Re: Very Early Packards & Chain Drive

Nearly all of the original owners of the Warren-built Packards are known from surviving records. The only one I know of that's listed as being sold outside the U.S. was 1903 Model F (engine F251) which was sold in Montreal PQ.
Here's an illustration which better shows the chain and sprocket system of the Model C.
The most up-to-date information on these early cars can be found in the 2006 Terry Martin book "Packard - the Warren Years"; this book adds to and corrects some of the information in the Kimes-edited book based on some George Weiss documents that came to light after the Kimes work was published.
