Did you know...?

From 1968 to 1998, the Holley Performance Products company, best known as a carburetor manufacturer but also the owner of a bunch of other automotive parts makers, was owned by Colt Industries?

Yeah, that Colt. They had a bunch of non-gun businesses in the '60s and '70s, like Pratt & Whitney Machine Tool (not to be confused with Pratt & Whitney the aircraft engine builder.)
