The slight Packard connection to the Tucker in this Hemmings article is the Joy Bros Motor Car Company!

For all those who don't see the connection.

Gerd,
Didn't realise it was a hip flask until I saw the recent photos at right. A toast to Packards and Tuckers!

According to this article, circulated by MotorCities National Heritage Area, there is another Tucker tie to Packard. http://campaign.r20.constantcontact.c ... 83-4000-b327-20d2f4c100b8
Under the heading: "This Week in Automotive History" "Tucker started in the auto industry as a mail messenger for General Motors. Before age 30, he was vice president at a Packard dealership in Indianapolis, where he met a racecar designer named Henry Miller. Together, they discussed how to build a truly great automobile and teamed up to make racecars for Ford in the 1930s." Merry Christmas!
