I know that Packard called its optional radiator ornament a pelican in 1937 and 1938 accessory catalogs, and in the '50s it was called a cormorant.
I am curious to know the earliest date of documented usage, and was it in corporate issued item or an ad or what?

That IS the correct spring for the 1937 Super Eight and Twelve.

I have 70 + pieces of trim. Unfortunately, Packard did not label them with part numbers. It would be helpful if you would post pictures of location and dimensions and maybe a closeup of the contour of the upper section that you have.
I hope I can help...

I can't say what the function was on the Packard, but years ago I had a '67 Lincoln convertible which had additional door locks which became engaged at about 7mph to provide more stabillity.

I have a couple of air cleaners which I can't identify, so if someone posts pictures and some dimension, I might be able to help.

I have a NAPA 2509330 on our Late Third Series Six.
NAPA says it is obsolete and the new number is 2526366. Cross references to Gates TR26366 ACDelco T26366 Hope this helps... Enjoy your ride....

1947-50? goddess in CNN Keytruda commercial

FYI....Twice while watching CNN around 7:30PM (Central) there was a commercial for the drug Keytruda.
As usual, many scenes are flashed while the narrator rambles on. What caught my eye was a millisecond of a shot of the stylized Goddess of Speed...about '47-50. I'll bet a million viewers have puzzled..."What the heck was THAT?!?!?!" Maybe others have seen it????

Years ago I acquired a pile of '39 Super Eight parts from a chap who had restored a car and wanted to get rid of the remnants of the parts car.
I have these brake drums (and assorted other hard parts) and would like some confirmation of identity before I start advertising them. Any help is appreciated. Thanks for looking.. P.S. I also have a steering column and box, front fender supports, brake cores, etc if any reader is interested .... Attach file:  (398.97 KB) (360.28 KB) (411.65 KB)

When I bought our '37 Super Eight Convertible Sedan back in '98 it had these rear shocks, which are not correct, according to the Parts Book.
They are much heftier than our other Super Eights. Are they more appropriate for the Twelve? Any help is appreciated. Attach file: (353.78 KB)
