Was horrible quality REALLY that much of an issue? Or was it all the teething troubles that come with new engineering, building everything at the Conner Ave. plant, etc?

I've always believe the poor (I wouldn't call it horrible) quality came about because of the Conner move, less than complete testing of some of the new technologies, etc. I think most would agree that the 1956 cars are much better in all respects.
