    upload_2024-10-21_20-41-42.png Due to the longest strike in GM history at the Norwood assembly plant, unfinished cars couldn’t meet the new 1973 crash standards. Rather than update them, GM decided it was cheaper to crush them. A few survived, donated to trade schools, but the ultimate humiliation? The crusher ran on a Ford 6-cylinder engine!
