Re: Packard Agencies from Arizona: ...First and most prominent was Bowyer Motors of Tucson, Arizona ... Interestingly enough, the first Packard agency in Arizona was Bowyer Motors of Tucson in 1926. Phoenix, our state capital, 120 miles to the north didn't get an agency until 1929. Packard executives from East Grand made Shadwell Bowyer 'relocate' to the north. Shadwell was quite the interesting fellow & a native of Great Britain, until he moved to the great southwest as a cowboy and ranch-hand in the early 1900's to Oracle, Arizona.
