Thank you for your excellent close up photos!! These were very helpful in determining the position of mounting brackets, etc. !!! I have looked at the pictures in the manual, but they do not show the location of the 'flower' shaped tension washer or the washer with the hole in the center that fit on the lower side of the hydraulic pump rotors. I'm not sure which direction or in what order to install these. Sincerely, Keith

I work for a body shop/repair facility and have recently taken on the job of partially restoring a 49 custom eight convertable. The job was started by someone else, and is disassembled, all except the motor and trans, which are completed and installed on the frame. The body is nearly ready for paint, and I need information on locations and mountings of items in the engine compartment, especially the hydraulic pump for the top/windows/seat system. I also need a COMPLETE diagram of reassemly of the pump, as it is completely (and I mean completely) disassembled! Anyone have underhood photos of a convertable from this time era? Any help is greatly appreciated, as I have no Packard experience! Thanks! Keith
