This 1933 Packard Eight Series 1002 Phaeton is a well-preserved
example powered by the 320ci L-head straight-eight paired with a
3-speed synchromesh transmission. With the original Light Yellow
paint and original black leather interior, this Packard is a
beautiful representation that would be a great weekend driver,
tourer and welcome at local shows. Originally sold new in 1933, one
of only 1,099 Series 1002 chassis produced, this Packard has been
cared for by a small number of dedicated enthusiasts. The earliest
documented owner, Mr. Brown, retained the car for over 25 years
before selling it in 1999. David Critchlow Sr. acquired the Packard
in 2004, later selling it to Tom Crook, the esteemed Packard expert
and restorer. Mr. Crook completed an engine rebuild and sold the
car to the current owner in 2013, at which point it had just 4,618
miles since restoration. Over the past two years, it has been
driven approximately 8,000 miles, demonstrating its continued
reliability and usability. This Packard is a former CCCA National
First Prize winner and holds CCCA Full Classic status. This Packard
presents well and is in good overall condition. The Light-Yellow
paint is in good condition and mostly original with some selected
touchups over the years from normal use. The chrome trim accents
are in good overall condition with some wear showing in the
expected areas from high use. The Packard has dual horns, dual side
spotlights, wind wings, windscreen that can lie flat, driving
lamps, tan canvas-covered trunk and 17inch wire wheels. The tan
canvas top is in good condition with minor frayingin two corners.
This Packard is a beautiful, mostly original example that would be
welcomed at local shows and a great motorcar to use for touring.
The Packards original interior is in good condition with age
showing from regular use. The original black leather seating shows
an overall patina with a couple tears. The black leather door sides
are in great condition, and the brown carpet is in good overall
condition. The dash presents well with the instrument panel in
overall good condition. The interior is in considerably
well-maintained condition for a Packard that has been a reliable
driver over the years. This model 1002 is powered by its original
320ci L-head straight-eight with nine main bearings, paired with a
three-speed synchromesh manual transmission and single-plate
clutch. Fuel is delivered through a Stromberg dual downdraft
carburetor with automatic choke and a mechanical fuel pump. Power
is sent to a semi-floating rear axle, with the chassis employing
semi-elliptic leaf springs and worm-and-roller steering. Stopping
power comes from mechanical drum brakes assisted by a vacuum power
unit for all four wheels, with adjustments available for brake
sensitivity. The car is equipped with Packards Ride Control system,
offering driver-adjustable shock absorber settings. All factory
instrument gauges are functional; a tachometer has been added, and
the clock does not work. Maintenance highlights include regular
servicing every 500 to 750 miles,water pump replaced in 2013,
steering sector shaft and thermostat syphon assembly serviced in
2019 and tires replaced in 2023. The Packard was most recently
serviced in July 2025, comes with service records and a collection
of service manuals. For more information and details, please call
