1899 - Packard Old No. 01
The first Packard built by James Ward Packard in 1899 was this"Old No. 1," which Packard bequeathed to his alma mater, LehighUniversity in Pennsylvania .
The car had been sitting in the case for well over five years. The first step in removing the car was to remove the special "jack stands" which hold the vehicle off the ground in order to protect the tires. After this was done, the pneumatic tires were inflated to approximately 50 psi. Special ramps were then used to roll the car out of the case. Then, a series of three-point turns were used to prepare for the trip down the lobby staircase and out the front door of Packard Lab. http://www.autopuzzles.com/afeature1.htm |
