Masterpiece of Art Deco EngineeringExperience a rare piece of
automotive history with the 1932 Packard Series 900 Light Eight
Roadster. Introduced as the show stopper of the 1932 New York Auto
Show, this State of the Art Packard represented a bold, streamlined
leap forward for the prestige brand.Design &
PerformanceDistinguished by its iconic and aerodynamic shovelnose
scoop-type grill, the Light Eight was built on an entirely new
127.75 wheelbase chassis. By design, it was lighter and more agile
than its contemporaries, offering superior get-up and go compared
to the heavier Standard Eight.This specific model features the
highly desirable optional dual sidemounted spare tires, emphasizing
its classic, long-hood silhouette.Innovation Ahead of Its TimeIn
1932, Packard pushed the boundaries of luxury and safety. This
Roadster is equipped with features that were revolutionary for the
era: Mechanical Excellence: 3-speed syncromesh transmission, ride
control, rubber motor mounts, and finger-control free wheeling.
Safety & Comfort: Shatterproof glass, 6-ply tires, and a
five-position adjustable front seat. Cockpit Sophistication: A new
dash featuring aviation-type instruments, dual glove compartments,
and a remote control starter button. Driver Amenities: Twin
adjustable sun visors and two independently operating windshield
wipers.A Rare OpportunityDespite being Packards best-selling
vehicle in 1932, the Light Eight was so over-engineered that the
company famously lost $150.00 on every unit sold. Because of these
high production costs, the 900-series was discontinued after just
one single year of production.Today, the Light Eight is a prized
collector's itema testament to a time when Packard chose perfection
over profit. Don't miss the chance to own a vehicle that truly
defined the State of the Art. Local to our Dealership? We are Open
