The 1942 Brook Stevens design is interesting and might have worked for senior Packards 1946-49, but I cannot see it being successful past that. The original Clipper drawings on the other hand, with the exception of number 1, look much less attractive, too Mercedes/European looking to have been accepted here, especially after 1950. The first one doesn't look all that different than the bathtub 48-50. Except it looks like it was based on a Hudson or Jaguar instead of a Clipper.
