Vehicle Description
Step into postwar American luxury with this 1950 Packard Eight Sedan, stock UK10843, finished in elegant Ash Green over a warm Tan Cloth interior. This is the final year of Packard`s celebrated 23rd Series, the car that represented the standard of the world when craftsmanship meant something tangible.
Under the hood sits a 288 cubic inch L-head straight-eight producing 135 horsepower, mated to a 3-speed manual transmission with overdrive. The overdrive is a period-correct feature that auto-engages in high gear when you release the throttle for three to four seconds, turning highway cruising into a smooth, effortless experience.
The odometer shows 71,646 original miles, and everything works as it should. All gauges read properly, the blower motor moves air through defrost, floor, and vent settings, the power antenna raises and pulls down on command, the map light illuminates, turn signals function, and the cigarette lighter is the correct factory unit.
The selling owner has kept meticulous records dating back to 2005 at roughly 65,000 miles, documenting oil changes, ignition service, and routine maintenance.
This Packard runs, drives, and cruises at highway speeds with the confidence you`d expect from a luxury sedan engineered when Detroit still measured success in smoothness, not speed.
