1941 Packard 180 Convertible Victoria
The diecast car above was Packard's 1941 no car illustrated this better than the 180 Convertible Victoria. Each one of the 25 built was custom-made by legendary California designer Dutch Darrin. Typical of his designs, this gorgeous 180 features a long graceful hood, split and slanted windshield plus chrome speed lines on all fenders. Under the hood, all Packard 180's had a 356 cubic inch L-head Straight 8 that produced 160 horsepower. Sold originally for $4595, if you could find one today you'd have to be prepared to spend almost $200,000.
