Re: 38 Packard Clock - Need Pics

Guys, there are two points I'd like to share:

First, Is the Packard a jr. or sr? I think the cosmetics are different. I know the 38 juniors have clear discs that serve as the hour and minute hands, each with a nice painted matal ring with a pointer on the outter circumference of the disc. Not sure about the seniors, or whether the guts are interchangable.

Second, I believe Packard began using Borg clocks in 39. I purchased a 38 jr. parts clock thinking it was the same internals as my 39 junior. However, this was not the case. I believe the 38 was a Jaeger, not completely sure.

The Borg clocks share many parts across Packard years as well as with many other car companies. Easy to clean, oil, adjust and to service the electrical contact points.
