1925 Packard Model 236 Sport Phaeton

    1925 Packard Model 236 Navigation
    Packard's Sport model for 1925 was 2.5 inches shorter and 4 inches narrower in the body than the standard Phaeton, and spare tires were mounted on the rear giving it a sleeker look. The carburetor and suspension were upgraded as were the high-speed differential gears. Powered by an 85-horsepower straight eight, this car will cruise easily at 65 mph.

    This 1925 Packard 236 Eight Sport Phaeton is an original and unrestored car with a body designed by LeBaron and built by Pullman. The sport phaeton body style was 2½ inches lower than the standard phaetons and the hoods and radiators were also 2½ lower, resulting in a much sportier look. Power was supplied by Packard's in-line eight, which offered 85 horsepower. In addition, the car's suspension and carburetor were updated and a high-speed differential was installed at the factory.

    The car's original owner was the Dutch ambassador to the United States. The Dutch ambassador to the U.S. originally purchased this car at the Packard dealership on Times Square. The second owner was Lorenzo Winslow, architect-in-chief of the U.S. White House (1933-1953). Mr. Winslow designed and oversaw major renovations that included the Truman Balcony. There is still yellow sandy clay stuck in the frame of the car from being driven on the White House grounds.

    This car retains its original paint, upholstery, tools, and much of its nickel plating and is driven regularly. The current owner bought the car in 2010 and has driven it nearly 6,000 miles including one CCCA Caravan.
