Bump

Received: When I received the car it was in fair condition, I called it a twenty footer. It had been sitting for a long time with no maintenance. The first thing I did was the mechanical work, rebuilding the fuel system, carburetor, fuel pump, gas gauge. Engineered and machined a new shutter thermostat that opens at 140 degrees, rebuilt both wiper motors, did some rewiring, installed a master switch, rebuild installed modern seal in the water pump, etc. Engine: Disassembled everything off the block that was removable, restored, painted, then reassembled. Body: Fixed all gaps then proceeded to repaint the body. Repainted to the original colors of the car which is Swiss Green #1 (belt line), Swiss Green #4 (main body), both are polychromatic (metallic) with silver pinstriping and black fenders. Stretched the top, resealed and recolored. Had to do some clearing on the wood in the interior. Restored, refinished the running boards. I finished the restoration in May 2021.

The first known owner was Dorothy McDermott of Hicksville, NY. Next owner was noted collector Don Stein of Lafayette IN., then the car went West to Colorado in 2005 to Tom Kowalski who I purchased from. Design: While not branded as such the design was a product of Packard's long-running relationship with Dietrich and the Dietrich department of the Murray body works. Ray Dietrich design, Packard built. The Car: For 1932 Packard continued to set the marque high for automotive luxury. The company’s new ride control offered three settings ensuring a smooth ride on both paved and unpaved surfaces. Equipped with an optional high-compression cylinder head for the 384.8 cubic inch inline eight as well as an updated Detroit Lubricator 51 carburetor and air cleaner assembly bumping output to a respectable 135 horsepower. The styling was a careful evolution of earlier models with the distinct Packard radiator shell still prominently leading the way. The 903 models rode on a 142.5-inch wheelbase, weighing 4727 lbs. Note: In 1932 there were only 955 of 10 different body styles made of the 903 models and only about 140 of Victoria’s made with only a handful still exist. This car has aluminum A pillars, doors, trunk pan and top cowl vent with one of one optional chrome disc wheels from the factory.

1934 Packard 1101-2/4 Coupe Packards magnificent 11th. series represents the pinnacle of all Packards. The 2/4 passenger coupe styling department drastically chopped the roof height from previous years, giving the ‘34 coupe a low and sleek look. The 1101 chassis based on a 136.5 in. wheelbase, with a straight 8, 320 cu.in. 120 hp. engine. Weight of 4,500 lbs. and sold for $2,550 in 1934. Restoration finished in 2019, car was in good shape when I bought it except for a lot of chrome work needed. I had the rear bumper, the rumble seat step and windshield frame chromed. The hood vents handles are made from pot metal which were bad. I had new ones molded out of silicone bronze and chromed. I added chrome trim rings and a total engine repaint, chrome acorn nuts, etc. New clutch, new starter, new brake shoes, 4 new Firestone tires, new running board covers, new shutter thermostat and LED bulbs. All gauges work even the clock. The car starts, drives, shifts and stops great. $159,000 obo Richard Rlamb10769@yahoo.com 386-295-7649

Yes, it was Harry Van Iderstine car, it took me two years to get it. There are only two survivors, the other one is in the Gilmore car Museum. There were only 19 sedans made and it was the most expensive Packard in 1930, $6000. i would like to hear from people here of want they think the value of this car is? The attachment is the gas tank cover that shows what the colors will be, black and gunmetal. Also the trunk rack finished. Richard

Working on the carbuator trying to stop the leaks, have already taken it apart three times. First time for me on a two barrel updraft.

A fresh restoration completed in October 2016 and shown at two Concours d' Elegance, one at Lake Mirror where it won best in class and the other at the prestigious Amelia Island where it got awarded a Amelia Award.
