Did you ever notice that that Chevy logo in the middle of the steering wheel looks like a PopUp??  ;)

My season is over and I have camping fever already!

OK - here is another useless fact that's stored in my brain:

That Chevy symbol was the pattern on the wallpaper in the hotel room that Mr. Chevrolet was staying in trying to get investors for his company at the turn of the century...  He cut a piece of the wallpaper off and the rest is history.  I don't remember how I know this...  LOL!  But now you know you're looking at a really old wallpaper design.

Old Wallpaper???  Say it ain't so!  LOL

I had to dig a little more on this one ... turns out it's not an Urban Legend!  The man who designed it was named Durant.  The story from Chevrolet is the one Rick just told us ~ his wife says it ain't so!  Who are you gonna believe?  LOL

Read here  for some more of the story ....
