My wife had a beautiful Teak dining room set when I met her. It still looks like new today, 32 years later. I'm quite certain that if I so much as scratched it, it would be grounds for divorce.

After a disappointing search I have decided to try to make some of the more obscure Packard 58 connector housings for the earlier cars. This are the samples I have on order from Shapeways to see how they looks and print.
1) Early Ignition Switch housing (switch in the dash)
2) The classic "T" dual connector like used on early under the dash wiper switches
3) The classic "L" dual connector like used on early under the dash wiper switches
4) The single housing that these other connectors are based off from.
Note these are all female wire connector sockets. If it works I will also make the housing for the male Packard 58 used in places like pigtails to add accessories like AC power, AC clutch connectors, etc.
If interested stay tuned.

American Autowire already sells many terminals like those. have you looked there ? Here is a link to a downloadable catalog. Go to page 128 to start the terminal section, at least in the 2023 catalog, and see if what you want is in there.

Tailgate is almost fitted. Needs a bit more hammering but I’m beat so time to walk away for a bit before I do something dumb. The 408 arrived today as well.

I know about that walk away thing. Good choice.
Test fitting a tailgate alone is stressful, scratches just waiting to happen. Looks like it is gonna be great.
How do you put the engine in that, from the bottom?

He went to a car event, Blueprint had a booth there, too good to pass up . . .
Kinda like going to Costco for TP and walking out with a Sectional Couch, Gazebo, or Gun Safe. Ya know, just can't pass up a good deal
We are all in agreement that the 408 was a good choice. And, we do want to see a burnout video, even if it is the first in 30 years

The slants gonna be too cool I wanna drive that. It’s going in 1964 dart wagon that I have dibs on. I don’t have any interest in this at all now that has the 408 but it should be way easier to get top Dollar out of!
