Bob, Email(ozstatman@gmail.com) me the photo/s you want posted and I'll be pleased to do it for you.

I like the port and starboard markers on the Whippets radiator cap!

If you look at the other end of the bumper it appears to have the bushing.

Don't own a Metz but was at the Garlits museum in 2012 and while there I took some pic's of a 1914 Metz. PS - I know a guy in New Zealand who has a Metz and when I'm there in 2014 for their Packard Rally I'll try to get some photos.

G'day Billy, Don't know where you are in Oz, but closer to home here are a couple of clubs where you might have some luck. Willys Overland Club of Victoria wocv_aust@hotmail.com Willys Whippet Overland Knight Restorers (WWOKR) PO Box 217 St. Pauls NSW 2031

Bob, Thanks for the advice, I have corrected my reference to make it a 1911 Brush!

Or for just a radiator you might try Gerry - clink on the link below to take you to a For Sale thread on PackardInfo.com http://packardinfo.com/xoops/html/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?topic_id=13041&forum=8

G'day Doc, The usual suspects - Steele Rubber, Kanters and Max Merritt should have these.

"looks like the requisite panels have been found courtesy of a Packard parts and paint supplier" OOPS! It appears we'll have to keep looking. Parts are not yet "found", there was some confusion in mis-identification of the apparent prospective seller referred to above.

G'day Dave, My understanding is that the 120 inner fender panels ARE different from the 160/180 panels. Not much, but they are different. From memory, measurements conducted on my 120 and friend Noels 160 panels, for which the panels are required, a few months ago showed the 160 panels to be slightly longer than the 120 panels as well as other small dimensional differences. Saying that, it looks like the requisite panels have been found courtesy of a Packard parts and paint supplier. And my description of "lower grill panel" should be better described as a "radiator splash guard".

That sounds good packards42. We're also exploring other avenues but in case they don't deliver your parts cars check might turn into a great Christmas present!

Wanted - '41 160 right inner fender panel and lower grill panel, see pic's. Don't worry about shipping to Oz, that can be taken care of, but will require shipping to a US address.

"Theres a guy over on the Packard info site selling a whole bunch of stuff for Packards of your era including radiators" Here's a link to his ad - http://packardinfo.com/xoops/html/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?topic_id=13041&forum=8

G'day Mallory, You might also post on the PackardInfo.com Website - http://packardinfo.com/xoops/html/modules/article/

Steele Rubber looks to have the mats - http://www.steelerubber.com/search?year=1939&make=packard&model=super-eight&style=4-door-touring

Yup, a "P" Model Ford Woodie! On US eBay but I see the car is in The Netherlands. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Ford-Other-6-door-Pilot-Woody-shooting-brake-Ford-Pilot-Woody-real-barnfind-stationwagon-shooting-/400583699789?pt=US_Cars_Trucks&hash=item5d44a62d4d&vxp=mtr

Will be better if you post this in the Buick -Post War Forum here--> http://forums.aaca.org/f162/

Again, thanks to the same kerfuffle, thanks Jeff for the link to the Tom Mix Packard photo!

Jeff, Don't want to "taint" your Peerless thread but I'd be interested to see a pic of the Tom Mix Packard. So if you don't want to post it here PM or email(ozstatman AT gmail.com) would suffice.

Congratulations L on the new Packard! Most seem to need more work than anticipated.

The maps are a great resource. Being a newbie to Hershey last year the maps in the program proved invaluable in being able to navigate around the entire site. One thing pointed out to me was to use the large light poles as reference points for general navigation then zero in from there. The light poles have numbers on them and are identified by those numbers on the maps. Won't be back for a couple of years, it's a long swim from Australia, but I will be back!
