  • One of 5,793 Super Eights built for 1937
  • Documented restoration by Glenn Vaughan Restoration of Idaho
  • Classic Car Club of America (CCCA) Full Classic
  • Eligible for all CARavans and club events

Packard’s 15th Series was introduced on 3 September 1936. An incredible 50 models were available for 1937! Packard produced a record 109,518 cars, a number the company had never attained before, nor would ever achieve again. Ninety percent of its sales, however, were concentrated within its lower-priced Junior lines – the new Six and 120 models. Just 5,793 Super Eights were produced for 1937, which included independent front suspension and hydraulic brakes for the first time. Packards continued to be owned by notables like Bob Hope, Jack Benny, Jean Harlow, Al Jolson, Dick Powell, Irene Dunne, and President Franklin Roosevelt.

This Packard Super Eight is finished in Regatta Blue over a light grey fabric interior. Power is supplied by a smooth 135-hp 320-cu. in. inline eight-cylinder engine with a three-speed manual transmission. Restoration was reportedly completed in the early 2000s under the previous owner and done by Glenn Vaughn Restoration of Idaho. It has been in the possession of the consignor for the last 10 or so years, and he is believed to be just the third owner.

In addition to having been repainted during restoration, the interior was re-fitted with lovely grey upholstery and door panels replete with matching carpets and headliner. The engine and gearbox are said to have been rebuilt at the time of restoration. The odometer was set to zero at the time and currently shows just 700 miles confirmed by the clean underhood area and undercarriage. A factory radio is installed, as well, although currently inoperative. Photo documentation of the restoration is provided and receipts for any work done by the consignor are available for review.

As a CCCA Full Classic, it is eligible for all CARavans and club events.
