- Harold and Buford Noland are brothers, both by blood and by membership in the UAW. They each worked for General Motors for 30 years, beginning in the mid 1950s, up until the late 1980s when their plant was closed in a sweeping effort to cut costs by the corporation.
Settle in and listen to the Noland brothers relay some tall tales of light hearted pranks and perseverance. Make sure to hang around and hear how Buford caught an escaped pig in one of the most historically significant plants to ever exist, Norwood Assembly.
This interview was recorded in 2013 in the very first round of interviews we conducted with former Norwood workers.
I love these stories. Such a wonderful time in America for the car industry. Real men worked on those lines. 💪
Thanks for watching! We really appreciate the support!
I'm sure there were problems in the plant, but these two brothers are examples of how they worked, worked hard and provided for their families and enjoyed the simple life. After all of these years, these two brothers are still each other's best friends.
I have two Norwood assembled Trans Ams (1979 and 1980), so these two men were likely involved in some way, as both retired after my cars left the Norwood plant (April 1979 and January 1980 respectively).
This is a good 1 keep the stories coming guys
Thanks for the support! We liked it too! :)
Crazy how much our country has changed and our people everyone looked and seemed so happy, respectful like they got along people looked normal
narcotics hadn’t ravished threw our people like they have now people looked alive
Plus like Archie bunker said girls where girls and men where men
What a nice happy healthy looking country we had
Glad I found this. I live about 1 mile from where the plant was. So sad it was closed.
Very enjoyable to watch. 👍
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for the comment!
Good story, be nice to have been able to interview people that worked in the plants over the years
Yeah, it's been a real pleasure to talk to these guys. Their stories are truly amazing. Please share this with anyone you think might like to hear these, and thanks for the support!
Wonderful story
Great show
I wonder what year this interview was done. This is pretty cool, my dad worked for a chevy dealer from 46-69.
Hey there! Thanks for checking out the interview. This was actually one of the very first interviews we ever shot on the Norwood plant. We shot it back in 2013. Hard to believe it’s been 10+ years since we first started researching on the factory.
What dealer did your dad work for back in the 40s-60s?
@@OriginalMotorCar Small dealer in Northeast Texas. The dealer passed in 69 in his office and they closed it. I worked there after school and Saturday from 67-69 when I graduated. Chevy was wanting a new building out on the highway before they would allow the sale so it was closed and liquidated by year end 69. There are few small town dealers anymore and the rest are being sold to big corporations. Sad.
@@OriginalMotorCarwhat about an interview with this man? See how things were on the other side of the assembly line.
They didn't look as old as they are
Yeah, Harold and Buford were late 80s and early 90s when we filmed this. Great shape for their age!
