Re: Packard-built Custom Car Records

I am wondering how closely those cars were tracked back in the day and how they identified rebodied cars done by a dealer. Would they have considered even a speedster that much of a special car then?
Several of the early 30s service letters have small almost like ad articles saying such and such a dealer had a body for sale. Here is one from 1933. Any dealer that might have a customer wanting something different or needing a new body could contact the selling dealer and make arrangements. I would imagine the factory might not know or data plates might not get tracked in those instances.
