There was a thread earlier this year and suggestions were made that several countries had 12v requirements many years before US. In the service manuals there are other electrical items for 12v besides the coil, OD solenoids, starters, etc etc. Think the conclusions were that those items were probably for export vehicles.

Had Nance assembled his advisers or key men and really developed any firm plans that early? I seem to recall reading that there were still a lot of the long time Packard people in various management capacities who saw little need for change. The first year or so was spent trying to ease them out with pensions and whatever they called management pink slips before there were golden parachutes. GM buying the place in 53 might have happened before anything could be considered.

Would sure like to see some pictures of the install location and how it mounts. Wonder if that is the real BTV or GM's version of it.

For all of you going, may be weather be nice, the rain begone and the crowds be mellow. From pictures of previous year crowds & this mornings weather map, none look likely.

The oven cleaner is an excellent suggestion but I think it is lye based. Would take a little extra care if using around anything that might be aluminum or pot metal so nothing is damaged.

Of questionable importance today, but the suffix B indicates that the clutch assy was changed during production. B is a complete Borg & Beck unit rather than B&B plate only (suffix A) used after first revision. It is of different brand than the original unit listed in specs when production started (no suffix).

Believe the part you are asking about is listed under 11.0045 cradle group and is the cushions, upper to frame--part number 422328 and lower 437004. Steele lists that part for body cushion and also used for radiator cradle.

I never checked them out as to thickness but at my local Napa they had a row of fuel pump gaskets of varying sizes and styles. Wonder if your local parts store might have something thicker that would work.

Unless the ABS website is out of date, they have 3 different Clipper kits. Surely one would be correct for stock wheels.
