1941 Packard One Twenty Convertible | 6,082 Miles Shown | Full Ownership Chain | Stock #UK10645
Few pre-war American convertibles arrive with a history this complete. Chassis 14992878 a 1941 Packard One Twenty Convertible finished in Barola Blue over gray leather with a matching blue canvas top is one of the most thoroughly documented examples in the hobby. Its full ownership chain is traceable from its original San Francisco owner through to today, and the paper trail backs up every mile on the odometer.
The history reads like this: the car spent the majority of its life with a single long-term owner in San Francisco, CA. It was acquired from that estate and sold through a prominent online auction in May 2018 out of Redwood City, CA, drawing 59 bids, nearly 22,000 views, and over 670 watchers before hammering at $50,000. The winning bidder relocated the car to the Lake Havasu City, Arizona area, where it received new coil springs from Max Merritt Auto a nationally respected Packard parts supplier along with alignment work, fresh tire mounting, and a new battery. It has since come to Frankman Motor Company in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, where it is offered with the complete documentation file.
The history file dating back to 1995 includes a comprehensive mechanical freshening by Just Packards of Vallejo, CA, covering the clutch-brake assembly, distributor, carburetor, fuel system, wiper arms, and general servicing, with parts sourced concurrently from Packard Parts West in Santa Rosa, CA. Chrome trim was professionally refinished by The Polishing Shop in Oxnard, CA in 2018.
The odometer reads 6,082 miles, consistent with the car`s condition and supported by an unbroken chain of specialist care and documentation. Under the hood sits the 282 cubic inch straight-eight producing 120 hp at 3,600 rpm and 225 lb-ft of torque at 1,800 rpm, paired with a 3-speed column-shift manual with overdrive and Electromatic clutch. Equipment includes a period Guide spotlight, bumper overriders, driving lights, AM radio, heater, and the optional deluxe four-spoke steering wheel, all riding on wide whitewall tires with chrome-trimmed 15`` steel wheels.
