I love the Station Sedan. It ranks right up there with the Chrysler Building and palm trees! ...and the '56-'58 Packard Clipper tail light assembly... gorgeous!

Packard Station Sedan. This car was produced by Packard in the standard Eight series from 1948 through 1950. Only 3,864 of these unusual Packards were produced at a price of $ 3,425. The Station Sedan had a station wagon appearance and was made almost entirely of steel. Structural wood was used for the tailgate and it featured decorative wood trim on the doors. The wheelbase was 120 inches. Under the hood was Packard's new 288 straight eight rated at 130 horsepower. The Station Sedan was based on Packard's new post-war flow through fender design that replaced the more slender beautifully contoured stylish Packard Clippers of 1942-1947, that featured the last of the tall graceful center verticle grille theme that had been a Packard trademark for more than a decade. The new post-war design seemed fat and chunky by comparison, and was referred to by many as the "Pregnant Elephant". But somehow, on the Station Sedan, the new styling was better executed and seemed a better fit for this rare and unusual Packard.

This is a 1948 Packard wagon sedan, not 38. Fabulous car.
