The 1953 Packard Balboa was a hardtop based off of the [[Packard Caribbean]]. The main point of interest on the car was the canopy-style C-pillar that held a nearly vertical rear window. The Caribbean never recieved a hardtop like the Balboa's in 1953, but it did recieve a normal hardtop in 1956. The [[Packard Predictor]] also featured a C-pillar that was similar to the one on the Balboa.
