There are other items which might be Packard related - albeit for earlier models in Dad's family in the decades before this one. I found these spare parts in the basement or in the trunk of the Patrician

* dash clocks & hood ornament est. 40's era (already went to family)

* Delco Radio (available- images attached)

* filter (available- image attached)

* two glass jar things / I wonder if they might be lamps (available- bad images attached, better available in next day or two)

Could anybody comment - do these look identifiable, remarkably interesting or unusual?



Hello...

The glass jars in the metal bracket holders are merely reservoirs for windshield washer fluid.

On a 1956 Patrician they would have been located in the engine compartment either on:
• Right-hand fender splash well for cars equipped with factory air and/or pushbutton transmission

• Left-hand fender splash well if not equipped with either pushbutton transmission or factory air conditioning.


Thanks Leedy -
As you suggested - we found a windshield fluid jar installed on the Right-hand fender splash.
