Description
(Original Caption) General Motors' new experimental gas turbine passenger car, the Firebird II, was shown publicly for the first time at the GM Motorama of 1956 in New York, January 19-24, 1956. A newly developed regenerator, or heat exchanger, which recaptures heat and uses it to raise the temperature of intake air, is the key factor in the car's improved economy of operation. This is a research car and will not be put into production.
