Could it be that Packard offered them as a 'retro fit' in 35 or 36 to update the look of the car?

Tom, I'm sure that's possible, Packard prided itself on going to special lengths to satisfy customers - that's part of what built their reputation. And they did lots of things that aren't documented as well. I'm glad to hear the shutters are body-color!

Edmond, Yes, Jay Fisher is still in business, I stopped by his space in Hershey this year. He does business by phone and mail. You'll have to call him (actually his wife usually answers) to see what he has available. Brace yourself with a stiff drink before you ask the price! You might also try Don Sommer (American Arrow Corp) who makes mirrors, mascots, and other misc. Packard hardware.
