'39 Packard Six - Where to find ignition parts for a tune-up

The Brillman Company catalog seems to have many tune-up parts, but not spark plug wire sets for a '39 Model 110. Their catalog lists sets available for 1940-47 Model 110's, and 1939-40 Model 115's - will either of these fit a '39 Model 110?

115's are only 1937. After that they were either 110's or Six's. But yes, any plug sets that fit a 115, 110, or Six should be functionally the same as the motors are pretty much identical.

As Kev said, engines are all essentially the same but there might be a difference in where the coil is positioned over the years which might affect the wire between coil and dist cap. At the worst you might need to order a couple of fittings and a length of longer wire after the fact or if what was sent is too long, modify that one piece.

I got all the tune up materials for both my '37 115c and my '40 110
at NAPA. Did have some back and forth on points/rotor/cap as they used two different distributors, but each car, with new plug wires, was under $50...but that was pre-Covid, pre-inflation.

Here's what I bought most recently for my '40:
ROTOR NAPA ECH AL62 (IGC dist.), AL32 (IGW dist), AL58 (IGW dist)
DISTRIBUTOR CAP NAPA ECH AL63SB and AL59 (IGW distrib), AL63 (IGC dist)
POINTS NAPA ECH CS725A
PLUGS AUTOLITE ASP 3136
PLUG WIRES BELDEN BEL 700170

Plug wires are a non-authentic style. I'm not a purist in this cars' case.
