1953 Packard

Classic Car Marketing, Inc. is privileged to have just acquired an exquisite collection of rare and pristine motor cars offered for the first time to the public. This 1953 Packard Caribbean Convertible in a stunning Gulf Green with matching leather interior is sure to take your breath away and is a rare piece of automotive history at its absolute finest. With a limited production run of only 750, the exclusive Caribbean was Packard's halo vehicle. It was introduced in November 1952 with the rest of the 1953 line, and its styling was derived directly from the stunning Packard Pan American show car of 1952. Mitchell-Bentley Corporation modified standard Packard convertible bodies to achieve the sleek, elegant European appearance of the Caribbean. The car was devoid of regular side trim and had special full-wheel cutouts and rocker panels edged in chrome. It also had a Continental kit nestled nicely between lengthened rear fenders. Interiors were luxuriously rich leather which was standard. A 327 cubic inch, 180 horsepower version of Packard's legendary straight eight provided motivation. Most Caribbean's were also generously optioned, although the Ultramatic transmission and power windows were optional cost items on the first year model. These cars are highly sought after in the collectible automobile market, and our client has done everything to make sure that this is one of the very best Caribbeans in market today. Offered at $175,000 OBO, the car is as rare as it gets. This is an opportunity to own one of the best examples of a 1953 Packard Caribbean Convertible from truly a collection of perfection.
