If thats a Running Dog thats one hell of an ugly Running Dog. You have to wonder if McCauley was having a little fun. Bet hes looking down on us and laughing his ass off.

Believe there is NO mention of a 160 SW in any PACKARD Lit.
BUT NEVER SAY NEVER

Interesting this Trade Letter
https://packardinfo.com/xoops/html/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?post_id=220931&topic_id=22902&#forumpost220931
ref to the 110 and 120 SW but nothing about a 160
BUT NEVER SAY NEVER

GOODING AUCTION
"Please note that further research indicates that at Bill Harrah's request, a genuine Hercules Station Wagon was fitted to this Packard 160 Chassis."

Re: Head Studs

Suggestions all good. Little trick ive pick up over the years is to give rusted nuts/bolts/studs a slight clockwise turn before the counter.

Head studs have interference fit. Even if factory fresh their going to come out hard.

https://www.machinedesign.com/fastening-joining/article/21812743/studs

Pretty sure reasonings are
-Nuts would break loose first
-Factory could drive the Studs to the height they required
-Some studs go into water champers and the interference would help seal.

SO WHAT IS THE BIG ONE ??????????
Hood Side seems to have 2 bump outs that im guessing r 4 Carb clearance.

Pontoon fender- tear drop HL - top stays above the body when folded down - side of the hood has something coming out/attached - rear mount is almost vertical

Its amazing they captured this car going down the road. Betting if we can find it, its a BOS at Pebble.

Anybody else pickup on the 2 Sports Cars, rolling down the street,in the lower RH corner of this photo on the web site

https://packardinfo.com/xoops/html/uploads/photos/13421.jpg

A. Mercedes - MG ?
B. Long hood, pontoon fendered. SSK ?

UPDATE 3/25/20
If u go to the Britain from Above web site u can Zoom In and get a much better view of the cars.

A. Does look like an MG
B. Pontoon fender- tear drop HL - top stays about the body when folded down - side of the hood has something coming out/attached - rear mount is almost vertical.

AND u can see the 1935 PACKARDs on the show room floor - COOL
