Thanks David & John !
Over the years, someone had "flocked" the glove compartment door and I did not see the tabs. Haven't banged my head against the wall for about a week, so ready to tackle the graining Any secrets in removing the dash?

Anyone know how to remove the glove box door chrome trim and dash chrome trim pieces form a 39 Packard 110? Getting ready to refinish these parts and strip and re-wood grain the dashboard. Haven't figured out if the chrome parts are glued on or ?

Great information, thanks. I was considering something similar, bronze bushings in the two cast pieces and then I saw somewhere shaft repair kits, Mcmaster I think. Just found NOS and ordered the two shift lever arms. I will post dis-assembly and progress.
Thanks John !

Thanks John, guess I will order the gasket set. Car did not have one when I pulled the head but not certain that was the first time it was pulled.
You do any work on the shift linkages? This one is pretty well worn out

Where can I find guideline of the type of hardware used (screws and nuts) on a 1939 Packard Six? I have started restoration of my late Dad's 39 Packard and under the hood I see a host of wrong vintage hardware. Some were by the previous owner, others I am certain by my Dad to keep the car running. I have spent hours searching on the web without success. Example, hardware holding voltage regulator to the firewall has round head slotted 8-32 screws. Was this a fillister head or large pan head, similar to what is found on electrical terminals.

After we had the valves redone on my 1939 Packard Six, the exhaust manifold has leaked. I have read many have sent the manifolds off to be resurfaced, some have put them on a belt sander but recently, I found an intake and exhaust gasket, reportedly OEM. Did this vehicle have intake and exhaust manifold gaskets?
