1936 Packard Model 1407 Twelve Sport Phaeton

Among the more streamlined 1936 Packards, the Fourteenth Series Dual Cowl Sport Phaeton adhered to Packard's classic-era lines. The 5-passenger touring car still featured a second cowl and windshield for the rear compartment when many wealthy clientele were ordering more modern convertibles with roll-up windows. Perhaps due to this rather old-fashioned style, it is thought that just five examples were made in 1936 - and this car is believed to be the final one produced on the 1407 Twelve chassis. After several owners, the car was acquired in 1994 by Ronald Benach and fully restored by marque expert Fran Roxas before being shown at the 1996 Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance.
