Ya'll,

Here's what I've found already, just to add to the knowledge base.  
Again, some of this may well be specific to the 1964 model year.  
Additions and corrections gladly accepted!

The alternator and voltage regulator were provided by Motorola, who also 
provided radio gear. 

The automatic transmission was crafted by Borg-Warner, and sold under the 
name "Flash-O-Matic."  It is similar to the "Ford-O-Matic."

Wagner brake systems were used on 1964 6-cylinder cars, while Bendix 
systems are found on the V-8 cars.  Some cars may also have had Bendix 
disk brake systems.

Ignition parts, such as the distributor and ignition coil, came from 
Delco-Remy.

Original spark plug wires were Packard-branded, and the plugs themselves 
were Champion.

Carburetors for 6-cylinder engines were made by Carter, and V-8 carbs 
were produced by Holley.

Radiator clamps were made by Wittek.

Shock absorbers on 6-cylinder cars were Monroe "Monro-Matics," with 
Gabriel shocks on the V-8 cars.  Monroe also provided the "Load-Leveler" 
shocks, available as an option.

Windshield wiper systems were produced by Trico.

Seat belt components were made by Hickok.

Rambler approved trailer hitches were available from Draw-Tite.

The spotlight was created by Unity, and door ventshade kits were made by 
Auto Ventshade.

"Full-Fill" coolant, available as an common option for dealer radiator 
fills, was produced by Dow Chemicals.

Cheers,
Gwen Smith
