HH,
I discovered RPM Engineering in an article they did for Street Rodder magazine, December 2008, in which they built a kit for 1960 Caddy. I called them and spoke to Ron Metcalf about fabbing up a kit for the junior Packard. I needed a spindle from a 56 junior and remembered that Kev told me about Dan Yocum who has some parts cars. Dan agreed to loan me a spindle for this project. At the time Dan was not able to remove the part himself so I, being a member of N.S.R.A., remembered that we have a members book called "Fellow Pages", which are individuals across the USA that agree to help out any rodders in distress in their area. I located someone in same community as Dan and he agreed to remove and ship part for Dan and me to RPM. Ron stated that he already had built a kit for a 54 Packard which was the large hub which I believe is a senior. Following is contact info for RPM.
RPM Engineering-Ron Metcalf-22400 Lamel Rd, Sky Valley, CA 92241 Ph-760-329-1886
I couldn't have done this without fine people like Kev, Dan,
Richard(Fellow Pages) and Ron.

ps:I will update after trip.
