Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

Rumble seat, luggage rack, dual sidemounts, Red wire wheels, wide whitewalls, spotlight, wind wings, single Pilot Ray, radiator stone guard. Sparton three trumpet air horn under hood. Engine oily, with coolant leak corrosion on cylinder head. A quality old restoration with age, use and good if not consistent care. Sound paint, chrome, interior, glass and top. Some thin chrome, particularly on windshield frame. Chassis and engine evidence age and mileage. Doors close smoothly and fit flush. Door and hood edges are nicked from use, but not excessively Top fits tightly and is only lightly soiled. Upholstery is good. With a little work this will be a great tour car. Not running.

Market commentary

This is one of the better values in the Paine Collection, a high quality Classic Packard in sound and reassuring condition even if its not running. It brought a strong but not unreasonable price from a European phone bidder.
