  • The Rise and Demise of the Packard Speedsters
    text by RONALD SIEBER photos WEST PETErsON the rise and demise of the Packard Speedsters Packard’s storied rise as a successful car manufacturer, whose origins date from a confrontation in 1898 between James Ward Packard and Alexander Winton, is well-known historical fact. From well-engineered plans and an attention to detail, this luxury automobile company steadily evolved and thrived by offering what its well-heeled customer base wanted, which in turn heavily influenced >>>>what Packard subsequently offered its customers in future years. Packard had produced a runabout model as early as 1904, and indeed a version of the Model L was raced by its design engineer, Charles Schmidt. The “Gray Wolf,” as it was known, set a speed record on Daytona Beach in January 1904, and Schmidt placed fourth in the first Vanderbilt Cup race in October, a significant drubbing of many larger, more powerful European steeds. Packards would occasionally do well in endurance and hillclimb competitions, but at the hands of privateers. Packard did not support a race team, nor did it delve deeply into the nascent but growing speedster phenomenon that was sweeping across America. Packard runabouts were large, open, cabriolet-style vehicles meant to cruise in style, a strategy that it adhered to up into the 1920s. Because of this myopic viewpoint, it completely missed the speedster and sport roadster market of the early 1920s that was all the rage on moneyed college campuses and in country clubs. 42 ANTIQUE AUTOMOBILE • JANUARY / FEBRUARY 2019 JANUARY / FEBRUARY 2019 • ANTIQUE AUTOMOBILE 43 By 1922, the postwar economic slump was largely over, employment was on the rise again, and markets were picking back up.
