My 55 400 came with nice plate surrounds which read ''Central Valley Packard'' and ''Ask the man who owns one''


That licence plate frame can't be original to your 55. The licence plates that were issued in 1955 would not have been able to fit in the frames you pictured. The 55 plate was a 51 plate with an added corner plate saying 55 that covered up the year 51 embossed on the plate. The 51 through 55 plates were wider than the one you show. The plate you picture wasn't issued until 1963 when all the yellow plates with the black numbers and letters were replaced.
