History: This 1927 Packard, once owned by the late John B. Fillauer, has undergone a complete restoration. Originally purchased new by Fillauer, a popular entrepreneur whose father helped organize Merchants Bank in 1902 and served as the bank's first president.
Fillauer passed away in 1959 and had no children. The Packard was then acquired by his nephew, W.K. "Bill" Fillauer, a Cleveland, Tennessee mayor from 1959 to 1966. Bill eventually sold the Packard to Cleveland, Tennessee resident Phil Newman in the late 1960s. Fillauer passed away in 2000. Newman drove the Packard less than 500 miles and kept it safely tucked away in a garage. The Packard changed hands again when Newman sold the luxury automobile in 2009 to Cleveland automobile restoration expert Ron Bird, who also kept it in storage. Bird had no plans to sell the Packard until he was approached by the current owner, who said he wanted to have the car completely restored so that it could appear in the city's annual Christmas parade. Jones asked Bird and his team of experts to perform the restoration due to Bird's extensive knowledge of history and antique automobiles. The entire restoration took place in Cleveland, Tennessee.
This beautiful automobile would be perfect for a period drama, comedy or advertising campaign. Just click Get Quote or call (423) 479-5353 today.
