Here's found this one in Craigslist, the title of ad is confusing "1940 Packard 120 Super Eight" written there. In generally known, between One-Twenty and Super Eight is a different model. The One-Twenty is first model of the Packard automobile to entered into the highly competitive mid-priced eight-cylinder car market at that time, while the Super Eight is simply the name given to the luxury models such as the One-Sixty and One-Eighty. All of them has powered by a Straight-eight engine and shared most mechanical components. All looks similar except the packaging and pricing.
