I'm grateful to all on the list who responded to
a request for help with the old Packard in the photo:

A technical expert in the Packard Car Club identified
it as a 1930 Packard Standard 8; either a Model 726
or 733 Sedan.

Without your assistance I would not have found assorted
web sites of expertise, nor so many cool photos for
comparison.

Thanks again.
