Photo of the Day: 1956 Chevy
1956 Chevy Bel-Air. A piece of Americana! P.S. Odd two-tone paints from what I’ve seen. And! Fender skirts! Slide dates to March, 1960.
Today’s photo comes from the albums of celluloidhaven.
Be sure to look at all of celluloidhaven’s photos and our other albums. And if you would like to recommend your favorite photo with a GM car or truck in it, put it up on Flickr and tag it with “gmfyi.”

GM just doesn’t know how to engineer a good auto or truck anymore. When having to replace major items, such as transmissions, early in the life of the car is common to many owners, it’s no wonder they can’t find brand loyalty. They have opted to appeal only to the cosmetics/style and little else. I owned a Dodge product before and found out shortly after that they were junk, and now GM products are on par with Chrysler. I know GM doesn’t care about feedback from owners so I’ll just vote with my feet and buy Japanese (American made) engineered autos. They give more bang for the buck.

Your assessments don’t jive with all of the latest competitive data. GM products are not on par with Chrysler they are much better and in most cases on par with Toyota. If you’re walking to Japanese that’s your choice, but if you’re making an emotional decision that’s not based on facts then you might want to do a little research and think about investing in your own countries’ companies. Don’t believe the hype, do your research and buy based on that. Compare GM’s products at all levels and on all the brands. MPG, Quality and Cost. Good luck!
