My family has owned GM cars, since the 1950's. My father now owns a 1970 Chevelle SS 396 and a 1990 Astro. My Mom used to own a Vega. My Grandfather owned many Corvairs, a 1959 Impala, a 1967 Camaro RS and a Monte Carlo.
Bowtie:
In 1914, the now famous "bowtie' logo appeared for the first time on Chevrolets. Legend maintains ... and Billy Durant (Chevrolet founder) confirmed it ... that the bowtie shape was inspired by a pattern of wallpaper he saw in a Paris hotel room in 1908. He supposedly detached a small piece, folded it and placed it into his wallet, waiting for the day he'd put it to use. Durant's wife later refuted the story, saying the design was noticed in a newspaper Sunday supplement while they were on vacation in Virginia. Whatever the source, the bowtie proved to be a recognizable winner, and is still the marquee of today's Chevrolet.�
