1907 Packard Model Thirty Gentlemans Roadster

  • Chassis Number: 5175
This 1907 Packard 30hp Gentleman's Roadster was on display at the 2008 'Quail Lodge, A Sale of Exceptional Motorcars and Automobilia' sale presented by Bonhams Auction. It was later offered for sale at the 'The Richard C. Paine Jr. Collection' auction in September of 2008 where it was estimated to sell for $300,000 - $400,000.

This Gentleman's Roadster was acquired from Dr. Samuel Scher in the mid-60s in a multi-car transaction. It was given a restoration by Gus Reuter to National First Prize winning condition for Dr. Scher. The Jones speedometer shows just 7,973 miles. There is a trumpet bulb horn, acetylene headlights, kerosene sidelights, luggage trunk, a single spare tire strapped to the right running board, and a bucket-style 'mother-in-law seat' on the rear deck atop the copper gas tank. The interior features two bucket seats for the driver and passenger, a hood, and a cowl. There is a top but no side curtains. It is painted in a combination of pale greenish-cream with dark green accents, borders, undercarriage, and inner fenders. The interior is green leather with a tan cloth top and spare tire cover piped in green.

At the auction, the car was left unsold.
