I thought 2279-9 meant it was a 23rd series 1949?

I was sent a pic of a 1949 Packard data plate that reads:
2279-1036 Paint scheme 2440 Trim code 214-215

The 54 Panama looks nice. I can't tell where the problems are on the body.

I've seen this car and it's really nice and turn key. I'm no pre-war expert but that price almost seems low for it's condition.

Ok, thanks. I'm not sure how to adjust the brakes correctly but I'll look in the auto repair manual I have.

I took it down the driveway and down the road but it still feels and sounds like the brakes are dragging or something. When I brake the steering wheel pulls hard to the left. It feels like the right front brakes are dragging against the hub.

OK, I'll redo it. Also, let me make sure I'm tightening the right one the right way. There is the nut that actually touches the bearing and pushes it into place, then the little circle washer thing with the holes in it, then the other nut that is on the outside that is nearest to the cotter pin. It doesn't address both nuts in the instructions/directions.

I put it back together just the way it came off and everything is in good condition. I seated it, then backed it off, then tightened to about 4 lbs. The wheel turns by hand and it didn't before. I'll test drive it tomorrow.
