Mal, .. of course … the Internet and PI is for us Packard car freaks the most helpful way ever. Without this .. I never could finish my 1924 Sport restauration to a nearly 100% original condition. And without friends like DavidMc and Pat from “Bills Speedometershop” helpful Informations and parts search and parts shipping organization it would be impossible to restore a Packard over here in Germany into this condition I work on. I hoped the Car is painted till July this year because I believed that the Fenders and the Running boards are in paintable condition after I removed them 3 years ago. But …. now after a closer inspection …. all Fenders has nearly a ¼ inch thick plastic putty on it. And after I removed this there was a lot of holes every where closed with fiberglass. On the rear Fender the whole surface was … patchwork .. but overall .. inside and outside they was great sanded and painted. The Runnigboards was made on the same way and after stripping .. they was just scrap. So … there is no paint the car this year because I have to fix the fender problems. After this .. West Peterson .. I `ll post some pics from the car. I hope to finish the restauration in the middle of next year.
