Are you like me and like numbers and history?
Here are some numbers for car production for 1996.
At the number one spot was Ford with 1,426,612 followed by:
Chevy 547,724

Ford was really knocking out some cars.
Here is a 1926 Willys-Overland Whippet

1926 was the first year for Pontiac, is sported a 40 bhp, 187 CID L-head 6.
