Part Number

[acolds]

Have a question Packard friend asked me if I could find what a 3070981 was it not in My 57 Studebaker Packard parts book any help greatly appreciated

[Studeman]

I don't think that is a valid part#. There's too many digits...

307098W- Ornament Ring- Front Fender. W5-Y, 5H ('54 Commander)

That's the small chrome ring that goes around the lazy-S on the front fender of a '54 Commander Sedan.

That would be a Ring for the lazy V-8, Ray! [:0]
Unless it were the 097W Ring for a Champion!

It was only used on Regals and Land Cruisers.

That's a good guess, probably the only Stude. number close to that wrong number.

I was just going by the parts-book drawing.. I wasn't asked to look up the number for the S or V8...
are you surprised I made the "mistake" or that you caught it?

Can your friend give a description of the part in question, almost seems like it could be the part manufacture's in holse number like Ray says it too many digits to be Stude. I'll add my two cents DO NOT call a Packard parts vendor about this if it may be a Studebaker part! One vendor told me at Hershey "Thats a F$^&*#%@ Studebaker part" after I asked him is this a Parkard moulding? (showing him a NOS moulding in a Packard bag)

Some of those 'Packard' guys have no love for the ones not made in Detroit. [:0]

My friend looked again and said there was a mark on the number and it is a W thanks for all the help. Just want to say that not all Packard people are unfriendly or will not associate with we Packardbaker people you just need to find the better grade of Packard people.

I understand I have a 46 Clipper that is a 'when I get a chance', I put some more patches in it. I have sevral friends that are way into Packards, it was just that one snobby vendor who shall remain nameless.
