Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

368/28.8hp opposed twin, two carburetors, 3-speed sliding gear transmission, rear entrance tonneau with a fixed surrey roof, wood-framed windshield, wicker pannier baskets, electric starter.

Condition

Believed to be the sole surviving Packard Twin, bought by Lindley Bothwell seven decades ago Damaged in the 1949 fire and accurately restored to its original configuration after An old restoration showing its age, sound and usable but in need of much work and some new upholstery in the rear where critters lived

Market commentary

One of the stars of the Bothwell collection and an important milestone in the development of the automobile in America it deserves and no doubt will receive a comprehensive restoration in its new owner''s hands but first might be gone through mechanically and subjected to the judgment of the VCC Dating Committee in anticipation of a turn at the LBVCR in 2018 where its presentation would be acclaimed. While it is expensive there is no denying its value and significance.
