fullcircle Posted September 3, 2019 Share Posted September 3, 2019 Listing my parents 1957 Packard Station Wagon. This is a third owner 58k original mile car. When my father and I found and bought the car in 2003 I personally had the engine, transmission, brake system, cooling system, supercharger rebuilt by the best sources available. From the center stainless up its original paint and all of the interior except the front seat is original upholstery. Very unique rare car only 869 were made. Asking $27,000 obo.

auburnseeker Posted September 3, 2019 Share Posted September 3, 2019 Boy with that low of a production to begin with, I wonder how many came with the factory supercharger? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bryankazmer Posted September 3, 2019 Share Posted September 3, 2019 I think all of them had the supercharger as standard. Studebaker's effort to keep the horsepower similar to the previous Packard-designed V8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bundies Posted September 13, 2019 Share Posted September 13, 2019 Love Packards but have never owned one. I often wonder if automotive politics had been different, how Packard would have competed with Mercedes. But a 1957 wagon is a Scotsman in a Tux.

bryankazmer Posted September 13, 2019 Share Posted September 13, 2019 Studebaker-Packard was Mercedes sales and service arm for a few years in the US, so they were partners. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
auburnseeker Posted September 13, 2019 Share Posted September 13, 2019 Some brochures even showed all three makes. One paper comes to mind they printed right at the end and all 3 were on the cover. I think the Sutdebaker logo also took on the tristar Mercedes emblem in the late 50's or early 60's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They put the Tri star on the early 53 C/K models. Mercedes sued and Studebaker removed the emblems early in on the 53 run. But it’s a good indicator of an early 53 model.
