pilou ◊ 2005-10-24 16:04	Packard 22nd series model 2233 Custom Eight Victoria Convertible with the 356 cubic inch straight eight developing 160 horsepower of 1948.
IHateFreedom ◊ 2008-11-29 02:17	Jeez...eight cylinders on that big, heavy car, and all it gets is 160 hp? Beautiful car, though...

jettalover ◊ 2010-01-12 07:43	356 cubic inches equals 5.9 liters?

It was immortalized by its extensive use in the Back to the Future movies, which starred Michael J. Fox and Christopher Lloyd, and is featured in numerous scenes in the original movie as well as in both sequels. It is perhaps best remembered for its role in the pivotal scenes outside Hill Valley High School’s “Enchantment Under the Sea” dance. An abundance of documentation and correspondence relating to its film appearances accompany the sale. Lovingly maintained in a Southern California family’s collection since 1977, this Packard was extensively refurbished between 2001 and 2006, with receipts on file for paint, chrome, wiring, interior work, and a new canvas top.

Exiv96 ◊ 2019-01-13 19:55	I saw that too, via Hemmings. I've updated the year on its two other appearances. But the chassis code should probably be updated too. chicomarx wrote Chassis: 2259-9-3113
chicomarx ◊ 2019-01-21 01:12	SOLD $72,800.
portacker ◊ 2022-07-20 03:42	Know as the "Bathtub" Packard, for obvious reasons. The big straight eight wasn't a horsepower monster, but had exceptional tourqe. It was also Packard's downfall. They didn't develop a OHV V-8, because this eight was proven. They didn't have to money to develop a whole new engine They waited until 55. They hoped Studebaker would have the cash to invest in new motor tooling, hence the merger. But in the end, it took to long, they were supplanted by Lincoln, Imperial and Cadillac. -- Last edit: 2022-07-20 04:01:30

Nice but also sad history.
