Re: Are 57 and 58 Packards really Packards

Ken, great sleuthing! I do see one flaw - the 1956 Clipper's cathedral tail lamps as mentioned in SIA's article. The 56 Clipper's tailights were not the cathedral taillights that were mounted on 55-56 Packards. They were a separate design - I don't know who? But grafting them to the Studebaker bodies was a good move. This was obviously SIA's goof, not yours. Kudos to you for taking up the challenge and reporting back the respondents replies.
