Default Re: 2014 Norwood Event is planned

The event details were finalized today. In conjunction with the GM Family Day at the GM Cincinnati Parts Distribution Center GM has agreed to host a special tribute display in honor of the legacy production contribution made by the former GM assembly plant located in Norwood Ohio. Until 1965 the parts warehouse was part of the Norwood assembly footprint. With the 1967 "F" car expansion the warehouse was relocated first the Sharonville and later to its current location in West Chester.
