1940 Packard Super-8 One-Sixty Touring Sedan

Dubbed 'Blue Max', this Packard 160 Touring Sedan has won firsts in class at many concours events following its ground-up restoration. Its victories include the 2002 Silverado Concours, the 2002 and 2003 Hillsborough Concours, and the 2003, 2005, and 2007 Palo Alto Concours.

The 160 was Packard's top-line open car in 1940 and was equipped with a big straight-eight engine and a three-speed transmission with overdrive. One unique feature of the car is its thermostatically controlled grille shutters, which would regulate the cooling airflow through the radiator based on the engine's temperature.
