<VV> Chevy 100 years

[Charles Fregeau]

My grandfather started driving in 1910 at age 12.  First car was a Maxwell.
Wonder if it's the same one Jack Benny drove years later. . . . <g>

Oh Rochester. . . .

OK, looking at a lot of online material, it seems Chevrolet's first 
model (Model C) was first produced in 1911.

The first Chevrolet V-8 was in the model D in 1917.

Of course I didn't realize Smitty got his first kiss and drove a car for 
the first time in 1910! ggg This information is NOT online. ggg
