Looks great! Just curious, I've seen 1955 and 1956 Packards with both chrome and with gold scripts even on different cars of the same model. Was the gold an accessory or was it standard only on certain colors?

Sorry, it could be a change between 22nd and 23rd series as mine came from a Henney-Packard where such changes were rare.

Looks nice and similar to the originals although the originals had no screws visible and, of course, they were on the belt molding as you already know. Are the ones you used of the type being sold on eBay?

Yes, I knew it wasn't 1940 but it does seem curious that a decal would have been used at all!

I have some handles here at a low price but can’t ship for a while as I am far away from my shop at the moment.

Some years had a decal and I’ve seen other 1940s without the anti-theft number too. I owned three but that was back in the ‘60s for two of them and I never paid any attention whether they had it or not even on the one I owned for decades.

If it slid forward it would be easy to steal! Anyway, I always thought that the way these were attached was rather ingenious in the simplicity.

Last I looked, I don’t have the ability to delete but I see other duplicates too.

You’ll probably be able to get it on more evenly with the aerosol but I still recommend sandblasting first.

I’ve never gotten the hang of brake pliers! I always end up using Vice-Grips and a large flat screwdriver. Also, I’ve fund that the non-serrated retainer installers are far easier to use than those with serrations.
