An interesting Packard. It got its name from the fact that at one time it was painted brown. Unfortunately we don't know just what brown, or for that matter which version had the color. You see, the car was modified several times over its life. No color pictures of the car are known - all were black & white. It began life in 1941 and survived to about 1948 or 1949. Anyone have an earlier version picture? Between 1941 and 1944?
