Question: Were some export Packards equipped with 12-volt systems

Yes, though the ones I'm aware of were Senior cars in the late 1930s. Perhaps a search would help you with this, we've had a discussion on this previously. Here's some excerpts from the parts list for 1938 Seniors which I believe I got from BDC. Note the special 12-volt lighting equipment was for RHD cars - as you probably know up until the advent of sealed beams U.S.-origin headlamps were generally not accepted by most European countries. That's why export cars to Europe often show headlamps by Marchall, Zeiss, and others depending on the country of import.
