1940 Packard Super-8 One-Sixty Convertible Coupe

Chassis Number: 13792287

The Packard 160 line supplanted the Packard 120 line, which had helped Packard survive the jaws of the Great Depression.

This 1940 Packard 160 Super 8 Convertible Coupe has been given a body-on restoration. It has a column-shifted 3-speed manual transmission mated to a rebuilt engine. It is finished in a hue of light yellow with a matching interior appointed with red trim and newer leather upholstery. It has bumper guards, a wood-grain dashboard and steering wheel, fender skirts, dual side-mounted spare tires in metal cases, whitewall tires and chrome hubcaps, and trim rings.
