1939 Packard 120 Coupe Street Rod

Description

Packard's famous slogan, "Ask the man who owns one" still applies with this full custom build. After all, with glossy paint, an upgraded V8, an updated suspension, a custom/comfy air-conditioned interior, and much more, there are going to be a ton of people who want to know more about this one-of-a-kind 1939 Packard 120 Coupe.

Packards of this era instantly commanded respect with the bright and tall grille. They are a first-class design with body lines that are artfully allowed to develop with long and flowing fenders. It has a great classic style on everything from the chrome bumpers to the two-piece windshield. And yes, Packard's goddess of speed is still leading the way. But there's also an upgrade in personality. The black paint has a sleeker style that you can tell comes from modern upgrades. It has a good gloss that looks terrific out on the road, and an overall presentation that won't make you nervous about cruising all weekend. In fact, as you dig into all the details, this one shows how the upgrades are all about making it a great driver. So not only do those 17-inch polished Ridler alloys look cool, it also means you get to fit better modern tires.

Open the door to a custom and comfortable interior. The gray cloth looks good against the exterior black, and the pleating will even remind you of a 1930s classic. But you can tell everything here is far fresher. Plus, you have the best upgrades for a modern driver. This includes cold-blowing air conditioning, tinted windows, and a modern AM/FM/CD stereo with USB and Bluetooth. You have a Grant wood-rimmed steering wheel mounted on a tilt column, and beyond that are crisp and clean AutoMeter readouts.

With an upgraded classic like this, you want serious power in a compact package, and none do it better than a Chevy 350 crate V8. And they paid special attention to adding enough shining components so that you'll love to show this off. There's also substance behind the style with upgrades like an Edelbrock four-barrel carburetor, an Edelbrock EPS intake, and shorty headers feeding the dual exhaust. There's also a three-speed automatic transmission, power steering, power brakes, front discs, and a Mustang II-style independent front suspension.

Complete with an owner's manual, this Packard represents the ultimate unique and premium vintage coupe. Don't let something so distinct end up in someone else's garage, call today!
