Very nice. No idea on the ID plate unless caribbeandude has the 54 & 55-56 plates as well as the 51-3.https://packardinfo.com/xoops/html/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?post_id=112332#forumpost112332
You will need both pieces for the speedo gear. The number of teeth and diameter of gear is different for various ratios. The adapters are slightly offset to space the diameter accordingly. If Kanter doesn't have it, best other option would be a parts transmission from a 56 Clipper since the 2.87 was primarily used on Clippers. If no one else here has anything, perhaps Ross might or possibly Mike Dulinski breaks his stuff down that far and would have it.

'54 Plates are not the same as the 55/56 ones.

Wow! What a great restoration! I hope the local folks appreciate the work you have put into that automobile. I would be happy to have you show up at any cruise/show/meet that I attended. You should be very proud. It reminds me when the local car club would say "We're going to take our cars down to such-and-such". I would always reply "OK, you take your cars and I'll bring my automobile".
You have an automobile!

Howard, Thanks for the data plate info. i will contact Carribbean dude and see if he has the correct plate, and I suspected that both pieces were necessary for the speeometer, but I had received some opinions to the contrary, so I thought it best to chedk with the experts.

Thanks Mal, Do you think that I should start looking for a set of tire chains?
