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=22902forumpost220931 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." https://www.goodingco.com/vehicle/1940-packard-one-sixty-super-8-station-wagon/

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.

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
