I believe Jerome Hardy was the founder of and is still the Director of The Packard Automobile Club de France. I've met Jerome a few times, just recently here in NJ for lunch. I'm sure he can be helpful or steer you to others in France who can help, though as I browse the cars listed as owned by members of the French club, I see none that take the same battery as your car calls for. Even so, it should still be very worthwhile to make contact.

Info on the Normandy meet can be found atpackardclub.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=826

PS - As I look further in the PAC directory I see quite a few Packards in Europe that do use the same battery as your car calls for, so if you have no luck with the French members, you might make contact with some of these other members; look at the car ownership info for Germany, Sweden, Finland, Norway, Switzerland, Luxembourg, & Austria, all of which have cars that utilize the Group 2E battery. I'd guess one or more of them has source information. And if you locate a source, let us know so the next person coming along won't have to do the same research.
