Description of 1939 Packard Convertible Coupe

This 1939 Packard Six Convertible Coupe has been restored to factory specifications and is powered by a 245 cubic inch straight-six backed by a 3-speed manual transmission. This example was recently acquired by the selling dealer from an estate sale and little is known about its history as a result. The Six undercut the preceding 120 to become Packard’s mainstream model, and it rode on a shorter wheelbase than its straight-eight powered siblings but was equipped with the same Safe-T-Flex suspension. The car is offered by by BaT regular MendelsGarage with a clean New Jersey title.
The Packard Six resembled the straight-eight powered 120 series, and the trim on this example appears complete and in very good condition. The wheels wear correct Packard Six branded hubcaps. The seller believes the restoration was completed within the last few years based on the cosmetic condition.
The well-fitted convertible top works as it should and has color-matched top bows and folding mechanisms. The glass rear window is in a zip-out panel that can be stowed for improved ventilation with the top up.
There are some small flaws around the body like a chip in the paintwork on the left side of the hood as seen above.
The interior shows well, with brand-new looking leather and carpets, clear instrumentation, and a glossy finish on the dash and matching window surrounds. The ashtrays and green leather sun visors are included but not installed. The odometer shows 122 miles and might have been reset after the the restoration, though true mileage is unknown.
The car is powered by a 245 cubic inch straight-six that was good for around 100 horsepower when new and is backed by a 3-speed manual gearbox with synchromesh on the upper gears. Records are not available from the previous owner, though the seller states that the car runs smoothly.
The underside appears clean, with intact paint on the chassis and driveline. This car features Packard’s Safe-T-Flex suspension, which debuted on the Packard Junior line in the mid-1930s and had a reputation for very good ride quality. This car appears very well presented, and could be taken to the next level with some attention to the minor cosmetic issues.
