1942 Packard Super-8 One-Eighty Navigation
The Darrin-bodied Packards of the early 1940s were given the new, up-to-date Clipper-inspired styling with the signature extended hoodline, cut-down doors, and a low vee'd windshield. These were essentially hand-built cars for individual custom orders. Just 35 examples were produced in 1941, followed by 15 the following year.
This particular example is the fourth of the 15 examples built in 1942. It was originally delivered by the Hollywood, California dealer. Its original owner was a San Francisco industrialist. In 1959, the car was acquired by Peter Jacovina from the owner's estate in Colmar, and after a restoration, kept it until 1995. It was then sold to Don Sears. Mr. Sears eventually passed the car to Joe Hayes of Chicago, after which it was acquired by its current owner. It has now remained in his collection for 14 years.
This car is finished in Parisienne Blue and has its CCCA Senior Premier badge. It was awarded 246½ of a potential 250 points at a Packards International meeting, winning a First Prize. It was also judged Best in Class among a special Packard Darrin class at the Palos Verdes Concours d'Elegance in 2015.By Daniel Vaughan | Apr 2018
