I'm in for $137. Happy Thanksgiving, and I am thankful for this site, and all the guys who helped me to this point in my Packard journey!

When I met Bob W. and Flackmaster last year at Hershey, they educated my on Deitrich, when I told them I had the 1937 4 door convertible 120. Bob told me to look behind the passenger side spare tire, and then under the carpet on the passenger side front seat. I did, and in fact they were there. Don't know the answer to the questions on the thread, but can say these look to be original to the car.

Ask and you shall receive!!! Many thanks to Flackmaster to help coordinate with Bob W. I now have both spare tires covered!!

Will need a little love and care, but it is a perfect fit!

Had to buy a pair, so if anybody is looking for a cover, I've got it!

BigKev,
I used the donation button. $ for Blanket and some $ for the Site. I will pick it up in Hershey!

Cheers,
Ben

Great. Thanks for the info. and confirmation.

Hi. Looking to replace my battery. I see reference to the Redtop Optima and want to confirm this is the correct one. My current battery is the typical "rectangle" and this one looks more oblong. Most interested to ensure it will fit.

Thoughts appreciated!

Apologies if there is a post on this already??

Oct. 8-11. You know the drill. Tues-Thurs = SWAP. Friday = Car show.

Last years thread generated a lot of excitement for this great show. Thought I would see if we can get it going again.

Will leave the countdown clock to BigKev!

I will be meeting up with Flackmaster and Bob to pick up my '37 side mount spare tire covers that I have been searching for!

Don - These are from the fenders you got, so our cars will have a connection moving forward!

Hope to see/meet many of you there!

Weather has been fantastic, and the drives have been wonderful. I have been focusing on the temperature of the engine while she is out running. As I mentioned before, I flushed the cooling system several times and used No Rosion for the flush, and then switched to purified Water and the No Rosion Additive. I then put a new thermostat in. I had her out when we had the 95+ temps and she never broke 190. In the more recent drives, she has settled at 180. Not sure if there was 1 thing, or a combo of things to keep the temperature where it should be, but I will take it and not question it! I plan to toggle between Anti-Freeze for the winter months during storage, and then back to the water and No Rosion during the driving season.

Cheers,
Ben

Thanks for the confirmation Ross. Looks like there will be some set-up to minimize splash and manage flow.

I think this is it?
