1933 Packard 1005 Twelve Coupe

  • Chassis Number: 638-14
  • Engine Number: 901263
The Packard Twelve was produced from 1933 to 1939 with over 35,000 cars built. Just five of the 1933 1005 Twelve Coupes were made, and now only two are known to exist. The V12-engined cars featured sporting lines, a golf door, and a rumble seat, which it shared with the Convertible Coupe. This is the fourth Coupe built and it has a history that dates back to October 27, 1933, when it was sold new to Earle C. Anthony's Packard distributor in Los Angeles.
Packard built 520 examples of their top-of-the-line Twelve in 1933 in a generous range of catalogue and custom body styles. Just five examples of the 2-4 Passenger Coupe were built. They featured sporting lines, a golf door, and a rumble seat which it shared with the Convertible Coupe.

This Model 1005 Coupe Tenth Series Twelve has a history that dates back to October 27th of 1933, when it was sold new to Earle C. Anthony's Packard distributor in Los Angeles.

This is Packard Vehicle Number 638-14, making it the fourth coupe built on the 142-inch wheelbase platform, with each 1933 coachwork sequence beginning with body number 11.

In 1961, the car was discovered by Long Beach-area collector Dr. Harley Deere in Woodland, California. In the 1970s, Dr. Deere began to restore the Packard Coupe, but the project was ultimately put aside and the work never completed.

In September of 1986, Larry Justice, of Seattle, became the car's next owner. Beginning in 1987, Mr. Justice performed a comprehensive cosmetic and mechanical restoration, refinishing the coachwork in its current two-tone blue color scheme. The inside was upholstered in gray wool broadcloth. There are enclosed metal spares, Trippe driving lights, wide whitewall tires, and the 'Goddess of Speed' radiator mascot.

The restoration work was completed in the summer of 1987. It made its debut at the CCCA Pacific Northwest Grand Classic and received a perfect 100-point score as well as first place in the Primary Division. At the 1991 CCCA National meet, the Packard captured first place in the Senior Division, earning badge number 1302S.

Currently, just two of the five original 1933 Model 1005 Twelve Coupes are known to exist.
