Description
This 1940 Packard One Twenty Club Coupe was delivered new to Zell Motor Car Company of Baltimore, Maryland, and it spent 35 years in the family of the previous owner before it was purchased on BaT in November 2023. The car is finished in burgundy over tan cloth upholstery, and power comes from a 282ci straight-eight paired with a column-shifted three-speed manual transmission. Features include an independent front suspension, a Goddess of Speed hood ornament, running boards, and a heater.
The car was repainted in burgundy under previous ownership and features chrome bumpers, a Goddess of Speed hood ornament, fender-mounted parking lamps, running boards, and dual taillights. There is rust on the bottom of the passenger door and the trunk lid, and imperfections in the paint are noted by the seller.
Body-color steel wheels wear chrome hubcaps, trim rings, and Firestone whitewall bias-ply tires. A spare wheel is stowed beneath the trunk floor. The Safe-T-Flex suspension features front upper A-arms mounted to lever-arm hydraulic shock absorbers, lower A-arms formed by control and torque arms, coil springs, and an anti-roll bar, while the solid rear axle is mounted with leaf springs and telescopic shock absorbers. Stopping power is provided by hydraulic drums at each corner.
