In August of 1947, the Twenty-Second Series Packard models were introduced. This was the marque's first all-new post-war design. They were elegant, modern, aerodynamic, and streamlined. In 1948, the New York Fashion Academy chose Packard as its 'Fashion Car of the Year.'
The Station Sedan produced by Packard was an effort to improve its upscale image and align itself with other sought-after vehicles such as Chrysler's Town & Country Woody Wagon. The Packards had a decorative ash framework, innovative Di-Noc panels which gave the appearance of mahogany, high build quality, and a smooth ride. A new Station Sedan was priced at $3,425. Production would continue, mostly unchanged, through 1950. There were 3,864 examples produced making them very rare then and now.
In the early 2000s, this 1950 Packard Eight Station Sedan was given a body-off restoration. It is well-equipped with a clock, heater, AM radio, period-correct whitewall tires, steel wheels, chrome-plated hubcaps, red 'Packard' emblems, leather upholstery, and black carpeting.
In 2008, this car was brought to the 2nd Annual Vintage Motor Cars of Hershey presented by RM Auctions where it was estimated to sell for $70,000-$90,000. Though the vehicle carried a reserve, it was lifted even though bidding did not reach the estimated value. The lot was sold for $58,300 including buyer's premium.By Daniel Vaughan | Oct 2008
