This is a list of Reproduction parts in my Fathers inventory that my be available separately from these package prices. His name is Dwight Bond and his number is (308)468-5885. He and I are right across the highway from each other and he owns all of the Packard molds and jigs. I manufacture all of this kit from his tooling, brand new for you special order. The inventory is small and you will need to call him for prices and details on these accessories, or I can inquire for you. Some of the parts in his inventory are: New chrome reproduction headlight buckets, lenses, and trim rings, Packard logo hubcaps, Rear luggage rack mount castings and arms, luggage rack, luggage rack trim strips, luggage rack Packard emblem, Headlight mount plates and machined bolts, castings for retaining plates that hold bumper irons to frame horns (front and rear), castings for correct door handles and bezels, Chrome grille teeth, Front chrome turn signal lights (top of front fender) and hardware for duplicating horns. Dwight may also have some misc. original parts in his collection.

There are also a few items that I could custom build for you as upgrades to your package. First, we do have an aluminum material we can build a custom windshield frame for you, We do have a jig to build a new luggage rack steel platform, I can build from scratch front and rear bumper braces (for stock outer bumpers), we have all patterns to make all the garnish moldings out of hardwood instead of fiberglass, and I can build a custom seat frame from scratch for the roadster and Victorian convertible to resemble the original. I can also custom order you a new aluminum radiator to fit this car.

The parts that we do not have available that you will need are the HEADLIGHT STANDS, FRONT AND REAR OUTER BUMPERS AND MEDALLIONS, and STEEL HOOD. The last car I built, I purchased used original bumpers, and headlight stands from E-Bay. The biggest issue is the correct short hood. I believe Rootlieb Inc reproduced that hood for us in the past, but no longer has them available. I do make a fiberglass pair of side panels, and hood top that we use on the limo (longer) that may be modified to fit this short hood version. I would be happy to modify that fiberglass hood for you to fit this package. If that option is not used, you may have to find an original hood or have one custom made special for your car. The main issue is how authentic “Packard” you require the finished car to be. There are lots of Ford after market parts that would be sufficient to finish the car. (Handles, Lights, etc) To have it exact would require the extra effort on these accessories. I am very willing to help you make these choices and hunt for certain feasible items. Wire wheels and white wall tires are all available new.

These prices reflect the finished painted chassis, with the assembled, complete body mounted to it with all of the fiberglass parts to go with, and you build it yourself. My shop is capable of building the car all the way to “turn-key” for you. It may interest you to have me quote certain assemblies past this package stage. For example, we can fit and install all fenders and running boards, hinge and latch hood, install steering linkage and column, do all chassis plumbing, install heat and air conditioning, wiring, and even paint. Let me know if you require anything else quoted for this package. There are several pictures of our packards and more information on our website.

Thank you for your interest, and feel free to call me and I will be happy to clarify any or all of this for you. I look forward to hearing from you, and hope that I can earn your business.

Sincerely

Kyle Bond
