Packard Forum Index » Pre-War (1899-1942)

My 1937 Packard 1091CD used the obround upholstery buttons that were used on the twelves. Does anyone know where these buttons can be obtained? Is there a restoration shop that has the parts and the dies for assembly, who might be able to fabricate them, if provided with material to cover them?
Thanks for any help in obtaining about forty of these.

Realize we're on the wrong coast, but if anyone can help, call Armand Annereau, Armand's Auto Upholstery, 2660 Main Street, Walnut Creek, CA 94597-2729, 1 (925) 934-4373

Armand owns, runs a now fourth-generation auto/carriage upholstery shop in business since 1897, has done much work for the local Behring Auto Collection, Blackhawk Museum, specializes in Packards, has owned or owns three prewar models (and a couple postwar). Armand has the upholstery books for most years Packard issued only to their larger dealerships. If a fabric, fitting, trim item is still available anywhere, Armand can or already has sourced it.
He did the upholstery in my '40 and '47 Packards, other than the original houndstooth seating surfaces in my Super Clipper which were protected from new by both factory and dealer-installed seat covers.

Armand for decades was the one judges at Bay Area shows including Silverado, Hillsborough, Palo Alto turned to with a tricky authenticity question.

Hope this helps.
