Default Impressive

So much to read there David . Well done .

Billy Durant ... what a character and the father of the GM setup


Reading the link with the BUICK engine and OPEL reminds of a visit to a chap in Melbourne who had a beautiful BUICK Marquette 2 door coupe in his Garage . He also owned a vintage VELIE car he had bought in the 1950's .

Default Darn another web site I'll have to read and enjoy

Hi David

Only had a short time this morning to take a look at your new site, had to get out and work on the trucks. But from a quick look I suspect I'll spend a good bit of time reading and enjoying.

My wife will probably reading through it as well her father was with GM from the 20s into 50s so GM History of that period is interest to Margaret as well.

Cheers and keep up the good work.

Phil

Default Back to top...

I am looking into the operations of GM India, and while searching I found back the website of the late David Hayward. It is utterly informative and worthy of bringing it back to your attention

"David Hayward's Automotive History - This site has been established in order to publish various Working Papers for general study and comment on automotive history."
