This 1949 Packard Eight Touring Sedan blends classic postwar American luxury with full-size 1970s Cadillac power and comfort.

The result is a restomod that preserves the vintage aesthetic while offering more modern drivability. Finished in a handsome two-tone maroon and tan combination, this Packard delivers the look of 1949 with the cruising confidence of late-1970s American luxury engineering.
Jaguar Cars of Britain is well known for making some fine sporting machines during its long history. Before we had examples such as the breathtaking E-Type, or XK-E in North America, machines like the XK120, XK140 and XK150 ruled the roost. These were fine sports cars meant to embody the spirit of driving, and targeted at those who desired the best blend of luxury and driving pleasure. Between 1954 and 1957, it was the turn of the XK140 which brought more interior space as well as upgraded mechanicals over the XK120 which it replaced. A total of 8,937 cars was made during this time, with just 1,959 fixed-head coupes produced in left-hand drive. That makes this 1956 Jaguar XK140 one of 1,959 units, a statistic that places it in greater rarity than some supercars! If you’d like to be its next custodian, this 3.4-liter machine awaits your kind consideration in New Albany, Ohio.
Packard is an American auto brand that you’ve likely never heard of, or if so, in passing. Your parents might know if it though, your grandparents definitely will. That’s because the Packard Motor Company of Detroit, Michigan made cars between 1899 and 1956. They are widely known as the purveyors of the modern steering wheel, air conditioning in cars, and one of the first production 12-cylinder engines! Sad, then, that such an iconic brand died a quiet death in the Fifties, merging with Studebaker by 1953 and quietly disappearing thereafter. One of their last models was the 200, and we have an example for sale today. This 1951 Packard 200 comes from Marietta, Georgia, and has done just 19,000 miles as per what we’ve been told. It’s a fine classic car for those who seek an unusual choice rather than going with the usual suspects from the major brands.
