One hundred years is a long time. But over the past couple, several automakers have marked their centenaries, among them [Ford](http://www.autoblog.com/ford), [Alfa Romeo](http://www.autoblog.com/category/alfa-romeo), [Audi](http://www.autoblog.com/audi), [Bugatti](http://www.autoblog.com/bugatti)... and [Chevrolet](http://www.autoblog.com/chevrolet). The Bowtie brand has been marking its milestone birthday with a number of celebrations throughout the year, and doesn't plan on stopping any time soon.

Among the initiatives General Motors has planned for its mainstay brand is the launch of a documentary entitled *Chevy 100: An American Story* that debuts today at the Detroit Institute of Arts and will air coast-to-coast on Discovery's Velocity Channel on November 21.

The company will also erect a monument at Louis Chevrolet's birthplace of La Chaux-de-Fonds, Switzerland (who knew?), while Chevy owners in South Korea set the Guinness World Record for the creating the world's largest car logo out of their own automobiles.

As part of the celebrations, Chevrolet is also asking owners and enthusiasts like yourself to recall their favorite Chevy memories and experiences, which we invite you to share in our comments section. Don't forget to check out the history retrospective in the video (along with the press release) [after the jump](http://www.paklinks.com/2011/11/03/happy-100th-birthday-chevrolet/#continued).
