Market commentary

The subject of an older restoration that cost some $150,000, this Packard was quite the buy. Big and imposing in a just right 1920s sort of way, the Packard is the perfect car for parades, tours, or Sunday drives. Its colors are dated, but that does little to lessen its appeal and detracts not at all from its use on tours. It is a sound value at this price.
