Packard Six

The Packard Six was a series of luxury cars built over three generations by Packard from 1913 until 1947, though the name covered variants from 1912. The first generation, offered 1912 to 1915 in 38 and 48 forms with 415 and 525 cubic inch engines and three wheelbases, was Packard's first six-cylinder platform and the last to use the word model. The second, from 1921 to 1928, began as the Single Six on a 116 inch wheelbase and became a mid-level car beside the Single Eight. After ten years without one, Packard reintroduced a six in 1937 as the 115-C, a cheaper companion to the One-Twenty with a 236.7 cubic inch L-head engine, which became the One-Ten in 1940. After the war the six-cylinder cars were called Clipper.
