Re: 23rd Eight Touring Sedan latch part

It looks broken off. If it is located on or inside the latch assembly itself -- the large mechanism that bolts to the door edge -- I don't believe any individual parts were available from Packard -- just complete assemblies. Max carries those, probably Kanter too.

There are some repair kits other mfgs made available for the outside toothed wheel part. Some of those kits fit that era Packards but don't believe they consist of anything more than the toothed wheel and a wheel retainer.

If the broken piece is located on the door somewhere besides the actual latch then a picture just where it was mounted would be a great help in seeing what it might be and if there is a replacement.
