58L-Y8 Posted June 15, 2020 Share Posted June 15, 2020 1949 Packard Standard Eight - $5500 - OH - Not Mine https://akroncanton.craigslist.org/cto/d/rootstown-1949-packard/7141053604.html 1949 Packard all original never painted or modified, runs and drives good has some new basic parts. Has some rust in the rockers have new rockers need installed. Phone calls only NO TEXT. Contact: Randy (330) - 2-eighty-three - thirty-nine-09 I have no personal stake or interest in the eventual sale of this 1949 Packard Standard Eight sedan. Parenthetically, I will note that clubs, regions, parts and on-line help support for Packards is among the best for any orphan nameplate. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
old car fan Posted June 15, 2020 Share Posted June 15, 2020 Looks dandy for that money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
58L-Y8 Posted June 15, 2020 Author Share Posted June 15, 2020 The seller notes it needs the rocker panels replaced and that he has a set, though in general looks like a Packard one could enjoy now for a reasonable price and work on later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BucketofBolts Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 The parts alone are worth much more than the $5,500 asking price. Not sure however if this is deemed a "rare" model. They made about 13,000 units I think. How many are still around? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
58L-Y8 Posted June 16, 2020 Author Share Posted June 16, 2020 Not rare at all, 1948-'49 22nd Series Eights and Eight Deluxes were their highest production postwar models, not hard to find in decent shape like this car.. They're rugged, virtually bulletproof mechanically, the four door sedans the most plentiful. The Standard Eight has the 288 cu in eight, if this car has overdrive, it makes them more flexible and enjoyable to drive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
