West, The 1935-37 junior Packards (120s and 115C) did not have thermostatically controlled grille louvers, but rather a conventional thermostat in the outlet of the cylinder head. Then, the 1938-39 juniors had the thermostat controlled louvers with the option to install a second thermostat in the cylinder head outlet housing for severe cold weather driving. The Clippers, as you say, had the conventional thermostat in the cylinder head outlet. Not sure about the 1940-42 conventional bodied Packards.
