Packard was the gold standard for a while and built cars that exceeded expectations while surpassing the competition. The Packard Twelve Limousine was a sign of wealth in a time where there wasn't much wealth to be had. Only 448 were built in '39 and few remain today. The 1708 version of the Packard Twelve marked the end of such enormous luxury cars. The engine was nearly perfected by 1939 and it still runs great today.
