1948 Packard Eight Station Sedan

    While most people would refer to this automobile as a station wagon or woodie wagon, Packard referred to this body style as a four-door 'station sedan' when it was introduced in 1948. The model was offered only in Packard's Standard Eight series and was discontinued after the 1950 model year. It is considered to be one of the very first all-steel-bodied station wagons and features genuine Northern Birch wood paneling. Unlike other automakers, the wood in this Packard was strictly decorative and was only used structurally for the tailgate.

    As the 1950s dawned, automakers began to substitute real wood with fiberglass railing and Di-Noc wood grain decals.
