Packard Forum Index » Pre-War (1899-1942)

Gorgeous yet elegant, and in a rational, small package. No mean feat, among the reasons the new One Twenty well outsold LaSalle, Zephyr and all other price class competitors. Packard never made a better car, certainly not from a driver's standpoint. The 120 certainly did n o t harm Packard's imagine at all, if anything buoyed it. The '37 six was an understandable mistake, after years of Depression uncertainty with ex-GM production men increasingly running the show. The six should've been called a Packardette or Macauley, etc.

But the 120 was a gem, and no better showroom bait than yours.
