1934 Packard Twelve 1104 Convertible Victoria
The Grand Statement of American Classic Luxury
This is a fully restored 1934 Packard 1104 Convertible Victoria — an automobile that represents the apex of Packard’s prewar artistry. From its commanding Super 8 powerplant to the elegant dual-cowl design and faultless proportion, the 1104 is a statement of both engineering prowess and aesthetic grace.
This example has been the subject of a meticulous, frame-off restoration performed to a high concours standard, returning the car to its original splendor. Every detail — from the correct Packard Navy and Black finish to the exquisite chrome brightwork, proper instruments, and luxurious leather and perfect burl faux wood interior — reflects deep respect for authenticity and craftsmanship.
Under the hood resides Packard’s legendary 384 cubic-inch inline 8 cylinder engine, producing 145 horsepower through a 3-speed manual gearbox. The rebuilt engine runs with the characteristic smoothness and torque that made the inline 8 famous for its effortless motion and near-silent delivery of power. Mechanical systems have been thoroughly rebuilt, including the suspension, braking, and electrical components, ensuring both reliability and authenticity.
Elegant accessories complete the presentation: dual side-mounted spares with mirrors, wide whitewall tires, immaculate folding luggage rack and correct Trippe driving lamps. The convertible top folds with precision, revealing a finely detailed cockpit that embodies Packard’s proud slogan — “Ask the man who owns one.”
A recognized Full Classic® with the Classic Car Club of America, this 1104 Convertible Coupe is eligible for concours, touring, and preservation events worldwide. It stands as one of the most desirable Packard body styles of the era — a car that defines American luxury before the war, restored to a level that honors its stature among the greats.
