1947 Packard Clipper Custom Limo Built by Briggs Body Company in Detroit on November 15 1946, this 1947 Limo is one of a kind. It was reportedly built for the Chairman of the Briggs Company and is unique. There is no glass divider so that it could be owner driven. However, it does feature closed rear quarters to give privacy to the rear seat occupants. The rear seating area is large and included to jump seats for guests. A radio is also built into the right arm rest area. As you can see, the Packard is extremely straight on every panel. New paint was applied several years ago and is show quality. The broadcloth interior and straight hair Wilton carpet is also in excellent condition needing no repairs at all. The Packard straight eight engine coupled to a manual transmission is a powerful and smooth. This is an unusual and beautiful Limo that could easily be used as a Wedding car or it would be welcomed at any CCCA Tour, as it is a full Classic on the Show field it is also a hit with spectators. The massive size (21 feet) and the smooth lines contribute to its beauty. $46,500. http://robertpass.com/inventory_details.asp?InventoryNum=1128

1953 Nash Healey LeMans Coupe

1953 Nash Healey LeMans Coupe Production started in 1950 after a chance meeting of Donald Healey and Nash’s George Mason. The original car was steel, body by Panelcraft of England, chassis by Healey and engine by Nash. By 1952 the body was restyled by Pinn Farina and the chassis was special built by Healey. Nash upgraded the engine to develop 140 hp with its “LeMans Jetfire” overhead-valve inline six cylinder, dual carburetor creation. In 1953, with a longer wheelbase (108 inches), a coupe body was fashioned for the all aluminum main body. A tachometer, leather upholstery, and rear quarter windows made the Healey a true GT car rivaling Europe’s best. This Nash Healey was restored from an excellent original car and has been part of a private collection.

1934 Ford V-8 Cabriolet 1934 Ford Cabriolet This Ford was just awarded BEST OF SHOW at the Annual HCC Easter Show held in St. Louis, Missouri this year. The restorer is a perfectionist and did a fantastic job making this Ford correct in every way. Correct 1934 85ph V-8 engine with factory aluminum heads and correct 1934 Aluminum intake manifold with a Stromberg carburetor. As you can see in the pictures of this Black Cabriolet with brown leather interior by LeBaron Bonney, it is equipped with a correct T-14 top as well. A correct rubber mat graces the cockpit and the rumble seat area. Also note the correct triple pin stripe, cowl lights, and the Greyhound radiator ornament. This restoration was finished this year and is as fresh as they get.. Enjoy the pictures. Priced at $79,500. http://robertpass.com/inventory_details.asp?InventoryNum=1124

1960 Jaguar XK150 3.8 Coupe 1960 Jaguar XK150 3.8 Coupe This is truly a rust free West Coast XK that has been correctly maintained by two owners since 1960. It has traveled only 43,XXX miles and ready to tour anywhere. The 3.8 engine makes it a delight to drive. The Heritage Certificate shows that all of the numbers on the engine, gearbox, etc. are original. A new XKSS stainless steel exhaust system is the only major change in the car. Although the original system was “ok”, I felt it would be a safer and practical way to make the Jaguar safer on the road. This is a must see and drive XK !!!. It needs nothing but a new enthusiast owner. Priced below market at $98,500. http://robertpass.com/inventory_details.asp?InventoryNum=1123
