I wouldn't make that assumption too quickly, the 160 commercial cars with removeable sidepost also generally only carried one sidemount, right side. Of course your assumption is also possible. Just adds to the interest.

Very true.

I also noticed on that fender, the strips are missing, that are on all 3 of the other fenders. It just stuck out to me as odd.

The wheel chair is also very interesting. If you look carefully, it is made so the outer edge matches the contours of a standard car seat. So without the doors open, the top of the seat would look like a normal automotive bench seat.

I wonder what are in the doors in the backseat headliner areas?

Barrymore must have had money flowing, as he had 2 custom built Packard limousines made within 3 years of eachother.
