37-39 Packard Six had either Autolite or Delco ignition, you can tell by the tag on the distributor. Probably 95% were Delco which is different from 40-up which were all Autolite.

As for repro ignition parts are not up to snuff we find differently. While all of our points are NOS or NORS, in 50+ years we really have not gotten any returns after selling 20,000 sets. We do sell a mix of NOS, NORS and current condensers, caps and rotors in large quantity we have had practically zero returns for being defective. The use of a point file can produce perfectly fine operation but keeping a condenser indefinitely can leave you stranded on the road. Condensers deteriorate mostly from heat and while a 50 year old NOS condenser will give good service, one that has had 10,000 miles in high under hood temperatures may have a limited life. replacing it is cheap insurance
