Thenk you,
Got your catalog and looking it over. Will be ordering before long. Still in the disassymbling stages.

Thank you,
I was able to seperate the transmission from the bell housing. The bell housing is bolted from the inside. The engine is seized up.
It came out very easy, especiall that I have all the front end off I am restoring from frame up and hope I live long enough to see it through :)
Again thank you,

We are in the process of making a completed restoration.
I ask this question for now....I live in the Springfield, MO area and would like to know where I can be some items recromed and to look for parts?
I am not real computer savey so will have to wait on my Grandson to insert pictures and register our Packard with this site.
Thank you,
