1914 Packard Series 3-48 news, pictures, and information

Tourer
 
The Packard 3-48 was the ultimate iteration of the six-cylinder Packard. With seven-passenger coachwork built on the long 139 inch wheelbase and with its 525 cubic-inch engine, this car was a very powerful and luxurious motorcar. It sold for $4850 when new and has become one of the most highly prized Antique era cars. This example was once part of the famous Otis Chandler Collection.
The Packard Series 3-48 Six was powered by a T-head six-cylinder engine that displaced 525 cubic-inches and produced just over 80 horsepower. It had a sliding gear transmission with mechanical brakes on two rear wheels. They had a 139 inch wheelbase for all of the fourteen available bodystyles except for the runabout, which rested on a 121.5 inch frame. Another astonishing feature was the 42 exterior color combinations that were available.
