Packard offered its production station wagon beginning in mid-1937. The model was discontinued for 1938, then brought back for 1939 with bodies produced by J.T. Cantrell of Huntington, New York. During 1940, Cantrell bodies were gradually phased out in favor of a new design by Hercules of Evansville, Indiana. For 1941’s much-improved Nineteenth Series, Hercules supplied Packard with 358 station wagon bodies, mounted to both the six-cylinder 110 and eight-cylinder 120 chassis, both available in standard or deluxe trim.

The One-Ten Station Wagon offered here was originally sold in New York City; though no documents survive to prove the fact, it was purportedly kept for decades by its original owner, a physician, at a vacation property in Rhode Island. It was later acquired by the renowned collector Ken McBride of Washington State, who in 2010 sold it to Elco Motor Yachts Chairman Steve Lamando, in whose care it was kept at his property on Lake George in New York—appropriately with an outstanding collection of vintage boats, which it nicely matched.

Late in 2013, the Packard was acquired by Ray and Bonnie Kinney, in whose good hands it has been gently improved and maintained over the last 13 years. Invoices on file indicate light freshening of the paint as needed in 2014, replacement of the head gasket and rebuilding of the starter in 2015, and work to the front suspension in both 2017 and 2019, keeping the wagon in good order. Its Miami Sand finish is still very attractive, while, significantly, much of the body wood is original with a rich, deep luster, showing minor repair areas only around the rear tailgate hinges. Much of the interior, too, has remained original, with areas repaired or replaced only as necessary over the past 80-odd years.

A wonderful example of one of Packard’s most evocative models, this well-loved, nicely preserved “woodie” awaits enjoyment by its new owner at their vacation home—exactly as it has been kept and savored for almost all of its life.To view this car and others currently consigned to this auction, please visit the RM website at rmsothebys.com/auctions/mo26/.
