Max Merritt has them. I wish I could find them cheaper than $1,000.

I too am returning my Packard to the Stewart Warner Vacuum tank system. Most of mine was present but not used. The small vacuum fittings both on the tank and firewall are a challenge to find but out there.
A nice tank that is rebuilt is on ebay now for $350. Though It is not the correct tank, Packards need a 4 hole mouting bracket integrated into the tank. ebay.com/itm/286132308370

Don thanks for the insight on mounting locations and possible issues there. Pictures in manuals are somewhat clear, lots of body specific cables, brakets and rods... oh my! I need to crawl around under the drive trian again and see if its possible.
I'll gather parts and see how far I get. '48 parts maybe easier than finding '29 parts. Greg

Thanks for the history and persective! I like to return these old cars back to factory original and add simple accessories I find appealing or interesting. I had never seen such a contraption- intrigues me. I do want to keep the car driver friendly as I already drive it to work and around town 3-4 times a month, california has beatiful weather year round. I plan to keep this car a driver to enjoy but dont want to make it a pain to oporate with this devise.

I am a new owner of a 1948 Super Eight Victoria Convertible and may want to install one of these contraptions. I hope to discover a build sheet for the car to see if it came with one. The car already has lots of options and was an early build 10/47 with unique trim confirguration. I bought and read Robert J Neal's Book "Packard 1948-1950". I Also found a 1st edition 5/1948 Packard Service Training Booklet for the unit.Very intersting read- lots of enginering and components and adjustments. Am I asking for trouble?

Curious if you would recommend the same type of oil for the my Houdaille shocks.
