The typical plant numbers I hear today are around one car every 1.2 minutes or 50 cars per hour. That's 400 per shift, and 432,000 per year for a plant running full capacity. However, those goals aren't met given annual tooling and change over.

The only way Packard could sell cars at 2.4 minutes per car would be using dealer floor plans. The dealers would then have to figure out how to "move the iron."
