Leif in Calif Posted March 25, 2023 Share Posted March 25, 2023 Does look like a nice example, but there are lots of shows.... An Ohio car advertised on Las Vegas CL...perhaps the owner hopes to get lucky. https://lasvegas.craigslist.org/cto/d/new-lebanon-1938-packard-straight-eight/7602594238.html 1938 Packard Super Eight with the Straight 8 engine, 3-speed transmission. This car is all Original in beautiful condition. It took Best of Show this past year. I have the spare tire covers for fenders that goes with the car. Call or Text for more information. Thank you 937-559-530FIVE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdamInNH Posted March 25, 2023 Share Posted March 25, 2023 Such poor quality photos. Seems like a nice car, though. I like the 38’s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trimacar Posted March 25, 2023 Share Posted March 25, 2023 These are great cars. Only issue is that the Super Eights in 1938 had metallurgical issues with block casting. Crystallization and cracking of blocks between valve seats, not just some, but common issue with this engine. Once crystallized, the block can’t be repaired. I’ve owned three 1938s, still have one, wonderful driving cars with center point front suspension, steer with a couple of fingers and 60 miles per hour all day long. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Den41Buick Posted March 25, 2023 Share Posted March 25, 2023 I think I have seen it here before. Better pictures would help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingrudy Posted March 25, 2023 Share Posted March 25, 2023 Perhaps the seller could afford a decent camera with the 47K he plans to make on the car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
