The design of this Fifteenth Series Super Eight Limousine reflects the streamlining and modernization of design that first appeared on the 1935 Packard line. An attractively raked and vee’d grille garners immediate attention, as do the bullet-shaped head and taillights, plus skirted fenders.

This is presented as a “number three” car with only 63,891 actual miles and a perfect candidate for restoration. It is finished in stately black and a beige cloth interior that also features wood trim, passenger window shades, luxuriously designed seating, plus a handsomely designed dash and steering wheel.

The Packard 320-cid, 135-hp straight eight-cylinder engine is coupled to a three-speed floor-shift manual transmission. This example has the optional side-mounted spares that also have painted steel covers with attached mirrors and back displays a folding trunk rack. The radiator is adorned with the proper Packard hood ornament for this model and driving lights are also affixed to the car. The wheels are steel discs and display Packard hubcaps and are mounted with wide whitewall tires. The Classic Car Club of America recognizes this model of Packard as a Full Classic and is eligible for their club events.
