Re: Resurrecting a 1951 Henney-Packard Parts Car

It seems like Packard went to a lot of trouble for their shift linkage design. Others used single rods from steering column arms to transmission arms. Those transmissions had - I believe - side cover plates and not top cover plates like Packard. Does anyone know why Packard used its unique design? Was it to keep from redesigning the transmission case to relocate the cover plate to the side? Thanks in advance.
