Hi ! I am looking for a choke assembly for My 1938 Packard V12 series 1608 , any help regarding vendor/ supplier/ dealer for this part will be helpful.

I believe the proper designation for what you're looking for is a Stromberg Model C automatic choke. It was used by Packard on the 1933 and 1934 Eights and Super Eights, and I believe all the Twelves plus the 1932 Twin Six. It was also used on the 1933-38 Pierce Arrow Eights and Twelves, 1933-34 Stutz DV-32, and a couple of models of Studebaker and Oldsmobile.

When properly adjusted this unit gives exceptional performance, I'm enclosing a useful article on set-up recommendations.
