I've never gotten the impression that Nance was out to kill the company; seems to me he was juggling crises and simply ran out of time/money/made some bad decisions.
Am I correct that Connor was used because suddenly Packard found itself back in the body business? And because Nance was convinced he needed a 1-story plant?
Would things have been any different if he'd ignored that and somehow used East Grand to make bodies?
Or is there too much I don't know about Packard's facilities (not to mention I was born in the year of the "true" Packard's demise...
)....

The Connor plant was a serious screw up, I have friends who worked for the company at the time and they were all convinced that Nance was out to kill the company as fast as he could.
Packard planned on adding on to Connor, they knew that it was undersized and saw that there was room around the plant to build "when things get better".
