Packard 1004 Super Eight 7-Passenger Sedan, 1933
Chassis No.: 654163 $110,000 | High bid • Odometer: 65 miles • Engine: V-8 • Transmission: Manual • Exterior: Thistle Green • Interior: Tan • Body: 7-Passenger Sedan • Meticulous $250,000 restoration • 2013 AACA Senior First Place winner • CCCA Full Classic • 142-inch wheelbase • 7-passenger sedan • 1 of 788 long wheelbase Super Eight examples produced • 385/145 HP side valve Inline 8-cylinder engine • Single Stromberg carburetor • 3-speed manual transmission While the Great Depression negatively impacted America’s fine-car manufacturers, Packard’s reputation for excellence helped it maintain its strong market share. Introduced during January 1933, the Tenth Series models rank among the ultimate Classic Era Packards. Among their many attributes, the Tenth Series featured beautifully sweeping skirted fenders and a graceful V-shaped radiator shell borrowed from the 1932 Twin Six. Inside, the dash was a jewel-like work of art surrounded by rich wooden trim. Underneath, numerous mechanical upgrades made these beautiful automobiles enjoyable to drive and easier to operate than ever before, with new X-braced frames and three-point engine mountings, driver-adjustable and power-assisted brakes, and engine updates including automatic chokes and dual-coil ignition. As Packard’s upscale 8-cylinder line, the Tenth Series Super Eight was offered along two revised wheelbase lengths, comprising the 135-inch wheelbase Model 1003 in five-passenger sedan form only and 142-inch Model 1004 offered in a wide array of 13 open and closed body styles. Just 788 Model 1004 cars were built in all, including this dashing seven-passenger sedan from the noted Don Williams Estate Collection. Handsomely finished in Thistle Green with a tan interior, this meticulous $250,000 restoration is powered by Packard’s 385/145 HP side-valve inline 8-cylinder engine with a single Stromberg carburetor, with that engine paired with a 3-speed manual transmission. Other highlights include detailed chrome, twin Trippe Speedlights, front and rear leaf-spring suspension, 4-wheel servo-assisted drum brakes and side-mounted spare tires. A 2013 AACA Senior First Place award winner, this wonderful CCCA Full Classic is ready to enjoy and appreciate. https://www.mecum.com/lots/1095239/1933-packard-1004-super-eight-7-passenger-sedan/

By 1933, the Great Depression had tightened its grip on the world economy, but Packard President and General Manager James Alvan Macauley carried on calmly, confident that a carefully revised line of Packards would boost flagging sales figures that still exceeded those of Packard’s competition combined. The new Eleventh Series was unveiled in August 1933 at the Detroit Masonic Temple, which welcomed almost a thousand Packard dealers, distributors and salesmen, all of whom seemed delighted to find the new cars varied little from the comparatively successful Tenth Series models, which introduced skirted fenders, a new V-shaped front grille, upgraded interior trim and a new instrument cluster. The most dramatically styled lineup in Packard’s history, the 1934 models departed slightly in appearance with new, longer front fenders that extended down to almost meet the front bumper, which was now a one-piece affair tapered to both ends with a horizontal slot to suggest a two-bar bumper. Other exterior revisions included new running boards, a combination left tail light and gas filler cap, hood door handles instead of knobs and an integrated trunk. Beneath the Dietrich-designed factory coachwork of this gorgeous 1934 convertible Victoria, the 142-inch wheelbase chassis carries the quiet-running 385/145 HP inline-8 in front of a 3-speed synchromesh transmission, semi-elliptical leaf spring Ride Control suspension famous for its silky suppleness, and a semi-floating rear axle. Its superb blue paint and beige folding top are tastefully complemented with Trippe Speedlights, dual side-mount spares with case-mounted accessory mirrors, dual horns and the famed Goddess of Speed mascot. The richly appointed interior offers blue leather upholstery, rich wood-grain dash and door sills, Waltham instruments and dual gloveboxes. A contrasting Green undercarriage (a no-cost option) and wide whitewall tires on sparkling chromed wire wheels complete the car’s sensationally stylish presentation. https://www.mecum.com/lots/381041/1934-packard-1104-super-eight-convertible-victoria/
