Chevrolet was co-founded by Louis
Chevrolet and William C. Durant. Louis Chevrolet was a race-car
driver, and William Durant, founder of General Motors, had been
forced out of GM in 1910; he wanted to use Chevrolet's designs
to rebuild his own reputation as a force in the automobile
industry. As head of Buick Motor Company, prior to founding GM,
Durant had hired Chevrolet to drive Buicks in promotional races.
