Canada

Packard established a branch plant in Windsor, Canada that assembled cars from 1931 to 1939. In 1955, the US Packard Motor Car Co. was taken over by the Studebaker parent company. The firm in Canada became the Studebaker-Packard of Company Canada Ltd but the Studebaker-style Packards were not built in Canada. The Packard name was dropped in 1962. This vehicle was a typical car for middle class Canadian families.

Fonction

Owner driven passenger vehicle for general transportation.

Technique

The first Packard car was made in 1899 and the company to manufacture them was established in 1900, the Ohio automobile co. In 1902, the company became Packard motor car company and moved to Detroit the following year. By 1909 its reputation as a manufacturer of fine cars was established along with Peerless and Pierce-Arrow. The Depression was hard on luxury car manufacturers such as Packard. In 1935 Packard introduced the model one-twenty, a cheaper version was hoped to save the company from bankruptcy. With this model, the company was switching from largely hand-built luxury cars to a mass-produced, mid-priced model. It was called the Junior Packard. The One-twenty name refers to the wheelbase. The car model came in different versions: coupes, convertibles and sedans. The price was much more affordable than the senior models which opened the prestige of Packard ownership to a larger market. The One-twenty was a success. It was produced until 1941. In 1938 the One-twenty was named the Packard Eight. It offered a new design of the 120 model with a longer wheelbase. By 1938, thanks to the 120 and 110 models, Packard had become one of the biggest and richest of the independent automotive producers.
