1953 Packard Mayfair Hardtop Coupe � 327ci Flat 8 (180hp), Auto, Signal Seeking AM Radio, Power Antenna, Recent Tune Up, Orchard Green, 15? Wire Wheel Covers, Coker White Walls, 1 of only 5,150 Produced! 1953 Packard Mayfair Hardtop Coupe � The 1951-1953 Packard Mayfair was the Packard auto company�s offering in the quickly growing hardtop market of the immediate postwar era. Along with the all-steel station wagon, hardtop designs grabbed upwards of a third of domestic output by mid-decade. The hardtop stole the show with its pizzazz, however, causing automakers to jump on the bandwagon. Some hardtops looked like deft, ground-up designs; others looked like what they were: two-door sedans with hastily contrived pillarless side windows. The 1951-1953 Packard Mayfair was among the later arrivals, and product-wise wasn�t truly satisfactory because of compromises. Packard built it on the junior short-wheelbase chassis, and attempted to sell it (and the concurrent convertible) as a prestige line. Thus it came with a �250� designation, senior-style grille teeth, 327-cid engine, full wheel covers, and pelican hood ornament. None of this disguised the fact that at $3,200 to $3,400, the Packard Mayfair competed more with Buick, Chrysler, and Mercury than with Cadillac, Imperial, and Lincoln. It thus failed to buck up Packard�s sagging luxury image, and added little to sales of middle-priced Packards. None of which meant the 1951-1953 Packard Mayfair wasn�t a very nice car in its own right. All of the above deluxe components combined with the pillarless windowline did make for a sporty, upmarket Packard. �Mayfair� seemed an appropriate name, too, conjuring up images of a fashionable district in London, or a famous London coachbuilder. And the smoothly integrated styling avoided the �cobbled� look of such hastily contrived rivals as the Hudson Hollywood and DeSoto Sportsman.
