Can somebody give me a little more info/background as to who Jim M. is and what info will be available when? I always wondered what info was available for ALL GM's since the Pontiac Historical Service started releasing info. Will data be released or will it be served on an as asked basis? Will it include everything Chevrolet from Corvair through Caprice up to '74? Is Alan Colvin really involved with this? -Hey, let me know if you need any help. haha

Thanks, Paul -patientaly waiting

If you know of Pontiac Historical Service then you know of Jim M. One and the same and he is trying to get like information dealing with Chevy's as they did with the Pontiac info. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/flag.gif[/img]

I know what the PHS does, but never contacted or knew who was involved. Cool, thanks.

Guys,

The Chevrolet Archives project that my company has been working on is without any doubt the biggest project that we have ever taken on. Over the years, Chevrolet has moved their headquarters not less than five times and their regional offices and manufacturing facilities have changed numerous times too!!! We are finding material all accross the country.......some of it in very unlikely places! Not to mention that some material may have been discarded, over time.

We still have a "lot" of work to do and materials to find! Rome (nor Chevrolet) wasn't built in a day! The interview that is in the current issue of Muscle Car Review (spring 2003)covers this topic very well.

As I said in the interview, a notification will come from Chevy, when the time is right. "More to come!.....Film at eleven!"

Jim Mattison

I was reading an article about one of the guys who writes Corvette restoration books. He said he was given access to restricted areas in GM buildings and found info and pictures on the old Corvettes that he was allowed to use in his books. He also said there was info on other GM products where he found the Corvettes info.

Matt,
So you are picking up some of Jim's "unmentionables"....kinky.
When my wife picks up my unmentionables, she gets mad at me [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/naughty.gif[/img](mine are usually on the bedroom floor, not the garage)
