Welcome to the world of Packards. There are many parts vendors for the 51 to 54 models. Many good direction so far. I can definitely understand the limited budget, especially in these times. The good news is there are lots of private individuals who collect and trade / sell parts. Many of them are here on PackardInfo. I strongly suggest learning about the car, what the car needs and easing into buying items. This gives you time to learn, and forge relations with people who have the parts you are looking for.

You will really enjoy this car, people are often surprised to see a Packard on the road, and have many questions about your unusual marquee.

I hope you consider starting a project thread; I enjoy seeing progress of projects.

Best of luck,
Jim
