1909 Packard "18" Limousine
This 1909 Packard Model 18 Limousine is being sold from the collection of the late Alex Connell, an avid collector and restorer from Wyoming. The last work performed on the car was in February 2009. The limousine is considered a project because it has been in storage for many years and currently does not run. The car does need restoration. The car retains most of its original parts. According to documents, the original ignition coil was converted to a modern Bosch equivalent.
This Packard is now offered with ownership history, a toolbox, and a clean Wyoming title in the name of the Connell Trust.
