G'day Mike, to PackardInfo, I'm sure the wait's well worthwhile. With that colourful history better keep an eye on the rearview mirror for mikec's Packard Police Car! -https://packardinfo.com/xoops/html/modules/registry/View.php?ID=228 in advance for entering her in the Owner Registry. The Thief Proof number(anti theft number) should look something like the one in the pic below and it's found stamped into the firewall. Attach file:   (22.27 KB) Posted on: 2009/9/27 1:19

I also have a '51 4 door. Mine is a 200 model. The thief proof number is right above the heater box on the firewall (passenger side). It should be between two triangles. Below is a pic of mine.

There were three basic straight-8 engines offered in 1952, and each one had a high compression head option.
