Welcome to “OverTheHillCarPeople.Com”
This site was developed for the thousands of retired/active folks who have dedicated their lives to the automotive industry. General Motors, ACDelco, SPO, Delphi, GMAC, Buick and many other GM divisions and their customers are prime examples of the automotive industry people we had in mind when this web site group was formed. Our goal is to provide a means for continued communication with these retired/active people and organizations. Many of us have been, to coin a company phrase, "crossed-fertilized," so we really have roots in more than one of the above organizations. Hopefully, our group will reunite everyone!
Historically, retired/active people tend to lose contact with many fellow employees and former employers for various reasons. Many of us have spent more time with these folks and companies than we did with our own families. So, in a sense we are a family of sorts!
Let’s keep in touch with our fellow General Motors automotive family members and create new relationships with other retired/active General Motors people by utilizing this web site. Our web site has received its 100,000th visitor and we now have members in 47 states and Puerto Rico! Retirees’ spouses, active employees and employers are welcome.
You can obtain additional information about Overthehillcarpeople.com in this Detroit Free Press newspaper article: "Ex-employee keeps GM's retirees connected"
Any suggestions you may have to improve this site will be most welcomed. Please direct all comments to the group by clicking on the blue "Contact Us Here" link listed below. Or, you can post your comments on the "Discussion Bulletin Board," by clicking on the blue link listed on the left side of this page.
Thank you for visiting our site and please come again!
