Another Packard....A 1937 model, this one is set up as a Motorhome. As a Memorial Day nod, Packard powered this with a Straight 12-cylinder, but when the 2nd WW broke out, their R&D division came up with a 2 speed supercharged V-12 based on the RR Merlin Fighter plane Engines. These units powered US Navy PT Boats. After the War Packard became another War Casualty, struggling along til they merged with Studebaker....and finally sinking into the wreckage of the pre-war world in 1962. My grandparents owned a Packard....til about 1953. They traded it for a 53 Chevy, and they guy who got it turned it into a Pick-up for his Service station.
