Thanks. This will be invaluable when I am ready to install the clock, which will hopefully be soon. Does your book also say what fasteners attach the clock mechanism to the case? I think there are 4 spots where it is attached.
Thanks, again.

Packard Parts Manual (1935-1941), Group 10, section 10.038 lists Part 5310, Screw #8-32, x 1/4" round head. If you go to section 50.000 of the parts manual, it will give you more details. I found this under the medallion section, but the medallion and clock mount in the same manner, and there is nothing in the "clock" section for hardware for the 120C. The parts manual is a pain to decipher electronically (at least it is for me, I like regular books) but it is invaluable. Good luck!

Thank you, and yes, the #8-32 x 1/4 will attach the clock case to the glove box front. But, the fasteners that actually hold the clock mechanism to the case, I truly think, are much, much smaller. I'll go back and verify this and then let you know what I find. Again, I thank you for this information and yes, I too, have some trouble deciphering the parts manual.

All of your information has been great. Now, does anyone have information as to where the power wire and ground wire are attached. I see in my research that the ground should be attached to the case somewhere, but not so sure about the location of the power wire. Thanks again for all of your information.

If you look at the page Ramacuda posted, it discusses wiring the clock as well.

If you are speaking of where the power wire mounts on the clock mechanism itself, there is usually a stud extending from the clock or if space is at a premium possibly a lower profile screw terminal. Either one is mounted in an insulating bushing on the back of the clock mechanism. Can't speak to 37 but on later clocks thru 47 the terminal is hidden and protected by a cover plate which is screwed onto the finished housing which holds the clock mechanism and mounts the assy to the glovebox door. If 37 had the illuminating light for the glovebox interior which turns on when the door opens, the bulb power wire also attaches to the same clock terminal.

Thanks and yes it does tell me where the ends from the clock attach, but not where the wires themselves attach to the clock, unless I'm missing something here. I would like to see exactly where the wires attach so I don't cross something up and burn out the mechanism. Again, I do thank you for the information.
