Who said Creative Industries designed the cathedral tail lights instead of Richard Teague (whom I new)??? Where and who said that?.


I sure never did. Never saw this mentioned anywhere until you brought it up. What are you basing this question on? Is there a quote or misquote somewhere on this thread?

Here is what I based my comment on, in addition to the one in my earlier post:

See the AQ Packard book and old issues of The Packard Cormorant magazine for info on who styled the front ends of the V-8 Packards and Clippers.


I'm just contending the Teague is the major figure in the styling of these cars, just as he was practically the sole figure in designing the (original, production) "cathedral" tail lights. Did he ever indicate otherwise when you new [sic] him?

I don't want to get off on the wrong foot, here, perhaps there is just some misunderstood communication. There are, of course, all kinds of people involved in what comes out of a styling department. I didn't mean to slam Creative Industries' work for Packard. My point was just that their involvement was in producing items, and I thought you indicated that their involvement somehow bolstered your opinion that Teague did not have final control of design.
