Re: AACA Eastern Fall Meet – Hershey Region 2023 (AKA Hershey)

Looking forward to seeing you at the SAH Book Signing on Tuesday. I will be picking up your new book on A/C.

I will be there as well with my two-volume biography on James J Nance. And, at the PAC tent on Wednesday through Friday (GAD-28 -- look for the yellow Packard Balloon) there will be a book signing as well. Along with my books, the new 70th Anniversary book on the history of the Packard Club (1953-2023) will be available, signed by the authors, Paul Delaney and Craig Handley.

1949 would be pre-Nance.

Yes, there should be a dedicated inline fuse before the clock. It's to prevent a meltdown in the event the points on the winding mechanism stick.

Clock - 1939 Six

I am in the process of completing some work on my clock and need to put it back in soon. It was partially unhooked when I got it and there were some loose fuses near. Were these placed in-line before to protect the clock or am I making some errant assumptions? If anyone has pics to help that would be appreciated. Thanks.

Another surprising statement said that before buying the Hydramatic Lincoln first tried to buy the Ultramatic for use in the big Lincoln Cosmo models but was turned down because Packard could not supply enough to meet expected demand. If it actually happened, I suspect more than supply availability, it might have also had something to do with wanting the Ultra to stay exclusive for a year or two.


I have never heard this before, and as desperately as Nance was scrambling about for revenue streams, I'm inclined to doubt this tidbit. I think he would have happily pimped out his transmissions.

If you're not having fun, maybe it's your own damned fault.

Hi

I'll be driving down from Western New York either Tuesday or Wednesday dependent upon weather forecasts. Hoping the streak of good weather continues this year. I should be swinging by the PAC tent at various times. PM me if you'd like to put a face with the name...

A decent looking 1951 300 driver condition:

I guess most of the former CL posting for Packards have migrated to Fb Marketplace.

Fuel Filter Ceramic Element Clogging
Just popping in

Out Islander
Although there may be no sediment in the glass bowl or on the surface of a ceramic fuel filter element, the element can be invisibly clogged by a long-term buildup of varnish in the pores from the flow of gasoline. This clogging will act to starve gasoline supply to the carburetor, especially at higher speeds. Halfway through the attached discussion is an excellent primer on cleaning and backflushing a ceramic fuel filter element to restore its permeability and effectiveness.

Since no one else seems to want it, I'll take it for possible future use.

If no one pops on this. I'd raise the price back up and put it on eBay. Wider audience.
