More likely it was a Packard straight eight as Packard's from that era all
were equipped with "straight" block configurations, not a "V" block.

Subject: [Healeys] Nash Healey Packard
I ran across some Nash Healey trivia today in the August 2014 issue of
Hemmings Classic Car magazine.
The director of styling at Nash American Motors from 1950 to 1961 was Edmund
Anderson. He drove a Nash Healey with a Packard V8 in it. He apparently
terrorized the Detroit police with it. One time he expected the factory
security gate personel to stop the cops from chasing him, but they didn't
and they caught him in the executive garage. He tried to have the security
folks fired.
Is this car still around?
