Default "Echos of Norwood".....just published!

Well guys,

here's you opportunity to get the <span style="font-weight: bold">JUST</span> published documentary booklet of General Motors now demolished, Norwood Production Plant. I have been in touch with the former worker and publisher of this booklet. It literally is &quot;HOT off the press&quot; and he published it in the USA vs. having it done cheaper in China. <span style="color: #FF0000">My kind of Man. </span>

The email from him is self-explanatory. Don't tell me &quot;I didn't get you in on the 1st publication&quot;

Your pal,

Jersey Jeff Masishin

Jeff,

Yes I can! Your car's engine compartment currently appears on page 127 in the first edition of the book-in an area reserved for production quality and related technical discussion. Your car in its original condition as delivered preserved in that photograph has historic significance.

The men of Norwood agree also after looking at the images provided... that is exactly the way they were built. In this way you and the original owner- have preserved automotive history.

How many copies do you want to reserve?

Had to self publish Everybody wanted to send the book to China. I said no. It costs about 10.00 dollars more but it is 100% made in the USA.

Let me know! Let others know too... Thanks.

Phil

Ordered mine. The 1972 strike and the crushing of all those Camaros and Firebirds should be a good story especially from someone who was on the inside at the time.

Thanks Guys! Long journey to get to this point. Just to clairify I never worked there as an employee, however the retirees keep inviting me to all of the get togethers over the years so I feel honored to be with all of them and to hear of the stories and experiences.

Here is a couple of links you may want to view:

Sees what happens when you ASSume! Thought Phil worked there too. In any event, this is sure to become a Best Seller, like Colvin's &quot;By The Numbers&quot;. I'm buying one for every BATHROOM!

Due to better than expected sales of the book –We did the math and calculated that we actually ran out of the first batch of the special paper that will be used for the initial print run with last Friday’s listing of orders.

All books ordered after 1-25 will ship as part of the second paper order which should only delay shipment by a few of days at the most.
As of right now all orders should ship either at the start of the week of February 4th or the end of that week.

Ironically John Z’s order (CRG) will be the first book printed on the second batch of paper. Thanks for the order John!
