As I recall it was a less painful option than iodine. At least that's how my mom sold it to me.

Just thought of another one. When my kids were little they used to watch a cartoon on Nickelodeon called Hey Arnold. Arnold's grandfather drove a 1947 Packard Clipper. Complete with cormorant hood ornament.

Pat,

Very well put. More power to you !

Kevin,

Were you there when he fired up the beast?

1946 movie The Big Sleep with Bogie and Bacall. Two scenes with a 1936 senior sedan. First one speeding away from a murder scene. Next being fished out of the water after driver "drove it" off the pier.

Another is Out of the Past with Robert Mitchum. There's a 41-42 Clipper that the bad guys are driving.

Last one tonight: TV mini series The Last Convertible. I think on ABC around 1980/81. College kids driving around in a 1938 senior four door convertible on the eve of WWII. Can't remember if it was a Twelve or Super 8.

Thanks Dave. You're right, I did a quick skim and missed that point.

I see from HH56 psot that these were used on the 16th series juniors (1600 and 1601). Were they also used on the 15th series 120C ?

Thanks for the link Roman. Thought you might like this one..

Roman,

Yes I go to the Oakbrook father's day show. I try to drive my car there but I haven't entered it in the show.

BTW: You don't have to own a Packard to be a member of POC. All you have to have is a love for the vehicle. I invite you to attend some of the meetings and events. Meetings are usually in Des Plaines. Ask your buddy with the Patrician also.

We have the same taste. I have been lusting for a Twelve forever. I'd like a 1937 club sedan or formal sedan. If you see one at a reasonable price let me know
