i luv the ss chevelle rear bumper and the 66 caprice tailite..i guess thats what they are?? all really cool though... My grandmother has a bunch of pins with gold and diamonds from tastykake for her many years working there !! I dont think my brother has any pins from GM..he has been there working the assembly lines for almost 30 years now.

[WILMASBOYL78]

I worked in a Chevy store in the late 70's...we used to get lots of pins for different things...probably still have a few stashed away. Very different today <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/rolleyes.gif

<span style="color: #FF0000"><span style="font-weight: bold">Well I'm glad my dad saved these. I think they are part of the Chevy runs deep thinking and I hope some day I will own them.</span></span>

That's what they are. That one in the picture is a tie clasp. I have the full set of tie clasp and cuff links.

<span style="color: #FF0000"><span style="font-weight: bold">I was at my dad's this weekend and my sister tells me she bought me a spoon. I said a spoon she said yes a spoon. I said what the heck are you talking about and she reminded me of this and said she saw it at a flee market and bought it for me. $5.00 she is sending it to me this week.</span></span>
