From previous discussions I learned that Packard's postwar plans were to ramp up production to 200,000 per year but this was never accomplished. Does anyone know why? Did they never build the production capability? Or did they build the plant, then never manage to sell that many cars?

This may have been an ambitious plan, but would have been possible, given the great strength of the medium and high priced car sales in the 1945 - 55 time period.
