No guesses, just facts. They're both 1932 models. The top car is a Super Eight (Deluxe Eight) phaeton, and the bottom car is a Twelve convertible coupe. Love those wheel covers!!

West: I could be mistaken about the Clark Gable Packard.
The Packard is a 1932 905 series with 579 body style which means it is a Coupe Roadster or sometimes referred to as a Rumble Seat Roadster. I can give you two different reference sources if you would like. John F. Shireman

A tiger's tail by any other name is still a tail. I was just calling it by its generic term, which is a convertible coupe.

No guessing just facts? Now now West, it might be a Tigers Tail, but that Tail is connected to a 1932 905 series with 579 body Rumble Seat Roadster. Ha Ha! The Wheel Covers are...snazzy?

Technically it's not a roadster. It's a convertible coupe.

Buck Jones & '33 Packard Special Well, beauty is in the eye of the beholder for lack of a better saying, but for my 2 bits that one is so special, it doesn't even resemble a Packard and is ugly. EDIT: Thanks to Gerd for ferreting out the truth. I think it's still ugly but being a Cadillac, at least it has reason.
