Re: Coat Hooks in 50 Packard Deluxe

Problem with a measurement from another car is the hooks were optional and could be installed by dealers. While there undoubtedly was a template or suggestion for location it was not carved in stone and don't believe there were factory provisions made for the attachment. If your hooks were fastened by sheetmetal screws, the hooks or template was just held in an approximate place while the holes were marked so the inner panel could be drilled for the screws. Finding those exact holes to reuse them again may be difficult.
