Ditto, Rusty O. But my what ifs still include wisely pulling back body tooling back to EGB instead of leasing Conner from Chrysler, and (impossibly) doing the 55 restyle a year sooner with V8s to better compete with the all new senior GM offerings (unlike poor Ford and Chrysler in the same spot). Poor advice (Powers), the bad Studebaker audit, lack of a insurance company money infusion, loss of Defense contracts to bridge the gap, all combined to sinkhole Packard very quickly. Keeping George Mason alive might have prevented most of this angst. The opposite for Charlie Wilson.
