Re: 5587 - Insufficient Leg Room

In those days front seats could be adjusted by the dealer to fit various customers' needs.

If you take the seat out you should see where the base can be taken apart and bolted back together to get more or less leg room, it can be tilted with shims, they could even insert extra springs for heavier drivers.

Yours may have originally been owned by someone on the short side. Packards were not known for being cramped for room.
