This 1942 Packard 160 Convertible is a beautifully and recently restored car. A full CCCA Classic, with powerful 356 cubic inch straight 8, and factory overdrive for high speed cruising! These top of the line Packard super 8’s represent a peak design for the marque – a car with enough power, and engineering refinement to be capable of driving in our modern highway traffic, yet still retaining the classic design features that we classic car enthusiasts love.
