This Packard Eight 236 Phaeton is powered by a 358 cubic-inch L-head eight-cylinder engine fitted with a single Packard Updraft carburetor. It has a three-speed manual gearbox and four-wheel mechanical drum brakes. It was sold new in Massachusetts and was discovered there decades later by New Hampshire-based collector Robert Valpey. At the time it was in unrestored condition with its original upholstery and body tag intact.
Avery Hall acquired the Phaeton in 1983, and a painstaking restoration soon followed. The work was completed in the mid-1990s and given a period-correct color scheme of Plymouth and Pilgrim Gray, with Flamingo Carmine striping, black fenders, and a tan top. Since the work was completed, the Packard has earned awards in CCCA competition and an AACA First Prize at Hershey, Pennsylvania. In 1995, it was selected as Best of Show at the Stowe Antique and Classic Car Meet.By Daniel Vaughan | Nov 2019
