This page was zapped by two idiots called Mar Mar and Caley. I've added some information I found on other sources and will try to fix the article at a later date if nobody else does.

Cord body dies
After the demise of the Cord Corporation in 1937, Norman De Vaux was able to buy the 810/812 body dies (for $40,000, iirc). He tried to push a car of his own, again (he already did before with the short-lived De Vaux in 1932). When this failed he sold the dies to Hupp (and the premises in Oakland were he planned production of his De-Vo to GM). So, the dies came not buy straight away from Cord. Further, there were many problems with them: They had been stored for a time in the open, they were heavily used (which resulted in extensive fixing for many panels) and Hupmobile had to create a one-piece die for the sedan roof (which at Cord was welded together from several panels). All this delayed the Hupp Skylark, and it cost money. --Chief tin cloud (talk) 11:51, 9 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Apparently, the dies weren't much good for mass-production in any case (tho, yet again, I don't recall where I came across that little tidbit :.  TREKphiler   any time you're ready, Uhura  00:46, 10 February 2011 (UTC)
