Our Packard Digest, the MCP Website, and the MCP Facebook page provide a great opportunity to preserve the Packard legacy by educating the reader about Packard’s products, the people who worked at Packard, Packard’s contributions to Michigan and America, and the Packard landmarks that still exist.

Many of our members are true ‘enthusiasts’ in this regard, and we welcome your contributions as a researcher and/or writer. If you have an interest in helping to preserve Packard’s legacy through the ‘written word’, please contact us.

Looking for original bulbs

MCP member Bruce Blevins is working on a project to create LED bulbs. To ensure that the LED bulb that will physically fit within the allotted space, he is looking for samples of all the original bulbs he can get.  If you have 6 volt and 12 volts bulbs laying around as extras, please consider donating to Bruce. He would prefer bulbs that are still in working order. Below is a list of bulbs needed. Please contact Bruce at 810-287-7722 before sending bulbs to confirm they are still needed. Thank you!
