Introduced during June 1931, the Ninth Series models continue to rank among the finest Classic Era Packards.
More details
The Ninth Series models were now given numerical designations, with the former Standard Eights now available in Model 901 with a 129 ½- inch wheelbase chassis and Model 902 riding a commanding chassis with a 136 ½-inch wheelbase. Comprehensive mechanical upgrades applied to the Ninth Series cars made these beautiful automobiles immensely enjoyable to drive and easier to operate than ever before. A compression increase to 6.0:1 raised engine output to 110 horsepower, with higher or lower ratios optionally available.
The frame now featured a double-drop , X-braced design, giving greater freedom of design for lower and more sporting body designs. Ride Control was standard, and a front bumper mounting harmonic stabilizers at each end was now optionally available. A new four-speed transmission was initially available, but late in the production run, a synchromesh three-speed with overdrive and vacuum-assisted clutch was fitted.
No fewer than 13 body styles were offered on the Standard Eight 901 and 902 lines, with the most elegant and sporting being the Style 509 2/4-Passenger Coupe Roadster, featuring a top that folded flat and a jaunty rumble seat. Delivered new on October 22, 1932, this Packard Standard Eight 902 2/4-Passenger Coupe Roadster carries excellent provenance, including 50 years of single-family ownership until it was purchased by the current owner in 2013. The engine and transmission were rebuilt by Al Prueitt & Sons of Pennsylvania, and they also fully restored the interior, including the complete interior, top, carpets and rumble seat, plus replacement of the electrical wiring in the engine bay and dash area.
In 2015, a full repaint was completed by Advanced Color Tech in two-tone Hunter Green and Midnight Green, plus repainting of the frame. Re-plating of the chrome was performed by Highline Plating in 2015 as well. Dragone Motorcars in Westport, Connecticut rebuilt the updraft carburetor and a service performed during 2015 included rebuilding of the starter.
The odometer shows only 12,983 miles and in addition to period style Firestone 6-ply tires mounted on correct 19-inch wire wheels, this handsome motorcar also features a pair of side mirrors, dual side mounted spares in metal covers, plus a rear luggage rack and trunk. In addition to restoration and service records, this wonderful 1932 Packard Standard Eight 902 2/4-Passenger Coupe Roadster includes the original owner's manual and simply remains a beautifully presented, yet eminently enjoyable CCCA Full Classic motorcar that will be welcomed into a veritable multitude of events the new owner should choose to participate in.
