I'm imagining a dealer seeing the writing on the wall for Packard jumping to an Edsel dealership in late 1957, only to be disappointed and seeing the end coming for Edsel in 1960, buying a DeSoto dealership.


Wouldn't be surprised at all if that didn't actually happen. At the risk of being politically incorrect, would he be called a two time or three time loser. Maybe two time. Three would be if he jumped back to Studebaker when DeSoto went away.


That's sad but true I think a lot of people lost dealerships they had built over many years. It was a very tough time. I can't imagine what a bleak time that was for people in the car business.
