Hoping to catch still more of the market, Packard decided to issue the Packard 115C in 1937, which was powered by Packard's first six-cylinder engine since the Fifth Series cars in 1928. While the move to introduce the Six, priced at around $1200,was brilliant, for the car arrived just in time for the 1938 recession, it also tagged Packards as something less exclusive than they had been in the public's mind, and in the long run hurt Packard's reputation of building some of America's finest luxury cars. The Six, redesignated 110 in 1940–41, continued for three years after the war, with many serving as taxicabs.[ The same year, the company introduced a fifth, transverse shock absorber and made column shift (known as Handishift) available on the 120 and Six. _______________________________________________________________ PLEASE TAKE THE TIME TO LOOK AT ALL PHOTOS CAREFULLY!PLEASE CONTACT US WITH ANY QUESTIONS/COMMENTS.VERY IMPORTANT: (1) If you are new to eBay or have a zero (0) feedback score you MUST CONTACT us prior to bidding or your bid will be cancelled!
