Re: Support bar behind the Radiator

To answer your original question, my 1950 Deluxe 8 has the piece you are referring to. If you are wanting to remove the radiator, you don't have to remove the piece. The inlet and outlet will clear that piece. It is tight, but will clear, If you feel like it has to come out anyway, I have been told by other Packard folks that they cut the piece on the right side with a hacksaw, then when they are going back together with it, put a piece of strap iron behind it and drill, then put two screws in it to hold it in place. It is barely noticeable when completed.
Thanks,
Mike
