PACKARD SUPER 8 (1939)

5-seat saloon, de luxe saloon, cloub coupé, convertible coupé, limousine, de luxe limousine.

By now the Super 8 had 120 sheetmetal and chassis, so coil spring ifs was in, and the styling is nowhere near as elegant as '38 cars. Limos on 148ins wheelbase tend to look overly long, but that evergreen eight was still producing the goods.
