Packard Hawk picture

[larryyano]

I bought my Packard Hawk with no lettering on the front fiberglass. I am at the point in the restoration where I have to drill the holes for the word "Packard" across the front. Can someone send me a front on, closeup picture of their PH? Or is a template available? Any help appreciated.

I can supply a template, though if you check the back side you may find that the nose cone already has holes which have been filled. The letters were available from SASCO & SI should still be able to supply them, though probably at a slightly higher price.

Larry, keep your eye on EBAY. Last year I bought complete set of NOS letters for $45.00 . At that time seller had 3 sets left. Sorry I can't come up with sellers name.

Thanks, I got the pictures I was looking for. I already have the letters, but thanks for your input.

Hi Larry, I did'nt have letters for mine as well. I found two sets on e-bay at different times-- Got them for $25 a set,just last year. Letters are the same on car & Wagon hoods--- Good luck, If you can see the back side of your grille shell you should be able to see the holes,just use an awl to push holes through---Frankie[8D]

Thanks, that's a beautiful car and luckily, I do have the letters. There was some work done on the fiberglass and the placement is not obvious from either side.

You gotta wonder why P O would remove them and settle for small script. Your nose looks kinda funny [xx(] without those big bold letters. Looking forward to seeing the finished product.
