Does anyone know if the Packard engineering number appears anywhere on a vehicle? Specifically, on a 55 Clipper? The title I have shows an ID number of 5562-22-7734, which according to the orig 1955 bill of sale is an Engineering number. The door tag and engine both show just 5562-7734, paint code is GB & trim is 43, so neither match the "22". Bureau of motor vehicles doesn't want to issue a title since numbers don't match
HELP!

On my previous Packard, a 53 Clipper, I had similar issues. When I bought the car, the tank was full of rust and any fuel filter I installed plugged up within a few miles of operation. Kanter no longer offers replacement tanks, so I went the Renu route. Found a dealer and visited their facility. Turns out this place also rebuilds large truck radiators, so I figured they had the tools & expertise to work on gas tanks. The cost was about equal to a new tank. They sandblasted it in & out and applied their sealer in & out. (Lifetime warranty) I had to install a new guage sender unit since the old one was shot. I had to solder a ground wire to the sender unit since the tank no longer had a good ground when covered in sealant. No more stalling problems & gas guage worked fine! I would recommend Gas Tank Renu.

Does anyone know the Bendix part numbers, and a source, for the e-brake hardware internal to the rear drum? Specifically the vertical lever, horizontal bar, springs, and clips? They are missing, on both sides, from the 53 Clipper I recently purchased. The same parts were probably used for several years and across several models. Thanks in advance.
