Vehicle Description
This 1951 Packard 300, four-door sedan, is a rare example of a
seldom seen make and model in very good original condition. It is
powered by Packard's smooth Thunderbolt Straight Eight, 327ci
engine producing 150HP horsepower; one of the largest engines made
by any manufacturer in 1951 mated to Packard's two-speed Ultramatic
transmission. Additional equipment and options include original
drum brakes in excellent working order, new bias-ply wide whitewall
tires installed in 2020 provide outstanding limousine-quality ride,
all original interior that is very presentable with excellent
original headliner and the radiator was re-cored in 2021. The
engine and transmission have both been rebuilt by previous owner
who was a lifelong Packard collector. A repaint was also done at
that time and is still very presentable. Currently owned by the
third owner; registered, roadworthy and driven regularly. Only
15,000 produced, only a few hundred of this year, make, and model
remain registered anywhere. The car runs, shifts, drives and stops
well. An original exterior sun visor, a rare optional accessory,
will be included with the sale.
