Thanks Howard but all I need are the chain pulls - looks like no more that four inches each. The zippers are fine and installed. The upholsterer died a few years ago.

Does anyone have the zipper chain pulls used on the 56
(perhaps 55 also) Caribbean interior cushions?

There was a demo chassis and I saw it at Warren several years ago. It was displayed outside on a trailer.

For those of you who desperately need new spring shackle bushings for your 55-56 Caribbean.

My 56 Patrician came from the factory with wire wheels, but they were gone when I purchased the car. Car was ordered by a dealer for himself and he had it loaded.

My parents bought a new '52 hdtp from J.P. Mooney in McKeesport Pa. They wanted my stepdad to leave it in the showroom because it drew so much attention. It was Sunset red metallic and Twilight taupe metallic with genuine dark red leather and grey nylon interior with a dark red dash.
WOTTA car!! I learned how to hotwire it when I was 14. Taught myself how to drive.

THANKS Dell! I will call him tomorrow.

Gentlemen, I am in need of four Courtesy light lenses. Thees are the side marker light lenses on all 55-56 Packards.
Our friend Dave Czirr thinks that Packards International handled the repro of these lenses several year ago. If anyone can confirm the source I would appreciate it. Thank all of you and I hope you had a good Memorial Day to honor those who have served.
Dave Czirr just informed me that 56 lenses are milky while 55 lenses are clear.
I need the milky ones for 56.
Randy
