From the Driver’s Seat - Our team’s personal take on what makes this classic stand out

This is a beautiful pre-war Packard that is perfect for collectors seeking both history and touring enjoyment.

THE ESSENTIALS

This 1933 Packard Eight Series 1002 Phaeton is a well-preserved example powered by the 320ci L-head straight-eight paired with a 3-speed synchromesh transmission.  With the original Light Yellow paint and original black leather interior, this Packard is a beautiful representation that would be a great weekend driver, tourer and welcome at local shows.   

Originally sold new in 1933, one of only 1,099 Series 1002 chassis produced, this Packard has been cared for by a small number of dedicated enthusiasts. The earliest documented owner, Mr. Brown, retained the car for over 25 years before selling it in 1999. David Critchlow Sr. acquired the Packard in 2004, later selling it to Tom Crook, the esteemed Packard expert and restorer. Mr. Crook completed an engine rebuild and sold the car to the current owner in 2013, at which point it had just 4,618 miles since restoration. The current owner has been driven approximately 8,000 miles. This Packard is a former CCCA National First Prize winner and holds CCCA Full Classic status.

This Packard presents well and is in good overall condition. The Light-Yellow paint is in good condition and mostly original with some selected touchups over the years from normal use. The chrome trim accents are in good overall condition with some wear showing in the expected areas from high use. The Packard has dual horns, dual side spotlights, wind wings, windscreen that can lie flat, driving lamps, tan canvas-covered trunk and 17inch wire wheels. The tan canvas top is in good condition with minor fraying in two corners. This Packard is a beautiful, mostly original example that would be welcomed at local shows and a great motorcar to use for touring. 

The Packard’s original interior is in good condition with age showing from regular use. The original black leather seating shows an overall patina with a couple tears. The black leather door sides are in great condition, and the brown carpet is in good overall condition. The dash presents well with the instrument panel in overall good condition. The interior is in considerably well-maintained condition for a Packard that has been a reliable driver over the years.  

This model 1002 is powered by its original 320ci L-head straight-eight with nine main bearings, paired with a three-speed synchromesh manual transmission and single-plate clutch. Fuel is delivered through a Stromberg dual downdraft carburetor with automatic choke and a mechanical fuel pump. Power is sent to a semi-floating rear axle, with the chassis employing semi-elliptic leaf springs and worm-and-roller steering. Stopping power comes from mechanical drum brakes assisted by a vacuum power unit for all four wheels, with adjustments available for brake sensitivity. The car is equipped with Packard’s Ride Control system, offering driver-adjustable shock absorber settings. All factory instrument gauges are functional; a tachometer has been added.

Maintenance highlights include regular servicing every 500 to 750 miles, steering sector shaft and thermostat syphon assembly serviced in 2019 and tires replaced in 2023. The Packard was most recently serviced in July 2025, comes with service records and a collection of service manuals.

The Packard Eight was a luxury automobile produced by Packard between 1924 and 1936, and was a progression from the earlier Packard Six which was first introduced in 1913. Offered in four models, the Standard Eight, Custom Eight, De Luxe Eight, and Speedster it was initially powered by a low-compression aluminum-head L-head inline eight producing 90 bhp (hence the name). Power would be upgraded through the years. Through the years the Eight offered optional (no extra cost) four-speed synchromesh transmission. Like other Packards of this era, it featured Ride Control, a system of dash-adjustable hydraulic shock absorbers. The Eight also featured automatic chassis lubrication and "shatterproof" glass. The Eight was available on several wheelbases: 127.5 in and 134.5 in for the 1930 Standard Eight, 140 in and 145.5 in for the De Luxe in 1931, 130 in and 137 in for the 1932 Standard Eight. For 1938, the Eight's wheelbase was stretched 7 in over 1937, and the body was also wider.
