Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

Brown wire wheels with chrome lockrings and whitewall tires, dual sidemounts with metal covers, chrome rings and mirrors, trunk rack, footrest, smokers kit, folding rear center armrest, radiator stoneguard, windshield visor. Restored in the 60s for J.B. Nethercutt, then sold to Harrahs. The restoration has held up remarkably well and is still in excellent touring condition. Excellent interior wood trim and upholstery. Top is newer.

Market commentary

One of only nine built and six known to survive this Packards coachwork is both attractive and rare. With rollup windows and a tight fitting top it also is practical and useful. The estimate reflects the age of the restoration more than the quality of the car and it is not surprising that the seller stuck to his reserve.
