A big piece of presidential motoring history will cross the block during Worldwide Auctioneers’ Auburn Auction during Labor Day Weekend.

A 1927 Packard Dual Windshield Phaeton that Franklin D. Roosevelt used on presidential tours — especially to visit Work Progress Administration job sites — will sell at no reserve during the the sale in Auburn, IN from September 1-3, 2022.

The Packard carries an older restoration, and the car still has the gun holsters in the doors for Roosevelt’s Secret Service security detail.

Worldwide is also offering a 2016 BMW M4 GTS with less than 500 miles on the clock.

This car is one of 830 made, and it is fitted with a twin-turbo inline 6-cylinder engine.

A 1966 Cadillac Eldorado convertible will also cross the block. Just 2,250 of these smooth-riding behemoths were built.
