All Packard 120’s came equipped with the inline 8
cylinder “L” head engines producing 120hp @ 3,800 rpm and capable of getting the
120 up to a top speed of 85 mph. In
order to handle such speeds safely, a new independent front suspension was
designed, the “Safe-T-Flex” front end featured unequal length “A” arms similar
to what is still used today making for a comfortable/safe ride.
Finished in a cream exterior, complemented by a brown
leather interior and a white convertible soft top. Its inline 8 engine and 3 speed floor
shifted transmission propel the car beautifully and smoothly, just as one would
expect from a luxury automobile. The extremely popular feature of a Roadster,
has to be the “Rumble Seat.” Designed with a deep foot well for comfort and
space, the 120 Roadster also has steps integrated into the passenger side body
lines for easy entrance and exit. Also featured on this particular car are
options such as a heater, driving lamps and 3-tone horn. This wonderful Packard has been well
maintained and cared for by its previous owner for many years and ready for the
next chapter in its life.
