I like the leaner, more aggressive look of the Auburn; but both are beautiful cars.

@jack-dodds 

I surprised myself and voted Auburn for the same reason.


Retired in Dunedin, Florida.

Great photos of a couple great cars of that era.  I voted "no interest" though, as they are outside my collecting criteria. 

From that early era, my eyes only see stagecoaches with motors instead of horses powering them.  Sorry.

The Packard has a 1920s roof style that is open and very wide - like a canopy rather than fitted roof - and whilst this is old fashioned for 1934, I do really love these breezy phaetons.

"Sorry" ? ? ?  These are my favourite cars.

I vote Packard fir it's quality even though these two examples are different types of cars IMO.

Not that I am a fan of either.  But I think the Packard is the nicer looking.

Two outstanding 1934 classics that make a statement. Got to call it a tie.

Two great classics but I give a slight edge to the Packard. Nice choice here John. Both are wonderful cars.
