Hi 1928pack526
Your rear half of flywheel cannot be disingaged from hub? According to the parts book the 443/626-633/640-645 all have the same vibration damper hub sleeve (part #158782). Mine very definitely is free of the hub. (tight sliding fit to the hub and to the flywheel halves. (made of brass/bronze). The size of the facing ring is 3 1/8 ID 4 1/2 OD. Another reason I believe the rear half of your flywheel is detachable is that according to the parts book the 443/626-633/640-645 all have (2) identical vibration damper flywheel facing parts (part #146998) made from hard phenolic material. One for each side as mine does. easyed

I have two engines for my 626 and have disassembled the damper. Yours seems very similar. The flywheel halves (part #147208) are a slip fit on a brass sleeve (part #158782)(upper picture of your flywheel halves) which is sandwiched between the hub (part #158729) and flywheel outer and inner bosses. The two halves of the flywheel are locked together by the springs (part #148434) and allows some movement in your case. My two halves actually have dowel pins and a friction ring (rubber composite) to further dampen this movement. As I see it the flywheel assembly is able to rotate on the keyed hub to find the best balancing point. To add a little friction to this operation sandwiched between the hub flange and one flywheel half and the pulley flange and the other flywheel half there is a phenolic friction disc (.125 thick)(part #146998 damper flywheel facing). In summary: The damper is separatable. Able to rotate as a unit on crank. Has minimal movement between two halves of the flywheel damper controlled by springs. Sandwhiched between keyed hub boss and fan pulley. Rotational movement controlled by friction disc. Will post some pics of the 626 damper soon. easyed ps side mounted water pump started after motor #238842 for the 626-633)

As you can see the rear windows are outfitted with the silk curtains. (both side windows and rear window) Still investigating how to clean the whole interior. Always good to start with original even if worn and soiled. Easyed

Will check with my Packard friends in the area. My car was outfitted with the Toggle Grips as pictured in the Approved Accessories Catalog No. 500, PA-1420 costing $7.50 in 1929. There is one for each side. Will keep you posted. Easyed

If you check the approved accessories catalog, page 20, cowl band and lamps are optional equipment for ALL 1929 cars. My understanding is that De Luxe Equipped Cars had this option installed. On page 2 and 3 are examples of open bodied cars with this option installed. Easyed

My 1929 626 has the original jack which is the same as the Walker(Black) Walker Mfg Co. depicted in the image. As my car was delivered from a dealer in Winnipeg, Manitoba the jack manufacturer was Auto Spec Mfg., Windsor, Ontario, Canada; otherwise it looks identical. It is black also. easyed
