Re: 1948 Production Date

Engine cast date will give you a rough approximation of the production date, but just a rough one (earl, mid, late).

How close are the Briggs body number and the vehicle number on the patent plate?

I guess the dealer did not stamp his name and delivery date on the patent plate.

Early 22nd series cars had the bumper center sections and headlight trim rings painted body color.

Any clues in Robert Neal's book?

We all would like to know all the history of our Packards, but this is rarely available. I am lucky that I can trace the ownership of my 1955 Clipper back to the delivering dealer and first owner.
