I can’t find it again but it was a documentary about PanAm.
