Hi David,
Finally, someone who knows as little as I do! What year is your car? I have been on a hunt for several small parts for a 1929 senior car since I was in college (thirty years ago). So, you probably know that the east coast is more the parts bin for pre-war cars. There are a bunch of names you will find on the internet if you google "Packard parts"...Max Merritt, etc. There are a few guys here in California who have parts, but I am finding that parts for the earlier cars are becoming more scarce. I have a list of potential parts guys that I have assembled from my search. leave me an email on the website if you want and I will respond. Most of them are the ones you probably know about...no real secrets.

There is a supplier who specializes in Packards of that era - in fact has a Light Eight as his daily driver if I remember correctly. Unfortunately. I don't remember his hame or where I put his catalogue. The catalogue has a picture of his Light Eight on the cover. Perhaps, this will trigger some one else's memory and come up with his name.

G'day David,
![]() Another possible way to find parts for your Light Eight Roadster Coupe would be to contact owners of similar cars. There are a few Light Eight owners in the Packard Owner's Registry here on PackardInfo. Or PAC's Roster Keeper for the Light Eight, his contact information is available on the PAC Website. I also invite you to include your Light Eight Roadster Coupe in the Packard Owner's Registry here on PackardInfo!

Thank you, all. I guess I need to call John Ulrich, then. Will do. Thanks again.
