Vehicle Description
Gateway Classic Cars of Tampa is proud to offer this survivor 1951
Packard 300. This patina'd Packard 300 sedan is a solid runner and
ready for some restoration love or custom modification. The big
inline eight runs well and the car drive pretty good. It can easily
be driven daily as well. The 300 series Packard represented the
upper mid-range Packard model and provided better appointments than
the Packard 200 or the Packard 250 models. Power for the car comes
from Packard's venerable Super Eight engine, the 327-cubic-inch
"Thunderbolt" inline eight. this 300 Packard is equipped with
Ultramatic automatic transmission. The drivetrain is reported to
have over 100k miles and still runs strong. Recent repairs include
a new master cylinder, rebuilt starter, and electric fuel pump. the
body has minor surface rust but no obvious signs of rot. The blue
paint still has a nice patina, and the factory hubcaps look classy
wrapped in fat white walls. The chrome is faded but all of the trim
is there and can easily be restored. This 51 Packard 300 sedan is a
neat "tinker while you drive" survivor, or candidate for easy
restoration. Only 15k were made in 1951. These aren't often seen.
