Default Packard spark plug wires...is that stock?

I am changing my plugs and wires (car has 92,322 miles on in) and pulled off the wires and they say Packard on them. Is that the original factory wires? The plugs are AC 41-931, that are in it now, which I know is the factory plugs (not sure if they are the originals, but know that's what the owners manual calls for) I was just wondering about the wires, because I have never heard of them. I'm putting in NGK TR55's and MSD wires.

Yea guess noone ever did mine either. The car looks like it was taken really good care of before I bought it, but the owners manual does say 100,000 miles, so I guess that's what the general public goes by. Mine are looking really good and the car is running fine, I just thought it could'nt hurt to go ahead and change them with it having that many miles on it. I did the drivers side yesterday and plan to tackle the passenger side sometime this week when my wires come in. The plugs and wires o the drivers side looked like normal wear to me though, so i'm hoping the other side does to.
