Thanks, Leeedy! Quite an interesting answer! And thank you very much for your kind comments on my car.

The car was a good one to start with, but I did all of the engine bay area again, but kept the rest mostly as it was. In fact, I got a lot of help from the forum:https://packardinfo.com/xoops/html/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?topic_id=5945&viewmode=compact&order=ASC&type=&mode=0&start=230

Perhaps all of the finishes are not all right. The paint may be lighter that the original. But that will have to remain as is now.

I am aware of "the anti-short extruded rubber shield over the regulator connections"... I just need to find it. Would you know of a source for that?

I didn't know that the cars that came in CKD or KD form to Mexico were sent via Earl C. Anthony. I would have guessed they were shipped directly from Detroit.

I didn't know either on the upcoming Creative Industries book. It will surely be in my wish list!

Thanks again!
