Ronald -- John Ulrich, Ulrich Packard Parts in Richmond/Oakland, CA (the San Francisco Bay Area) has long owned a splendid '32 Light Eight Roadster (pictured on his below website) and knows these cars inside and out. John is also a good source for any and all parts for same. So contact him and please tell this worthy that Mike, '47 Super Clipper, Walnut Creek referred you. John specializes in 1928-47 parts.
https://julrichpackard.com/ BTW, your description of your lovely coupe on the Vehicle Registry here sounds almost apologetic for your well done survivor "not being in the usual happy colors." Stuff and nonsense. Your Light Eight is both elegant and jaunty in its refreshingly understated color scheme, and all the more sporting --an international mien -- wearing her simple black pumps.
Here in the States, we see more Packards, and vintage cars in general, ruined by circus wagon colors, white wall tires,and too many bolt-on options, which most Packard owners in the day considered gauche.
A quietly arresting car, yours. Bravo. By all means, get a copy of
The Hemmings Motor News Book of PACKARDS. It contains a terrific, detailed article about the '32 Light Coupe by the most knowledgeable, erudite Michael Lamm, founder and first editor of the much missed
Special Interest Autos. You should be able to find a copy online or by calling Hemmings at (800) 227-4373, www.hemmings.com
