1934 Packard 1106 Twelve Navigation
This is Packard Serial Number 902-380, better known as an 1106 Sport Coupe. Approved for construction in December of 1933, the Sport Coupe project, led by Packard's Head Stylist Edward Macauley, resulted in the creation of some of the most dramatic and dynamic Packards of the 1930s.
The coachwork, designed by LeBaron, was crafted in the Packard Custom Body Shop and showcases several unusual features. Noteworthy is the patented Packard radiator shell, the use of Sakhnoffsky's 'false hood' (extended hood sides almost to the windshield), a teardrop rear body shape, skirted rear wheels, pontoon-style front fenders, and covered wire wheels. The illusion of speed continues in the use of angled louvers and V-shaped components such as the windshield, grill work, and headlamps. All of this metallic magic is draped over a short wheelbase twelve-cylinder Packard chassis powered by a 160-horsepower engine.
Packard produced five similar, but not identical coupes, at an estimated cost of $18,000 each. Three have survived. Their purpose was to enthuse and excite the motoring public, and thankfully, they continue to do so today.
