The grille and fenders (NOT bumper) are attached to each other and the frame. If you have 2 friends you can unscrew only about 20 screws and remove the whole thing. Radiator and its support need disconnected or removed first.

Remove the driveshaft.

Then loosen the two engine mounts and single transmission mount. Lift 'er on out

You will need to remove the hood but do that LAST. Literally right before you pull the engine. Don't close the hood with no support for it to rest on.https://packardinfo.com/xoops/html/modules/partslist/viewplate.php?cat=22&PlateNumber=58&partslist=1948-1954
