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

That answers it. I didn't know the accessories would separate into so many pieces. Good luck on a quick "concert" though. Looks like you'd need the back seat of the Packard for the staging area.

Appears to be a 34 Twelve, 1107 (142" wb), body style 730 or 731. Tires look to be heftier than the 7.50 x 17 x 6 ply that was OE. And the plain bail cap was chosen over one of the optional radiator caps so it wouldn't appear so decadant?

Post #12. Double pack.jpg.
Notice the heavily tinted windows.

Another Twelve (with interesting side mirrors), displayed at the EXOTICA, a vintage car rally in Moscow. It was labeled with "1933 Packard, 160 instead of 180 horsepower".

Thanks for the picture. Actually it's a 1934. The front bumper is from a Twelve but it's unclear to me if the car is actually a Twelve or not as another identifying feature would be the head and fender lamps which appear to Eight lamps.

Dave, thank you. An Eigth or a Twelve - I'm afraid it could take a long time until the veil of history lifts. With view to our solitary photograph (click to enlarge) I'm able to complete a bit what was said. The number plate contains "Сф" = Sf like "Sofia". That seems to confirm that the car was registered in the capital of Bulgaria. And please take a look to its flagpole. Its presence could be a pointer to an official car or a former official car (tread wear).
