Here are some sales brochure covers from Buick, Chevrolet and Pontiac from 1934, 1946, 1954 & 1957. Enjoy!

Here is an item that I recently acquired that will interest both vintage car and watch collectors and has appeared in AACA and NAWCC forum postings in the past. It is a 1927 Chevrolet radiator watch produced by the H. Didisheim Co., Switzerland. A fairly rare item today, approximately 600-800 were made and not sold at retail. They were given to salesmen "For Making Quota, 1927 Used Car Campaign" as inscribed on the back of the watch. The majority of these Chevrolet watches are from 1927, but I did see a 1929 version online. In the 1920's, Mido produced watches in the shape of automobile radiators from a wide variety of brands such as Buick, Bugatti, Fiat, Ford and Hispano-Suiza. I also found a Mercedes Benz radiator grille watch produced by Bueche-Girod in the 1960's and a Corum Rolls Royce radiator grille watch from the 1970's being sold online. In my watch, you will notice that the watch face is at a different angle than normal. It takes a bit to get used to, but I enjoy wearing it.

Here’s my 1940 Chevy Special Deluxe. Has a 216ci Inline 6, 85 hp, 3 speed manual transmission
