1955 Packard Caribbean Navigation
The Detroit-built Packard was completely restyled for 1955, and prestige was still found in the glamorous and exclusive Caribbean models. As it went head-to-head with Cadillac one last time, the boldly designed Packard offered a wraparound windshield, larger tail lamps, lavish interior appointments, and an aircraft-inspired instrument panel.
First introduced in 1953, the Caribbean was produced from a body specially modified by Mitchell-Bentley Corporation of Ionia, Michigan, and received the new-for-1955 V8 engine and 'Torsion Level' suspension. A mere 500 were built for the 1955 model year.
This Caribbean is finished in a white, magenta, and black tri-tone combination. It has been in the hands of the current owner for approximately ten years and was fully restored by the previous owner.
