1954 Packard 2 Door Hardtop Description:
1954PackardPacific
I will be listing a few cars here in the next week or two for my family. We are reducing are number of cars, so please see my other listings as well. I am not a dealer.
Here we have a quite rare 1954 Packard Pacific which was one of the top of line models that year and the last of the big and glorious straight eight engine! The 359ci straight eight in this car came factory with an aluminum head, a 4 barrel carburetor, and 212 HP. This particular car was a demonstration/display car in Deland, FL at the Packard dealership there (building is still there in the town). After it closed, the car remained in the hands of a local family where it was cared for many years. After their passing, the car was handed to a close friend of that family who decided to have the car professionally repainted in 1993. The car has ONLY been used for special occasions and car shows since it was new. It now has only 40k original miles and drives as good today as when it was new! It's truly a wonderful survivor original car and I would love to see this one go to a good Packard home :)

The original straight eight engine runs smooth, quiet, and makes great power. The transmission also shifts well at all speeds.Overall, the car runs and drives excellent and is easy to drive. It handles very well and takes little to no effort to steer and stop. All factory gauges are working (including the gas gauge). The clock and radio appear to be non-op at the moment. Power seat also works great and the windshield wipers are also operational ... The car drives as smooth as anything else on the road! Very quiet. No squeaks or rattles. Drives like you would expect a low mileage car to drive. The factory 6 volt system works fine and the car does not have any issues with overheating. Just serviced and checked. Overall, it is ready to drive and enjoy right now.
If you come and see this car in person you'll be amazed. Cosmetics are all VERY nice and the car displays beautifully. All of the glass is in good condition, doors, hood, trunk, all open and close with a nice "thud". The original upholstery is all very nice! This one is nice enough for any collector or museum. Should win a trophy at most of your local car shows. Certainly one of the best of this model around anywhere and these are hard to find for sale. There were only 1,189 of them ever made.
Please see the photos and ask whatever questions you might have.
