The Packard Motor Car Company, known for quality, innovative engineering, and advanced styling, introduced the Ninth Series Packards in December 1931.

At the top of the Ninth Series lineup was the Dietrich Individual Custom line. Built lavishly and in small numbers, they were set apart by their now legendary dual-pane, V-windshields and are considered to be the masterpieces of Dietrich Inc.

This particular 1932 Packard 904 Deluxe Eight Individual Custom Stationary Coupe is one of only two surviving vehicles carrying the Dietrich body design number 2068, built to the specifications of the Deluxe Eight.
