The history of Chrysler working all the way up to become on of the “Big Three ” Us Automakers , all began years ago in 1908 when Walter P. Chrysler started his pursuit by participating in a Chicago auto show. He was thirty three years old and was hired to work in the then dominate transport industry of the time -”the railways”. Despite his job, he favored automobiles more. When he witnessed a white colored Loco mobile, he was inclined to it and became indebted just so that he could own it. Then succeeded many months of puttering about the car and grasped later on how to drive this car.

He created the Desoto and Plymouth as well as Dodge and of course Chrysler. It required just five more years before Chrysler became a complete auto manufacturer and this in fact was a major milestone in the Chrysler history timeline. He was now big enough and confident enough to take on the big two auto giants: GM and Ford.

In World War II, the company was tasked in manufacturing military vehicles. The next landmark in the Chrysler history was Hemi V8 engine which was launched in 1951.
