G'day all, I cannot find relevance between Mercedes and BMW in a bomb torn Europe and a "cashed-up" USA motor market. I consider that the belief that the "luxury" market evaporated in around 1939 is very true. Packard had so much more unfair competition post 1945, when the goal posts were shifted severely because of steel shortages and labour problems.
IMHO Packard did the best that they could and never produced a bad car. We only have to look at who owns what in the auto market now, to find a WTF. Mack is owned by Renault? Best regards peter Toet.
