The Nineteenth Series ushered in design changes; it was the first year that Packard incorporated headlights in the fenders and made running boards optional.
And this striking 1485 DE Coupe (DE signifies Deluxe) is even more exceptional. It rides on a 123-inch wheelbase, has a backup light and features chrome exterior window frames and four dramatic stainless spears on the fenders,
The interior is just as compelling and comfortable . . . with a working radio (converted to AM/FM), clock (converted to quartz), heater (under-seat as well) and defroster. The pristine seats feature a two-tone upgraded wool broadcloth and look brand-new
Ownership history is available from 2005 through the present. In 2009 the last owner decided he wanted to make it perfect again and spent over $31,000 on a body-off restoration (documented receipts and photos of the restoration are available).
Be sure to look closely at the photo gallery here, especially at the interior and the trim along the door and windshield frames. You’ll quickly appreciate the high-quality work and care that have been lavished on this classic.
In fact, it’s easy to see why -- following its 2009 restoration -- this Packard won an AACA First Place award the same year. Soon after, it won its First Senior at the Fall Meet in Hershey, Pennsylvania.
When purchased by the current owner in 2021, the car didn’t run well, as it had been sitting unused for a few years due to the last owner’s illness. Since then, everything mechanical as well as cosmetic has recently been addressed. In addition, the gas tank and fuel system were cleaned, brakes replaced, head removed, and engine rebuilt.
This Packard 110 Deluxe is as good as we have seen and driven. As the next owner, you’ll be able to tour and show this car at any event from the first day you slide behind the wheel. Where else will you find such a classic in this condition at this price?
But, after all, it IS a Packard . . . ask the man who owns one.
