I have repeatedly tried to sign on to the Packardinfo site at the sign-on page using the userid and password sent to me by the sign up procedure. It will NOT let me in. My userid is PackardV8 and the password is a combination of upper and lower case alphabetic letters. What am i doing wrong???

Check your PM

I have been asked by a few folks that have slow internet connections if they could get a CD or DVD of the material on the website. Currently the site has over a 1 Gigabyte of Packard related information for download. So the information will only fit on DVD.

So here is what I will do for those that want a copy:

For $5 (US Funds), I will mail you a DVD that contains everything on the website up to the point I receive your request. This includes the postage to anywhere in the US.

Where your 5 dollars goes:

$1.59 Shipping (current media rate to US addresses)
$1.00 DVD
$0.85 Packard Materials
=============================
$3.44 Hard Costs

The extra $1.56 will go towards site hosting fee's and the such.

As you can see I am not doing this for profit, just trying to allow folks out there with dial-up connections the chanch to get a copy of the material that is here on the website.

If you are interested, please send me an email.

Here are todays specials, hot of the grille (yes grille not grill):

I am trying to find someone that may have any of the 57 and up Studebaker ones that may contain pre-57 Packard information.

Geez, those pesky Borg were on Earth even earlier than Star Trek indicated! On the hour, does it chime: "Resistance is futile, you will be assimiliated!" <img src="http://forums.aaca.org/images/graemlins/blush.gif" alt="" /> <img src="http://forums.aaca.org/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />

The Packardinfo.com website is great or what! We learn something new every day. Thanks Kev! Keep up the good work.

The 1952 Service Counselors are now online. Thanks again to Howard Hanson.

He actually sent it to me earlier in the week, but I was traveling for business this past week. Here are the states I had meetings in: CA > TX > NJ > CT > NYC > PA > NYC > NJ > CA all in the span of 5 days. I'm dog tired.

I'm hoping to get some work done on the '54 this weekend. But it's supposed to be around 108 here. That makes for one hot garage. So we will see how that goes.

Just a note to Kevin: all the documents I sent for scanning and uploading to your site were returned to me in fine condition on June 23. I am very pleased with the quality of your scans, and am very grateful for the many hours you put in as you scanned the documents.

Thanks much, Kevin, for your fine efforts.

All the best,

Mark in Alaska

P. S. Forecasted high here today is 57!

Great i'm glad to hear that the materials made it back to you in a timely manner. I see the postoffice didn't end up routing them to Outer Mongolia like they did on the way to me. <img src="http://forums.aaca.org/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
