Something about this 1950 Packard Deluxe Eight club sedan for sale on Hemmings.com struck me as odd when I first came across it the other day. Something about its shape, which appeared on the 1948 through 1950 club sedans on the 120-inch wheelbases, and which looked less like a Packard and more like a…
…Saab 93, circa late 1955 through mid-1960, though based on the Saab Project 92, which dates back to the Ursaab of 1947. That sort of stubby fastback rear, yes, but also the slab sides with a hint of bulbuousness that taper back toward shallow catwalks, the rear wheel cutouts, the straight-back trim, the small rear window, the angled-forward B-pillar – even the horizontal taillamps look the part.
Coincidence? Maybe. If not, somebody explain.
