1953 Packard TV commercial

Packard films are hard to find. In the Gone Autos Collection, I currently have only three TV commercials. And here’s one of them. This spot promotes three important Packard convenience features: power steering, Ultramatic Drive, and power brakes. The Ultramatic shot is interesting, because you get a quick look at a hill at the Packard Proving Grounds in Shelby Township, Michigan.
