Studebaker purchased the Packard Company in 1956 and for 1957, the Packards were based on the Studebaker Presidents, with taillights, trim, and interior appointments dressed to Packard specifications. By mid-1958, Packard marque was no longer available from the Studebaker line, bringing an end to one of the most revered American luxury brands of the golden age of motoring.
This Packard was given a rotisserie restoration in 2002 and finished in a factory color combination of lilac and Arctic White, with a matching interior. After the restoration was complete, the car became part of the famous '57 Heaven Museum collection in Branson, Missouri, before it was acquired by the present owner in 2009.
The car is powered by a 289 cubic-inch V8 engine breathing through a single two-barrel carburetor. The 275 horsepower produced by the powerplant was sent to the rear wheels via a Flite-O-Matic Automatic transmission. There are four-wheel hydraulic drum brakes and an independent-coil spring front suspension with a semi-elliptic leaf-spring setup in the rear.
In 2010, this car was offered for sale at the Gooding & Company auction in Pebble Beach where it was estimated to sell for $60,000 - $80,000 and offered without reserve. As bidding came to a close, the car had been sold for the sum of $57,750 including the buyer's premium.By Daniel Vaughan | Oct 2011
