The Packard Clipper was produced from 1941 to 1942, 1946 to 1947,
and 1953 to 1957. This car represented a break from traditional
styling and embodied an abrupt change in construction techniques.
However, its release was only months before the attack on Pearl
Harbor which hindered production. This 1953 model Packard
represents the rich heritage of its nameplate, but it comes with
the advantage of modern mechanical appeal and sophistication. It
features Kelsey/Hayes wheels with matching spare, which was the
company that made the original spoke wheels for Packard. These are
quality wheels that will not rust in a couple of years such as the
available imports that are being offered. The headliner is
perforated vinyl and has stainless steel bows. Additionally, the
starter has been changed to a push button as opposed to being
located under the accelerator pedal. An electric fuel pump has also
been installed.
This 1953 Packard Clipper Sportster 2-door Sedan has been lovingly
maintained. It has won first place at the Heart of Texas Packard
Meet every time it has been shown, which is second only to the
National Meet. The only reason for selling this impressive classic
is due to age. Don't miss out on this incredible opportunity to own
an award winning classic gem, properly suited for true enthusiasts
and collectors alike! Call today for more information on how you
can get behind the wheel of this impressive Packard!
