Vehicle Description
1958 Packard Series 58L 4 Door Sedan - In the front a unique
looking low, wide 'fish mouth' grille was used. Factory Air
Conditioning with under the dash vents and controls. Engine 289
cubic inch small block making 225 horsepower, 4 barrel carburetor,
A top mounted modern style oil filter is definitely unique,
Generator, Power steering and Power Front Brakes. The Brown
interior is pristine and looks amazing. 2 tone Brown with a Tan
stripe bench seat. Beautiful dash pad has no rips or tears or sun
bleaching. Two texture and two color door panels look great. A
slightly rust/brown color carpeting creates a nice contrasting
look. A stainless steel gauge cluster plate encases actual gauges,
not warning lights, a large speedometer and original AM radio.
Paint is P-5818 Canyon Copper Polyurethane. Another notable change
was an attractive hardtop roofline similar to the Chrysler/Desoto
designs. Switching to a one-piece drive shaft the engineers were
able to flatten the floor, which also allowed them to flatten the
roof. An elegant White stripe outlined with trim runs down the side
of the car from fender tip to the lower rear fin along with a
matching White section on the roof. The change to 14' wheels from
larger wheels made the 1958 Packard noticeably lower. Steel hubcaps
feature a red hexagon in the center and a black painted ring. Wide
white wall poly tires.
