FM-1102 · Pre-War · 1919 – 1942

1937 Packard One-Twenty Convertible Coupé

Boulevard elegance from Packard's finest decade, restored and toured with care.

$79,500 USD

Grade II — Older restoration, maturing

The motor car

The One-Twenty brought true Packard engineering to a wider audience without diluting the marque's presence, and the convertible coupé remains the shape collectors seek. This car is finished in ivory over an oxblood leather interior with a tan canvas hood — a period-correct combination that photographs as well as it drives.

The straight-eight starts promptly and pulls with the unhurried authority these cars are loved for. An older restoration now gently maturing, it is an ideal entry into pre-war touring events: usable, handsome and straightforward to maintain.

Restoration & condition

  • Comprehensive restoration completed circa 2005; repainted in single-stage ivory
  • Hood, hood bag and side curtains renewed in tan canvas
  • Brakes relined and hydraulics renewed 2024
  • Correct hubcaps, trim rings and wide whitewalls
  • Radio delete; heater present and functional

Graded Grade II — Older restoration, maturing under the Ferrobello grading standard. A high-quality restoration that has settled in beautifully — light mellowing of paint and leather, mechanically kept without compromise. Often the most rewarding grade to own and drive.
