| CRANKSHAFT HONING MACHINE - 2777-A

The usual method of finishing a crankshaft bearing is to use a hand lap while the
shaft is rotating in a lathe. In the Packard factory the idea illustrated in this
picture was originated to hone to size and to correct out-of-roundness and taper
on Packard crankshafts - again to insure and assure your customer's investment.
Packard has about $60,000 invested in a sufficient quantity of these machines to
keep up with present-day production. Time saved by machine over old hand method
approximately 40 minutes per unit.

Hope you enjoy this photo from the Richard A. Teague Collection courtesy of Dwight Heinmuller and recently reprinted by the Eastern Packard Club (CT). Shown are Dick Teague, Chief Stylist, and Bill Graves, Vice President, Engineering, presenting an award to a 1940 Darrin during the Classic Car Club of America's visit to Packard in 1953.
What a thrill it must have been to visit Packard when they were a lively, enthusiastic going concern, meet the various officers, lunch in the executive dining room, and take a lap or two at speed on the test track. Alas I was too young, without a Packard, a driver's license, any money, and the ability do to much of anything about any of them. |

| AUXILIARY OlLING FOR CYLINDER WALLS AND PISTONS - 380-E

This illustration outlines the oil flood valve and piping that provide -the extra
lubrication for the cylinder and piston surfaces while your Packard motor is warming
up. This device accomplishes automatically with the pulling of the choke-rod
further pocketbook insurance for Packard owners. With any motor at rest, the
cylinder walls and piston surfaces have a tendency to become dry. Then, with
the rich mixture, necessarily used in starting, this dryness is aggravated by the
presence of unburned fuel. The warming up period is no longer a period of destruction
to Packard owners, due again to the simplicity and excellence in design of
this capable oil flood valve. It reduces cold motor cylinder wear to the minimum.

Packard cars are built in one of the largest, most modern and complete manufacturing
plants in the entire automobile industry. It is a full mile in length from
the storage buildings and huge body shop in the foreground to the forge and
foundry buildings indicated by three clouds of escaping steam. In the center, at
the right of the power plant is the service building where spare parts for all
model Packards, past and present, are produced and stocked. Back of this great
factory are assets of more -^han $50,000,000 devoted exclusively to the making and
servicing of Packard products. This extremely modern factory affords a pleasant
working place of more than 70 acres of floor space for the thousands of men who
convert raw materials into Packard cars, airplane and marine motors, as well as
parts for all Packard products, made during our 29 years of excellent manufacture.
