Re: 1934 shock links

Great day at the Grand Classic, just about 70 cars in perfect weather. Gaggles of Packards including several 34 Eights, Super Eights, and Twelves. Crawled under every one to look at shock links. 34 Super Eight and Twelve appear the same and identical to Tom's (34Packardroadster). Eights all the same as my car and Wade's chassis for the best picture. Showed Terry's pix to some of the experts who figure it is some sort or later adaptation, not Packard of any vintage.

The Vignale Packard was here, plus 1 734 boat tail, many outstanding Packards, Cadillacs, one Kissel, one Hudson by LeBaron, 4 or so Pierces, 2 Rollers, a Chrysler, and too many others to mention. Will post some pic when I return.

Sorry Terry, not obvious what your solution will be other than to try to return to the correct link if the shock arms haven't been modified to preclude that.
