Love it! A contemporary design that looks upmarket.

While a Lincoln-Packard alliance would have some complementary strengths (Ford's cost position and body, and Packard's engineering. Think of the Packard 356 vs the Continental's V12), I agree Ford would swallow up Packard so the deal would need to be more arm's length purchase of bodies.

I can imagine a common body for the Capri and Clipper.
