Another part of the Back to the Bricks show is the original Dort Factory in downtown Flint together with its own Buick diplay area. We all know the Corvette started in Flint but most do not know that it all started in late 1800's. J. Dallas Dort and Billy Durant started the Durant-Dort Carraige Company factory in the building pictured below in 1886. By 1904 Durant was building Buicks and managed the company as it evolved into General Motors. Durant was pushed out of GM but joined with Louis Chevrolet to start a new company that would become larger than all he divisions in GM combined and Durant would obtain enough shares that he took back control of General Motors again. Flint became the hub of automobile manufacturing in America and inevitably was the birthplace of the Corvette. The original building has two floors to assemble product, is still owned by GM and is now a small museum. Here is their display cabinet related to the original Corvette.

Please tell me how this post repeated itself four times? I have zero idea how this occurred. Any ideas???
Thanx! .....Peter
Hmmmm.... Not sure Peter. I don't see any deleted posts here. Was your massage chair on vibrate when you clicked on the image... ;)
 
Thanks Eric. Looks like you have a magic eraser because three of those multiple posts have now disappeared...........LOL
Wasn't me.... They were gone by the time I got there. Thinking maybe Murray or Nik nuked the duplicates with the permanent option which would explain why I didn't see the deleted record. All good.
