A ding-free car?

A ding-free
car?
At GE
we have a 190 lb. PhD and a car door.
The hefty PhD can put the door on the floor and jump on it so hard he makes a 5-inch dent.
Then he can jump off again and the dent will pop back, leaving the door and the paint unmarked.
The secret? The door is made from a new and remarkable plastic, covered with an equally new and remarkable flexible paint.
It could be the answer to the tiny dings and dents of everyday parking that can rapidly age a car.
And its driver.
Could an affordable, mass-
produced, ding-proof car like this be put on the road soon?
Ask the people in GE Plastics and the answer will be a very definite “yes”.
But our ability to help car makers find new answers to old problems is far from confined to plastics.
At GE, we have some 34,000 exceptionally talented engineers and scientists. Some of whom lead the world in such areas as lighting, sensors and controls, electric motors, factory automation, and, of course, plastics.
(Which might explain why,
year after year, GE is awarded more U.S. patents than any other company in the world.)
There is a group in
GE Lighting, for instance, who have a bright idea that could mean the end of the road for conventional headlights.
Plus others, in GE Fanuc Automation, who have built assembly lines that can predict problems. So you can fix them before they happen.
And there are people in GE Motors, who are working on something that could liberate designers even further. A way to move the air conditioner to a different part of the car.
If you’re a car maker, or supplier, and you’re interested in exploring any of these areas, or in having us become part of a team to develop advanced ideas of your own, just call GE Automotive, at (313) 965-7775.
And put our minds to work.
Pick our brains.

Print advertisement
The print advertising guidelines (pages 02 to 05) apply to outdoor advertising.
Whenever possible, outdoor advertising should relate to the print or broadcast advertising used in the locality by using the same or similar headlines and images.
In the example of
a billboard in Detroit shown at the left, the image and headline were being used in
a print advertisement appearing in automotive trade magazines.

If no print or broadcast advertisements are used in the locality, a graphic signature may be used by itself in outdoor advertising, as shown in the example at the left. The signature may contain any of the kinds of messages discussed on page 03.

The graphic signature may be combined with graphic support such as the Dynamic Monogram, shown at the left.

In place of the Dynamic Monogram, a simple photograph, shown at the left, or illustration may be used as graphic support, combined with the graphic signature to create an appealing outdoor advertisement.
e 
GE Aircraft Engines: We bring good things to life.
Outdoor advertising can resemble the close of broadcast advertising by bleeding an appropriate photograph at the upper-right corner of the billboard with the graphic signature placed to the left of and below the photograph.
