Re: 55 Packard Caribbean double reinforcement

As Owen suggests it is probably the Caribbean convertible reinforcement that you are looking at. There is also a stiffening channel that is located just inside the rocker panels and for that reason the body struts do not come straight out from the frame, but drop down to accomodate the channels. The X-member is also reinforced, top and bottom, with plate steel.
