One of the nicest 1932 Packards available on the market today!

A collectors dream!

For 1932 Packards Standard Eight line saw several improvements. The 902 Series models came with a new frame with a 136.5 wheelbase that featured double drops for the axles and cross-bracing for extra rigidity. Adjustable suspension referred to as Ride Control was now a standard feature and meant the 1932 Packard Eight ensured a smooth ride on both paved and unpaved surfaces. The 320 cubic inch straight-8 was given an increased compression ratio of 6.0 to 1 and raised horsepower to 110. Available body styles for the 1932 line was plentiful as both the 902 and 903 series offered 12 unique designs based around a dramatic low profile. One of the most stunning offerings was the Sport Phaeton. This iconic design featured dual side mount spare tires with a foldable dual cowl and gave the rear seated passengers an exclusive feel. Options were plentiful from an available luggage rack, spot lamps and Pilot-Ray driving lights that rotated with the front wheels and were typically only seen on the V12 models. Of the 3,700 902 Standard Eight Chassis only a seldom number would leave the Packard factory with the stunning Dual Cowl Sport Phaeton body and of those only a handful are known to exist today. Its stunning lines appealed new to driving enthusiasts of all classes, just as today the Sport Phaeton is typically only seen in the some of the worlds more premier collections.
