[Scott 02]

LMAO, wanna be rolls royce. they were just your standard family car with a touch of the true american style.

[Scott 02]

Not the best looking picture out there, but this can get you an idea of what they looked like.

1940 Packard Touring Edition & Packard 120

[Scott 02]

This is the touring edition from 1940

Packard’s first vehicle was a luxury car built like 100 years ago. The company was forced to close 40 years ago (due to chevy) In 94 (Roy and Barbara Gulickson Gullickson Gullioucson ????? its one of those?) bought the rights to Packard. The company is based in Arizona and is aimed at the luxury low-volume market. The first Packard automobile was built in 1899 in Warren Ohio. The automobile was very popular and brought about the formation of the (Ohio Automobile Company) which evolved into the (Packard Motor Car) Company in 1902. Production of the Packard automobiles ran until around 1958. until 94 when the rights were bought and low production resumed. The new 12's look kinda like a rolls and a jaguar......to tell you the truth they look confused.

Be careful what you ask for. I just bought/read a history of Packard... I might start typing the whole thing here.:bandit:

Lots of innovations from that company. Maybe R-R's are British wannabe Packards!

[Scott 02]

Go for it. Waiting to hear since i don't know a whole lot about them. I found alot of info. I would probably get a PM from a moderator if i list all of it.
