1923 Packard Single Six Sedan

This Packard Series 126 Single Six Five-Passenger Sedan was acquired by the Merrick Auto Museum from Ed Mark of Niles, Michigan, in 1996. It wears an older restoration that has been sympathetically conserved. It is finished in medium blue with black fenders and rides on wood-spoke artillery wheels in body color mounted with Firestone Non-Skid blackwall tires. There is a rear-mounted spare tire, and the engine is equipped with a 'Fuelizer,' which pre-heats with a fuel-air mixture before it enters the combustion chamber in order to provide more complete combustion. The 268 cubic-inch L-head engine offers 54 horsepower. The interior is upholstered in blue cloth. The instrumentation includes a Waltham drum speedometer with an integrated clock. There are 49,000 miles shown on the odometer.
