Packard Engineering Drawings for Parts

Those of you who are members of PAC will take note of the announcement in The Cormorant News Bulletin, February 2013, that copies are now available of over 35,000 original Packard blue prints dating back to the Warren years. I've been awaiting this announcement for some time and wish to publicly commend the two gentlemen involved, both of whom I know well and who wish to remain anonymous, for making the decision to purchase and then donate this material to the hobby thru The Packard Motor Car Foundation (the Packard Proving Grounds) rather than retain them for personal gain. We owe them a considerable debt of gratitude and this will become a wonderful source of original material to restorers, historians and Packard owners in general. Additionally it should provide an income stream to the Packard Motor Car Foundation to support what is the only significant Packard corporate property in the hands of the hobby and worthy of our generous support. Well done, gentlemen!
