Re: Hudson X-161 as basis for '55 Packard

Hudson may not have been too much better than Studebaker but it could hardly been worse! After all, rundown or not, Hudson had one thing Packard needed in the absolute worst way in 1953-54: a functional body plant!

The clean Panther styling, with a finessed and less heavy-handed grille, would have been head and shoulders better than Spring's gorpy hodge-podge Italia/X-161 work.
