Re: Packard shopping: Reyman

Thanks for the suggestion Ross, I picked up some "slow acting" (AKA the safe kind) oven cleaner and we will see how it goes.

For the reynolds wrap I'll need 1/8" black pinstripe. Seeing if I can get some in bulk as I'll need like 300 ft.

I talked with "point" on here and he has most of the trim I need at an affordable price so I'll stop by there hopefully a couple weeks from now and pick it up.

I went searching more thru the garage that this car was stored in and found more parts in the trunk of Reyman's 56 Patrician. I didn't search there previously because I assumed there was only 56 parts and it was quite rats-nested in places. Importantly I found a trunk emblem (I believe to have come off of his other 400, replaced with NOS), some better front turn signal lenses, and lettering without the studs broken off, among other odds and ends. Reyman's other 55 400 was completely sorted long ago so of what I find, I can use what I need to complete my car (aesthetic parts).

Photos:
- A literal rat's nest in a parts box. Believe it or not there ended up being 10 bags of parts in that nest pictured.
- A LOT of lettering...
