On second thought, while we don't call them a levee here in this part of Canada... "they drove a Chevy to the levee". So that brings a trigger that Louis Chevrolet of early automobile racing fame teamed up with William Durant to form the Chevrolet Motor Car Company in Detroit, in 1911. That goes back a day or two.

And Durant motors from on or about 1921 - 1931, and the depression cooked that goose and many others.
