to come by in the 30's and the car market was getting tougher to
stay afloat in. Packard was the standard for a while and built cars
that exceeded expectations while surpassing the competition. The
Packard Twelve Limousine was a sign of wealth in a time where there
wasn't much wealth to be had. The 1708 version of the Packard
Twelve marked the end of such enormous luxury cars. The engine was
nearly perfected by 1939 and it still runs great today.For more
