If you are in the market for a unique, clean, and original classic
then look no further. Survivor Classic Car Services Tampa is proud
to offer this well documented 1953 Packard Patrician for sale. Best
of all the odometer is showing 57,554 actual miles documented by
the title and the ownership history is available from when the car
was sold new. We even have a copy of the Packard's original
title!
In 1950 Packard introduced the John Reinhart-designed 24th Series
Patrician 400 sedan as the top-of-the-line Custom Eight
replacement. The car was a departure for Packard, utilizing a
"three-box" shape that was much more contemporary and modern
looking. The 1952 Packard Patrician was virtually the same as the
previous year, with only small visual modifications transpiring.
This was also the case for 1953, as minor changes to the grille and
side trim were the biggest exterior changeups.
This Patrician is finished in beautiful black paint that is
accented by a clean original gray cloth interior. All of the chrome
and brightwork show very well and the car looks like it belongs in
a mid 50's grocery store parking lot.
The Patrician still used a nine-main-bearing, straight-eight
flathead engine, now displacing 327 CID instead of 356 CID. This
produced an impressive for its time,155 hp. All Patricians were
equipped with Packard's own Ultramatic automatic transmission. On
the outside, the Patrician was fitted with a cormorant hood
ornament, lots of chrome trim along the side, "teeth" in the
horizontal grille, and cloisonne hubcap centers. This example also
features Easamatic power drum brakes making it a great candidate
for a driver.
The Packard Patrician today carries the distinction of being one of
the last top-level Packard's built. The cars are fairly rare with
only 7,456 being built, and dareI say it, handsome as well. Please
call us soon before it is too late.
