In the 1930s, Alexander M. Lindsay Jr. purchased his wife, Anne, a Packard seventh Series All-Weather Town car, a factory-cataloged 'semi-custom' by LeBaron. The car remained with the Lindsays in Rochester, seeing little use, for over two decades, during which time it was maintained and driven by their chauffeur.
Late in the 1950s, Lacey Jenkins acquired the car from the Lindsay family. The car remained with Mr. Jenkins until his passing in 1981, after which it was sold to Joseph Mollo. At the time, the car had just 32,518 miles on the odometer.
Since that time, the car has been owned by Otis Chandler and Lyall Trenholm. Mr. and Mrs. Kughn was only the eighth owners of what is believed to be the only Seventh Series Packard in this body style known to survive.
The car still wears much of its original Dark Olive Green finish, padded roof, and rear upholstery, with only the fenders having been refinished. There are doors with rounded corners, vault-like locks on the curbside doors, and numerous Packard accessories, such as chrome wire wheels, side-mounted mirrors, a radiator stone guard, an Adonis mascot, a monogrammed light bar, and senior Trippe driving lights. The original trunk is still present and contains four suitcases.
The LeBaron All-Weather Town Car rests on a 145.5-inch wheelbase, has body style 1907, and is powered by a 385 cubic-inch L-head eight-cylinder engine offering 106 horsepower.By Daniel Vaughan | Oct 2014
