Thanks so much for the articles, very interesting reading. How common are V8 Packards motors to find today, pretty rare? I forgot about Packard supplying V8s to Nash also. I have another question, I saw a 58 Packard at a Rat Rod car show in Dewey, OK recently, I was under the impression that the 58 Stude had single headlights and for the 58 Packard they grafted dual fiberglass headlights to make the cars different, but then I saw a 58 Stude, realized it had dual headlights too. I guess the grill was changed to make the cars look a little different? Thanks again for the info, I would love to order a Packard V8 t shirt, but they only come in xl, too small for me.
