O_D all of the Ultramatic equipped Packards I have seen with non-power brakes have had the long side of the brake pedal oriented on the vertical. Have you ever seen a factory stock Packard with the brake pedal in the same orientation as the one in the illustration?

Yes, on a V8 Clipper, don't recall if 55 or 56. But with so many owners who fidget and "improve" things, perhaps it was not correct. With so little affection given to nicely preserved original cars, we're rapdily loosing our reference base.
