Special Report: General Motors 100 years old and counting.

This is a special page by the Detroit News. It gives alot of great history and trivia. Worth a look, especially the pics and videos.

Re: Special Report: General Motors 100 years old and counting.

I only got 10 of 15 in the GM quiz. I have to brush up on the 00's, 10's and 20's I guess.

Re: Special Report: General Motors 100 years old and counting.

theres something fishy in that poll look at this
Quote:
Your answer: A.
Sorry, The correct answer is A. Osceola. The body was built under the supervision of Fred J. Fisher - who later founded Fisher Body with his brothers - in the Wilson Body Co. plant in Detroit. Only one was built and some historians credit it as being the auto industry's first concept car.
My answer was A and it said im incorrect
