The recommended tire pressures by Packard were based on the tires used at the time. Your American Classic tires are different than those used when the car was new. I would use recommended tire pressures from American Classics. I would guess that 30-32 lbs would be about right.

I used the rear main bearing gallery tap for an auxillary pressure gauge on my 47 Custom Clipper. Easy connection and mostly out of sight. As Howard wrote, be careful removing the plug. JWL
