Some great points made there. But consensus at the time was that Ferry was in over his head and he knew it. Imho Packard styling was lagging badly by 53/4, the front end design was really lame and the rest was bland, again imho, and that, with lack of a V8, did them in, and anything Ferry did or put in motion by that time was several years too late. Had Mason lived, who knows what glories might have been acheived by a combined Nash/Hudson/Packard? Shame on George Romney. Just my 2 cents.
