I think that would make a neat article for the website if someone choose to put together a visual reference of the different hubcaps (full and dogdish) for the various years. Also a wire wheels, artillery wheels, disc wheels, etc. (HINT HINT any of you resourceful Packard history experts).

Also a visual Hood Ornament reference would be good also as I have seen that question come up here and there.

I was also thinking today (while stuck in traffic on my drive home) it would be nice if some folks would document the rebuilding of anything Packard related as an article and have a library of those articles here. Basically along the lines of the Fuel Pump rebuild, and the Paper Filter conversion. Some of the basic things like servicing the brakes and repacking the wheel bearings, while obvious to some of us, may make for a usefull article for someone learning.

I have heard from a few of you wishing that they could help out with the website, but didnt have any original Packard material to donate, but this type of "How-To" content would be just as valuable.

Hopefully this is something we can explore and expand on this year. As I think it would really benifit everyone.
