IML : Autolite : Was Why G.M Parts are unnecessary.

["A. Foster" <monkeypuzzle1@xxxxxxx>]

Bill;
 I think that you more than proved my point about Chrysler using outsourced
parts in your last posting. One question I have is about Chrysler using
Saginaw steering, I thought that was a G.M division? There are two outside
companies that you forgot to include: Gemmer (Steering parts), and
Pittsburgh Plate Glass (Glass and Paint).
