Okay here is some more information on what was offered in the 1937 line as to what can or can't be a CD car. I am restoring a 1095 Sport Coupe as a CD. I did research as to what was offered, as the coupe was not a CD originally. The Packard Company was one of the few US automakers that would do more customization to what the customer wanted. So here is the Packard Company printed in their 120C owners manual and it was also printed in the 1937 Shop manual. Any 120C model has documentation for in the CD package.(CD was just options added to your car) All the way from the Business Coupe all the way to the extended frame 37's can be had with the CD package. The parts that made up the package did vary within the model. The Business Coupe would surely not have the Rear Seat Ash receivers for example. On the other side if a person says their CD did not have sidemounts, they could be very correct in saying so. Even in the 138CD's some did not have sidemounts. (Also please note in the manuals the designation for a CD car was a "D". My 138CD 1090 does not have anything that says it's a CD but as we know all 138's are CD's.
