1942 Packard Clipper

The 1942 Packard Clipper featured a three part grille with the bars of two outboard sections wrapping around the corner of the front fenders and flowing back to the wheel opening.

The styling of these Clippers, the last before production was interupted by WWII, was very smooth with the front fenders flowing gracefully into the front doors.

A single trim strip ran from the grille all the way back nearly to the trailing edge of the trunk lid.

I saw this car at the 2007 Kruse Concours in Auburn, IN. That's also where I took these pictures.
