According to the Nance Papers, Packard surveyed people about the Request at the 1955 Chicago Auto Show and the results were mixed at best, leading the Product Committee to reject it for future production, concluding that no circa-1940 grill could be made to look modern.

The version that Schmidt's team settled on for the Predictor and '57 Program was deemed modern.
