This 1953 Packard Clipper is for sale in our Louisville KY
showroom. The Packard company was started in 1899 by the Packard
brothers and their partner George Weiss who was a major stock
holder for Winton cars. After the complaints of poor quality and
reliability fell on deaf ears at Winton which pushed the guys to
produce their first "horseless carriage "on November 6th 1899.
Improving throughout the beginning of the turn the century until
they closed their doors in 1958. The 50's era Clipper has that
iconic bubble style that people fell instantly fell in love with.
This one of a kind 53 has took that great styling and put a modern
spin on the rest of it. Starting with the one of a kind blue paint
that covers the unbelievably smooth paint sheet metal. Giving a
stark contrast from that blue is the white top that has the classic
silver flake scattered throughout. Naturally attitude with cars is
a big thing and a big factor in that is altitude. Well this Packard
has you covered no matter what you're in the mood for. Converted
over to a 4 link in the back and bags all the way around the
adjustability is literally endless. Roll into the next car show
with the bags filled and everyone thinks oh that's a nice Packer
and looks nice. Once you hit the switches releasing all the air and
this Clipper sits down giving it a whole new look. If that doesn't
get you enough attention just hit the 4 trumpet train horns and
guaranteed everyone will know you have arrived. Open the door on
this unique sedan and a fresh interior is staring you right back in
the face. The bench seat is super comfortable and looks like it
should be in there with the pattern mimicking the outside. The
straight 8 under the hood is believed to be original and is one of
the smoothest motors that I have come across. With the electrical
system being converted over to a more modern 12V system there
should be no problem running all the cool modern stuff including
that compressor. If you want a cool classic that is sure to get
attention from young, old and in between this 53 Clipper is a great
candidate. Options on this 1953 Packard Clipper include, Cloth
Interior, Wide White Wall Tires and Air Ride Suspension. For more
