The Packard Motor Car Company introduced its Eighth Series cars on 14 August 1930. Manifolds and valves from the 1930s Speedster engine had been adopted across the board, resulting in a horsepower boost to 120 on the 384.8 deluxe models.

This beautiful Packard, formerly of the John O’Quinn collection, is equipped with the 120-bhp 384.8-cu. in. L-head eight-cylinder engine, four-speed manual transmission, solid front and live rear axle with semi-elliptical leaf springs, and four-wheel mechanical drum brakes. The wheelbase is 140.5 in.

This 1931 Packard is an older ground-up restoration that has been carefully maintained. The contrasting deep red/maroon two-tone paint with black top delivers stunning contrast that is sure to impress on any show field. Features include fender-mounted spare with full cover, a trunk rack, and Trippe Speedlights. The engine is quiet and smooth for comfortable driving. This rare and beautiful automobile simply exudes quality and excellence.
