Thank you.

Any recommendations on who can repair my rearview mirror that has crazed?

I was trying to make my modern battery look like an original battery.

What color are the battery caps for the Auto-Lite or Willard batteries?

Thank you..

What original batteries were used by Packard in 1956 for the Caribbean?

I really appreciate the help. Since there are so few Packards in South Carolina, I feel like being on a deserted island when it comes to Packard repairs. The willingness to share knowledge makes this forum so great!!!

The paint on my 56 Carribean convertible trunk is starting to chip away. I was told that the paint is all original on the car. However, the body shop thinks that someone may have re-sprayed the trunk in the past. The body shop is in the process of sanding down my trunk lid to repaint it due to the paint flaking off. I've attached A photo of what the trunk looks like. It appears that Packard used the old red primer, painted the car blue, and then painted the Dover White over the blue paint. Is this normal for how Packards were painted at the factory?

Thanks

Scott

I have a 56 Caribbean with original paint. Unfortunately, the paint on the trunk is starting to crack and may falling off. I want to preserve the original paint and prevent it from falling off. Does anyone have any suggestions on what to do?

Scott.
