His own words describe it best. I felt all through my career, the car that always dominated the luxury market while I was growing up was the Packard automobile, because of its engineering and elegance. Wherever you went in the world, into the 1950s, the Packard always stood out. And the best thing I could do was to try and preserve a museum with a collection of one model for each year of the company's existence, between 1900-1958.
