Packard meet in Rochester, MI today

1947 22+ feet long. Yes, the passenger side rear whitewall had scuff marks from hitting the curb.

1938 Twelve Derham

1929 633

Jason, on the 38 dash what is the gauge that goes in the middle?

I think it's a radio blank out plate. The radio went in the center on 1938-39 senior cars.

That is one of my favorite dashes.

He is correct, it is a radio delete. The man who ordered the car from Derham specified that the fluted trim between and at the sides of the instruments be ground off the dash and only the rings and border be chrome with the rest black, (from the letters btw he and Derham)

"Is the 1947 LWB Packard the ex Joe Kennedy car?"

I have no idea. The owner was out of Illinois.

K8096 - Thank you for posting the pictures, I enjoyed seeing them. I wish this event had been closer to home so that I could have attended. We don't have many events like this in California.

Wow, holiday outings don't get much better than a Classic Packard show. Happy I-Day, neighbours.
