Re: 1934 Packard 1101 Coupe 2-4

For factory-bodied cars Packard's standard treatment for the 11th series cars was (1) chromium shell with painted shutters for the Eight, (2) chromium plated shell and shutters for the Super 8, and (3) painted shell and chromium shutters for the Twelve.
For extra cost ($25 IIRC) any combination could be had. Thus the car in question in this thread carries the shell/shutter treatment of a Twelve.
As to options and accessorizing, personally, I believe that for some sedans and especially in the very formal body styles, sidemounts often add a positive to the visual presentation of the vehicle. That said I'm generally not a fan of accessorizing though I have added a single, center-mounted driving light in European fashion to my 1100 to aid a bit in night driving.
