Nice photos Gordon. The only thing I noted was the tires. Back then I believe they would have been solid (and a straight tread).....guess the owner felt the newer tubed would offer a better ride and cost less.
You can go to page 2 and 3 and see two 1910 Packards. Maybe at next years show I can get more information on what the owner has done to this truck.

There are plans for a 1919 Packard in Kentron plan book # 14.

Wonder/ does anyone know if those plans are still available?
My machine shop could use a truck.

There is a good set of plans for a 1911 Packard 2-Ton truck, in the Mar-Apr 1991 Gazette.
