A ding-free car?<br />

A<br />

ding-free<br />

car?<br />

At <strong>GE</strong><br />

we have a 190 lb.<br />

PhD and a car door.<br />

The hefty PhD can put the<br />

door on the floor and jump on it<br />

so hard he makes a 5-inch dent.<br />

Then he can jump off again<br />

and the dent will pop back,<br />

leaving the door and the paint<br />

unmarked.<br />

The secret? The door is<br />

made from a new and remarkable<br />

plastic, covered with an equally<br />

new and remarkable flexible<br />

paint.<br />

It could be the answer to the<br />

tiny dings and dents of everyday<br />

parking that can rapidly age a car.<br />

And its driver.<br />

Print advertisement<br />

Could an<br />

affordable, massproduced,<br />

ding-proof car like this<br />

be put on the road soon?<br />

Ask the people in <strong>GE</strong> Plastics<br />

and the answer will be a very<br />

definite “yes”.<br />

But our ability to help car<br />

makers find new answers to old<br />

problems is far from confined to<br />

plastics.<br />

At <strong>GE</strong>, we have some 34,000<br />

exceptionally talented engineers<br />

and scientists. Some of whom<br />

lead the world in such areas as<br />

lighting, sensors and controls,<br />

electric motors, factory automation,<br />

and, of course, plastics.<br />

(Which might explain why,<br />

year after year, <strong>GE</strong> is awarded<br />

more U.S. patents than any other<br />

company in the world.)<br />

There is a group in<br />

<strong>GE</strong> Lighting, for instance, who<br />

have a bright idea that could<br />

mean the end of the road for<br />

conventional headlights.<br />

Plus others, in <strong>GE</strong> Fanuc<br />

Automation, who have built<br />

assembly lines that can predict<br />

problems. So you can fix them<br />

before they happen.<br />

And there are people in<br />

<strong>GE</strong> Motors, who are working on<br />

something that could liberate<br />

designers even further. A way to<br />

move the air conditioner to a<br />

different part of the car.<br />

If you’re a car maker, or<br />

supplier, and you’re interested<br />

in exploring any of these areas, or<br />

in having us become part of a<br />

team to develop advanced ideas<br />

of your own, just call <strong>GE</strong> Automotive,<br />

at (313) 965-7775.<br />

And put our minds to work.<br />

The print advertising<br />

guidelines (pages 02<br />

to 05) apply to outdoor<br />

advertising.<br />

Whenever possible,<br />

outdoor advertising<br />

should relate to the<br />

print or broadcast<br />

advertising used in<br />

the locality by using<br />

the same or similar<br />

headlines and images.<br />

In the example of<br />

a billboard in Detroit<br />

shown at the left, the<br />

image and headline<br />

were being used in<br />

a print advertisement<br />

appearing in automotive<br />

trade magazines.<br />
