1941 Packard 110

Description

A pre-war Packard is a rare sight, and so this 1941 Packard 110 gets plenty of attention for just showing up. And with upgraded V8 power and a driver-ready style, this coupe can show up in plenty more places.

This car has a cool presence, the maroon has a nice metallic to highlight the curvy fenders, and the black has a touch of barn find style. There's a beautiful trim line that starts at the hood and looks around the rear to give this two-tone a clear dividing line. And speaking of the trim, all the best brightwork features are in place, like the triple waterfall grille, detailed chrome bumpers, running board trim, and the shining Goddess of Speed leading the way. The 110 line were the more popularly-priced Packards. But when you are at this level of premium, they were infrequently seen when new and are basically absent from the road 80+ years later. So that's what gets us excited about this one. It has a clean and complete look of a true classic and an overall style that will never make you nervous to drive it. And as you look at the full package, you can really see a classic made to be a true cruiser.

Open the door to a vintage experience. The upholstery is done in a premium striped cloth, the door panels are done to match, the dash has the classic wood-like style, and the big steering wheel has the beautiful Packard emblem in the center. Even the carpeted trunk looks cool with the classic full-size spare. It all has the plush feeling you want in a true cruiser. And the upgraded gauges give you a complete picture of what's going on under the hood.

When you lift the butterfly hood, the golden engine block seems right for a premium Packard. But this is actually a younger Oldsmobile 350 cubic-inch V8. Not only is this more displacement than what Packard offered, but it also loves upgrades. So you have a Summit four-barrel carburetor and a Holley Street dominator intake. There are more handy upgrades like a 200-4R automatic transmission and electric cooling fan. It still has the classic car feel, but Packards were known for their nice ride. And you even have modern touring tires.

The value price leaves room in your budget if you want to give it a respray, restore the overdrive to the transmission, or take this one down a full restomod path. But none of that is necessary to enjoy this Packard. After all, we really like how this gives you a distinctive classic that was made to be an excellent cruiser. And you get all of that on day one.
