I have started on front disk brakes. This Paul's method from Craigs 56 Packard Panther site.
The parts list is back on the 1st page.

I have one of the kits. Planning to install it this spring/summer. I am hoping to use a universal column linkage kit. It uses a 12 volt starter. The parts seem nicely made.

Best Regards,

If you like cleaning your car alot. Waterless Wash concentrate and distilled water are alot cheaper than buying bottles of spray detailer premade.
Best Regards,

Also you spoke of a 700R4. Bendtsen's Speed Gems has a kit to connect those to Packard Straight 8's. I will be doing the same this spring summer, but 4L60e.
Best Regards,

I hadn't thought of that. Thanks!

Thanks. To recap:
51 & 53 have darker outers and lighter inner faces
52 has lighter outers and darker inners
51 & 53 had white lettering and silver poiter caps
52 is the same for 200's but 300/400 have gold lettering and gold center caps
200's have black with silver faces
300's 400's have either two tone green or Maroon & silver faces. Maybe others too.

Thanks!

I am trying to figure out the differences between the gauges for 51-53. Is this right? Base models had gauges with black outer and metal inner faces? Higher models had color keyed outers with metal inners? 52 was the reverse with black or color keyed inners and metal outers?

Thanks.
John
