Fisher Body Craftsman's Guild, Chuck Jordan, 1947

1947 California - 1st National winner. Chuck Jordan went on to spend his career as Vice-President of Design for General Motors. This model is what opened the door for him.

The Fisher Body Craftsman's Guild was established in 1930 to encourage teenagers to build and submit a model car of their own design as a means of identifying future automobile design talent. Prizes were awarded, up to a $4000 first place award. The program operated until 1968.
