Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The General Motors Firebird is a series of three concept cars designed by Harley Earl, and built by General Motors for the 1953, 1956 and 1959 Motorama auto shows. They were very much inspired by innovations in fighter aircraft design at the time. None of the designs were intended for production, but instead were to showcase the extremes in technology and design that General Motors was able to achieve. The cars were recently placed on display at the Henry Ford Museum in Dearborn, Michigan, and still make regular car show appearances. General Motors had done research on feasibility of gas turbine engines in cars as early as the 1930s. It wasn''t until the early 1950s that they began building an actual engine, with Emmett Conklin leading the project.
