Pre-war, Packard offered a 'Custom' Six Clipper Sedan [1502]. It had whiskers. Just to make identification a little more

"What vintage are the parking lights mounted on the front fenders?"
John, Believe they are 1940, sometimes retrofitted to earlier '30's Packards.

Thanks, JD and Mal. Anyone have any info on the push button turn signal switch on the 120C? Obviously a retrofit, but from where?

So I understand - the whiskers are the extension of the grille around the front fenders, right?

I don't like those whisker things. I think the car looks much better without them.

Hi
Those "whiskers" were all the rage in '42. Wonder who was peeking in whose styling studio when these were under development? After all, both were coming from Briggs...
