To All Who Enjoy This Fourm:

It's sad to see things degenerate to such a point that the other thread had to be locked. While I never asked BigKev to lock the thread, it clearly became necessary. The guy had the chance to be civil, but just kept provoking people, which was really no surprise to me. However, rather than delete the thread like some tea parlour types would have done elsewhere, the thread will stand as it is so others will see what some people are all about. This packprince fella didn't make a good first impression on me with his posts.

Of course, we've run into this kinda schitt in other forums. For one example, a few years back, someone offered reprints of information that was NOT available from ANY Packard club, but a few too many people jerked that seller around until he withdrew his offer. That stuff happens offline, too, and I am not surprised that there are private individuals sitting on some great stuff that the public may never see.

Thankfully, some of these people have stepped up and donated scans of original info to this site, but I think we've only seen the tip of the iceberg. Of course, not everyone can donate in the same way, but anyone who comes here brings something to the table that can make this the single BEST site for Packard owners around the world.
