The low-slung and sporty profile of the Miller Packard V12; arguably one of Bohman & Son’s best efforts.
Bill Miller was a genius. You hear this term used a lot, but Bill was exactly that. He could paint like a renaissance master, was fully adept at technical drafting, had owned and operated a world class Southern California machine shop, and was known for solving mechanical problems that teams of engineers struggled to understand. He had substantial business acumen, owned a number of nightclubs in Los Angeles in the 1960s, and campaigned his own hand-built racecars to regional victory circles. With ample cash and discerning taste, Miller acquired several important vehicles over the years including two 12-cylinder Ferraris. But it was his creative spirit and intellectual prowess that led him to aspire to more than just owning sports cars. Bill was a risk taker, willing to gamble his money and eager to exercise his mastery of skills over a wide range of challenges. He wanted more than just a few sports cars; he wanted to build his own automobiles.
