Really interesting thought on a different way to differentiate Clipper from Packard. The Clipper becomes a premium version of a lower end car (sort of a Lexus ES) instead of a cheaper Packard.Hiring an interior design person for a really nice trim level would be a good idea. I think Packard would then need two lines in their group, "Packard" (Patrician, 400)and "Caribbean" becoming a full line more like Fleetwood. This may leave a market gap between Mercury/DeSoto/Olds/Clipper and Packard/Cadillac 62. Maybe Executive is designated the Buick fighter, but based on what platform?
