For that year Packard the fuel level and oil pressure gauges will rest in the low position with the car shut-off. The coolant temperature gauge is opposite in that it will rest on the high position with the car shut-off. Search for “King Seeley” in the forums for all of the mysteries and details of those gauges. Your condition may simply be a modern coolant temperature sending unit has been installed. There have been some recent forum discussions on the use of sending units from 40’s Ford products.
