Briggs stadium cost 75 cents for a kid to see Dettoit Tigers in 19 55. I took a steet car with friends to see a game. Remember it well.
American workers knew how to build cars then they moved evetything to china and put american workers into poverty. I am 85 now. Remember detroit in golden years
Minimum wage yes. Fair wages? Not so much.
Built the bodies of cars. Tore down the bodies of the workers?
Zephyr became a compact Mercury in the 1970s . Anyone remember when this was? It was mechanically a twin of the Ford Fairmont.
my Mother left teaching and worked quality control for Briggs during world war 2, she enjoyed it, when the boys came back from the war she got bumped to assembly, working the line was a lack of accomplishment at the end of the day, causing her to return to teaching. She taught 36 years in the Flint, School system.
This story is exactly what is still happening in 2026. All the goodies rise to the top 1 or 2 percent. Disgusting Amerikkka.
Blaha Blaha Blaha too many wasted words and so much political crap. Somebody involved with this script flunked writing 101.
Just a piece of trivia I read years ago… There was a legendary world class weightlifter from Dearborn named Norbert Schemansky. He competed at the highest levels for years, winning four Olympic medals, and set 24 world records. Largely unknown in the US, as American interest at the time in the sport was paltry, he was far more famous in Russia, a big weight lifting country, and is revered there to this day.
Story goes that he was working at a Briggs factory, and asked for time off to train to compete in the Olympics. His foreman told him that he could have all the time off that he wanted, as he was fired. Schemansky promptly quit instead, trained and went to the Helsinki Olympics, where he won the Gold for the US.
Once he returned, Norb was offered his job back at Briggs, but being a proud man, Norb declined Briggs’ offer to return after he won the gold. He finally retired from competition in 1972 after 26 years, and worked for the City of Dearborn as a civil engineer.
He died in Dearborn September 7, 2016 age of 92.
The descendants are still around. I worked with one, and they're doing well.
Let's see a presentation on L.A. Young Spring and Wire Co., Detroit.
