1936 Packard Boattail

from Colin Roswell Washburn,  in the Sierra foothills: "I've spotted this incredibly cool car a few times around Sonora. Finally saw it up close and got a few pics. The unmistakable PACKARD hubcaps told me what it was, and, according to my Google research, it seems to be an aptly named BOATTAIL ! It's dark grey, body straight and clean, a convertible, and a woman with lovely dirty-blonde hair is always at the wheel."
