It's obvious that S-P was still producing parts for Detroit-built Packards.
Ordering wear parts from vendors for stock, yes. Producing engines and body parts in house, no.

Yes, but that would have made a demand for transmissions, clutch linkages etc to complete any conversion from T'Ultra to stick.


Transmissions came from Borg-Warner and GH clutch linkages came from Studebaker. The only Packard V8-specific cast part was the bellhousing and flywheel.
