Sorry to say, but I don't believe Stude-Packard surviving. Stude was in terrible financial shape, & with more competition, that's only going to get worse. Packard taking it over only dragged them down, too. Jeep wasn't a separate company in '59. DeSoto is unlikely to survive either, IMO. The others had design &/or financing issues that make their survival questionable at best.The Mists Of Time said:The companies and makes they are building in 2006 are as follows.
