GM: What a difference fifty years makes
The July sales figures are in, and U.S. automaker General Motors lost $15.5 billion last quarter. It's hard to believe a company in as much trouble as GM was once a globally-respected industrial force, and yet they were. Uh, like fifty years ago.
Here to remind us of that: This year's Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance auto show will feature rare concepts from Motorama, GM's traveling propaganda show from the '50s. Up top is a Buick Wildcat with an awesome inside-out front fender. Hit the jump for large photos, or check out the NY Times' killer slideshow and article.
