1938 Packard Sedan

Description

When it's time for true distinction, this 1938 Packard Sedan is exactly what you want. After all, it has a custom interior, big 500ci V8, overdrive transmission, and upgraded suspension all wrapped around a sleek version of seldom-seen sedan.

There was no better way to say premium in the 1930s than with a Packard, and so that's the perfect place to start with a custom street machine. It retains all the best upper-class pieces like the tall waterfall grille, and the bright chrome bumper that dips so you can see it better. And it's hard to have something better leading the way than Packard's large goddess hood ornament. Mixed with this classic style is a slick burgundy paint that takes advantage of modern clearcoat to really highlight the classic sheetmetal. This is furthered by a silver stripe package that starts at the hood and runs all the way down the body to showcase how straight this classic remains today. Plus, you'll love all the details, like the sport mirrors, shaved door handles, side-opening trunk, and the custom fenders that nicely tuck the 15-inch alloy wheels.

Pop the remote door openers to reveal a full custom interior. The exterior burgundy continues, and now it's joined for a nicely coordinated mauve. In total, it delivers a full custom package that looks like your favorite wines. This was built for true comfort up front with plush bucket seats, power adjustments, an armrest center console, and even cup holders. And you'll love showing off the rear, too, where suicide doors lead to seating that's just as custom as the front. This has all the right luxuries, such as power windows, air conditioning, and an AM/FM/cassette stereo with CD changer. But more than just comfortable, this is a true driver's machine. You know that the moment you slip behind the Lecarra steering wheel and gaze at the full digital gauge package.

The engine bay was built to be a bold standout. After all, not only was the firewall painted a distinct blue, but also the intake and the Cadillac script on the bright valve covers. And that Caddy name also is a big hint to all of us that this has a big daddy V8. The 500 cubic-inch motor was famous for being the largest Cadillac powerhouse around, and it was perfect to deliver huge power and torque to the now-classic Caddys. This premium powerplant in this premium Packard only gets better with upgrades like Edelbrock four-barrel carburetor, MSD ignition, and rumbling glasspack-style dual exhaust. So this is a true street machine. And because of that, it also has terrific upgrades like the updated independent front suspension, four-speed automatic transmission w/overdrive, and superior stopping power of four-wheel disc brakes.

Smooth, powerful, and absolutely unique - this is the excellent custom that's easy to drive and will turn heads everywhere. So if you want to stand out in all best ways, call today!
