1954 Packard Patrician

A rare opportunity to own one of the last true luxury Packards – this 1954 Packard Patrician represents the height of American automotive prestige in the post-war era. With a whisper of provenance linking it to the Wrigley family (yes, that Wrigley – of chewing gum fame), this elegant saloon offers more than just classic style. It’s a conversation piece with pedigree. Finished in a refined two-tone Grey with period-correct broadcloth interior, this top-of-the-line Patrician 400 is powered by its original 359 cu in straight-eight engine, topped with a four-barrel carburetor and coupled to a smooth Ultramatic automatic transmission. Recent maintenance includes a brand-new mechanical fuel pump, ensuring the car runs reliably and smoothly. Highlights: • Believed to have once belonged to Mrs. Wrigley of the Wrigley Chewing Gum dynasty • Excellent mechanical condition, drives beautifully • Original 359ci straight-eight engine with four-barrel carb • Older restoration, still using original 6V electrical system • Ultramatic automatic transmission • Recent new mechanical fuel pump • Registered on Irish plates – ready to enjoy or show Honest Points: • Some paint blistering visible only upon close inspection • Rear chrome bumper has pitting This is a well-preserved, turn-key classic ideal for collectors, Packard enthusiasts, or anyone who appreciates post-war American elegance. Only selling as downsizing number of classic cars and would like to see this go to a new home where it will be cherished. Can organise finance if needed.
