nzcarnerd Posted May 6, 2020 Share Posted May 6, 2020 Another photo posted on facebook. I think 1930-31 big series Packard but the body looks odd - maybe from one of the custom builders? A Reo (maybe) behind it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edinmass Posted May 6, 2020 Share Posted May 6, 2020 Sure looks like a custom. Kind of vertical and square. Visor doesn’t look factory. Where was it taken, the plates are not North America. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where was it taken, the plates are not North America. It was posted by someone in Costa Rica. I can only guess that is the photo location. I haven't found any historical Costa Rica plate info on the net yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
58L-Y8 Posted May 6, 2020 Share Posted May 6, 2020 Its a 1928 Packard Custom Eight 443 sedan-limousine, body style no. 316. The two-tone paint treatment of the upper surfaces and window reveals makes it look unusual. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edinmass Posted May 6, 2020 Share Posted May 6, 2020 Spotlights and all white tires with disk wheel also gives it a very different look.............👍 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sidenote: You see several American cars at various European Concours events of the period and what is interesting is seeing how a European would order an American car - they tend to be pretty stylish looking in their equipment and colors.
