I went to see the car yet again and made this video-I apologize it comes to a rather abrupt end, still figuring out the camcorder.

Ok, so it looks as if we determined it is an 1105 Su8 model 754 7 passenger sedan.

It would be most helpful if you would share a photo or information on the data plate located on the driver's side cowl just under the hood.

That information would help historians and the rosterkeeper in gathering knowledge for the Packard database.

I could barely read the data plate-it really needs to be scrubbed off witha heavy duty cleaner-this much I was able to read it was sold in December of 1933 from the Philadelphia dealership.

Just for my own knowledge where would the serial number be on a 1934 and the paint and trim codes-I dont believe there on the data plate.

There is NO serial number; there is a vehicle number stamped into the patent plate. The number is a two part number, body type + production sequence. Paint and trim codes appear on the build slip - it wasn't until shortly into the 22nd series that paint and trim codes were applied to the patent plate.
