howard; i bought the rubber about 5 years ago and used it in my 48 custom eight-it just came out as the saloon car in pi magazine -about 4 months ago i did my 48 woodie. as i remember it was a stock item and i had to buy 50 ft. i am working with john at karr at this the trying to make some rubber for the woodie rear and quarter windows. they charge a fee to make the die and then so much a ft for the rubber. do you know a gentleman that lives east by the lake that ran a collage in la that has a 22 or 23 fastback? dell

Dell, I've kind of lost track of the old Packard group here. We pretty much disbanded and many I knew have kicked off. Don't know the car you mention but there are a couple of Packards I've seen running around lately I'm not familiar with. A really nice 22-3 was moving up Clovis ave at a good clip a few weeks ago & didn't get a good look. I think it was a sedan.

The only person I know who was an educator and worked in LA lived south of Bakersfield in Frasier Park. That was some years back. He might have had a 22-23 fastback amongst his collection. Not sure if that might be the person or not.
