Off subject alittle but a good friend of mines grandpa worked at GM in the 60's doing the clay models. After he passed and they were going threw his belongings they found a bunch of very large drawings that are sighned. She contacted someone at Gm and they told her that the drawing were property of GM and they would be contacting her back to pick them up but she never heard back from anyone and it's been 5 years.

Interesting.

The Orion, Wentzville and Hamtramck plants are "sister" plants (constructed at the same time).

I see that an "Ampera-e" is different than the Chevy Volt derivative.

As an architect, I hope someone in the future wants to auction off some of my drawings.
