Ken: Great work. It is very interesting reading your post on the replies you got.

One side note William Schmidt didn't merely cancel Studebaker's styling consulting contract with Raymond Loewy's
firm. Studebaker had signed a ten year deal with Loewy's firm. In 1955 Studebaker was in third year of the deal with Loewy. To buy out the other seven years of the Loewy's contract it cost S&P nearly one million dollars.
