Profile

Clearly influenced by aeronautic and rocket design, the amazing GM Firebird was first shown to an astounded public in 1954. Not only did it look like an aircraft but it was even powered by a gas turbine engine. Two successors followed in 1956 and 1958, each a showcase for GM's groundbreaking design and instrument technology.
