Vehicle Description
Sold on Bill of Sale***
Introducing the 1954 Packard-Henney Hearse, a remarkable blend of
classic design, craftsmanship, and historical importance. This
hearse stands as a testament to the unique collaboration between
Packard and Henney, two legends that together redefined
professional vehicles in mid-century America. Henney, established
in the late 1800s, earned its reputation for quality craftsmanship
in professional cars, from ambulances to hearses. By the 1930s,
Henney partnered with Packard, a name synonymous with refinement
and reliability, which provided the perfect foundation for Henney's
custom work.
This hearse is powered by Packard's final straight-eight engine, a
359 cubic inch Inline 8 that delivers smooth and dependable
performance. Paired with a three-speed manual transmission, this
setup provided a dignified and reliable ride befitting the
vehicle's purpose. Inside, the green velour upholstery exudes an
old-world charm, with classic details that underscore its elegance
and reverence.
The Packard Henney Hearse is more than a vehicle; it is a piece of
American history, preserving the legacy of two icons who elevated
the standards of professional coachbuilding. Its rare presence,
historical significance, and timeless design make it a valuable
addition to any collection, ready to tell its story for generations
to come.
