49 Custom Eight Convertable Hydraulic System

Posted by keithautoworks On 2009/6/30 14:05:32

I work for a body shop/repair facility and have recently taken on the job of partially restoring a 49 custom eight convertable. The job was started by someone else, and is disassembled, all except the motor and trans, which are completed and installed on the frame. The body is nearly ready for paint, and I need information on locations and mountings of items in the engine compartment, especially the hydraulic pump for the top/windows/seat system. I also need a COMPLETE diagram of reassemly of the pump, as it is completely (and I mean completely) disassembled! Anyone have underhood photos of a convertable from this time era? Any help is greatly appreciated, as I have no Packard experience! Thanks! Keith
