The 23rd Series model was introduced in May of 1949 and was essentially unchanged and marked Packard's Golden Anniversary. Powering these cars was an eight-cylinder engine that displaced 288 cubic inches and offered 135 horsepower.
The Standard Eight Sedan was priced from $2,250 and was the company's entry-level model. This example has traveled less than 1,000 miles since it emerged from 35-40 years of garage storage. The exterior was refinished in a darker shade of green than original, and features include a re-chromed grille and bumpers, and a set of period-style wide whitewall tires. The interior includes a new floor mat and a number of new control knobs.
In 2010, this car was offered for sale at the Vintage Motor Cars of Hershey presented by RM Auctions. It was estimated to sell for $10,000 - $14,000 and offered without reserve. As bidding came to a close, the car had been sold for the sum of $11,000, which includes the buyer's premium.By Daniel Vaughan | Oct 2010
