Well different is great! This car was bought before I knew much about Packard's. The more I learn about them the more interesting it becomes. Thank's for the replys. When I get a chance I'll post some more pics.

I thought that might stir things up a bit. lol

Found dipstick handle looked like another broken wire. Oil looks good. On the 6's it's buried well. I noticed in the registry most are 8cyl, are 6's rare or undesirable? I have not had much time to pull things apart yet as summer is my busiest work time.

I will have closer look for the dip but mines a 6cyl so not as much room there.As for paint I guess the burgundy may be original color but it was painted at some point.

Thanks for the pics. Found the holes but no plate. Where is the paint code found? Is the dipstick in the oil fill tube or some where else?

I am registered the rusty red one.It was the small tag left side. Will look for driver side tag but not standing out. Is there a door post tag on the 47's?

I bought a 47 Clipper in April of this year.I wanted to get my model engine nailed down before starting off frame restoration. The info I have is as follows. Firewall # <72655I> Firewall tag 2182 17263 Head# 367633 date 12 8 46 Engine 6cyl only can make out "f" .
Also have painted by Fred Church and John Wadsworth Brentwood N.H. punched on right rear wheel house covered when the door is closed. Random painters or Packard guys? Any help would be great.
