Thanks JD, I didn't read that far. For those unfamiliar with Packard's shenanigans resulting from the poor sales of the Light Eight in 1932, the 32 Eight short wheelbase was 129-1/2, as was 1934. But the Light Eight was 127 and for 1933 in order to use up left over Light Eight sedan bodies for the base 5-pass sedan the wheelbase shrunk back to 127, same as the Light Eight had used the year before. Big clue is the shape of the rear quarter window.
