Firedome: Several years ago ago I used to sell copies of the Packard STB's 48 through 56 complete for about $45.00. I sold a few sets but with the cost of paper and ink I never really made anything. I mostly provided it as a service to fellow Packard owners. All except two were glad that I was selling them
However one fellow out of Chicago insisted that I should give complete copies away for free. Also a Packard parts vendor out of the Detroit area started complaining that I was hurting PAC buy selling them. These two caused me a lot of trouble which I didn't need at that time. BigKev started Packardinfo at the right time, so I donated a set of the STB's for Kevin to put online for all to have for free. From that time four years ago when I made than donation people sure have made many fine contributions to the web site. $ 10.00 is one of the best deals that your will ever find for the information that you are getting. Heck 10 years ago it cost me $100.00 for my set of 48 through 56 STB'S A PERSONAL THANKS TO ALL THAT HAVE MADE DONATIONS John F. Shireman

Graber of Switzerland built costume bodies for Packard's. I guess most of the bodies were Convertible Victoria's.
I refer everyone to page 205 in the book titled The Coach Built Packard by Hugo Pfau. John F. Shireman

AL: It seems that here in Pa if you live North of Rt 80 we didn't get near as much snow as locations such as yours did.
Here in the Williamsport Area there is a bout six inches on the ground. I hope that when spring comes the snow melts very slowly so there is no flooding for you people down there. John F. Shireman

The fact of the matter is that any profits Packard made from defense work during WWII were limited to 2%. On that 2% profit they still had to pay taxes
