Packard every time in this era. Both cars are notable.

I like the curves on the Caddy a bit more than the stately elegance of the Packard.

Tough choice for me, but decided for the more modern Cadillac.


Retired in Dunedin, Florida.

Packard, especially with that optional hood ornament (that was also a radio aerial).

Basically a tie for me here except the Packard colors are to die for IMO.

Both cars to me look basically the same, but since I won't vote a tie, I choose the Cadillac.  Being completely honest, neither car really tickles my fancy.

Both are amazing cars, tough choice. But for me the Cadillac is one of my favorite designs, so a slight edge to the Cadillac.

The Packard, by a nose. The grillwork on the Cadillac doesn't appeal to me.

Who knew?? David, thanks for bringing this to our attention and for the close-up pics.

 

BTW, the Packard gets my vote.
