It seems that most newer folks to the hobby rely on the national Packard vendors and eBay for parts sourcing and generally don't do flea markets...(snip)
Dave,
Are you referring to restoration and mechanical tools in general (like the mics you pictured) or Packard parts specifically?
WRT Packard parts, another viable source are guys who have a LOT of "parts cars", a few of which are sort of "commercial vendors", but most are not. Even though I have several Packard parts cars, other parts car owners have been a good source for me in the past if my parts cars did not have the required piece either because of prior removal or wrong model. Also, me removing and selling parts off them works too. This process never sees EBay or a swap meet.
