Founded by Louis Chevrolet and ousted GM founder William C. Durant on November 3, 1911. Chevrolet was positioned by Alfred Sloan to sell a lineup of mainstream vehicles to directly compete against Henry Ford's Model T in the 1920s, with "Chevrolet" or "Chevy" being at times synonymous with GM.

It isn't Chevy's 100th anniversary. Chevy is dead. Whatever this company is that the gov't cobbled together and named GM, the company that built the cars in those pictures doesn't exist anymore.
