1942 Packard Super-8 One-Sixty Navigation
By 1940, Packard's model line had come to include the 110, 120, 160, and 180. The Packard Twelve had been discontinued, as demand had fallen off considerably. It was replaced, however, with a 160-horsepower engine that proved to be very capable of filling the Twelve's big shoes. The new eight-cylinder engine was introduced as standard equipment on the 160 and 180 models which rode a longer wheelbase and benefited from elegant, sometimes custom, coach-built designs.
By 1942, the senior cars' eight-cylinder engine now produced 165 horsepower and the 160 adopted Clipper styling for its 127-inch wheelbase cars in both the club sedan and touring sedan body styles. In fact, the convertible coupe remained the only traditionally-styled Packard for that chassis and, given the cessation of production brought about by America's involvement in World War II, it remains a very desirable collector car.
