Forgot to mention that the rumble seat lid will probably have to be off the car to see the stamped number on the edge. You cannot see it when the lid is closed and when the lid is open it will be facing the floor. Should be located on the edge near the center.

I am currently restoring a 900 coupe and came across number in both locations by accident. I was told that there were no numbers located anywhere on the car that corresponded to the firewall tag, so I was happy to come across them.

The highest number coupe I have seen is 558-492 delivered 6-2-32.

Th light eights are fantastic cars. A properly sorted light eight coupe will run circles around any other packard of 1932 besides the 1932 twin six roadster- and even then it would be a close race.

Currently looking for a front bumber and bumber bar for a light eight. Leads would be appreciated.
