49 Packard: If your 48 Custom 8 is a renumbered car, that is, a -9- or -5- in the VN, Robert Neal who is writing a book on the bathtub era Packards would love to have that info along with the Briggs body# (tag near the heater). And if you also had the original build slip (over the glove box) that would be a real plus!!! Neal has put his request on this website and in PAC's newsletters but if you can't find it, you could give the info to me to forward to him as I've been in contact with him concerning my 22nd and 23rd series Custom 8s.

Ditto to anyone else with a renumbered car.

The 22nd/23rd series, except perhaps for the Custom 8 series, have had their share of criticism over the years and I think a book dedicated to them would be very well received so it's in our best interests to see that the author has the best information he can gather.
