Challenger assembly line pictures
« on: July 13, 2009 - 11:23:38 AM »
Just in case you've never been IN the Brampton plant, here are a few pictures taken on a cell phone to give you a bit of an idea of what it's like.

PS: I have no idea who shot these pictures.

That is cool.  I have seen several assembly plants and places that put the trucks and cars put together.  I can understand why some things do not line up like they should.  Thanks for sharing the pics

Those are modern day pics. Back "in the day" , they might have been using a hammer to get parts to fit. 

I don't want to know...   :grinno:

Just hope I can catch up with one of my friends in southern IL and ask him about what they did when he was at the St Louis Mo plant building vehicles and bet it would be close on other plants as well.  I know the dealer called him several times and got changes made to vehicles that were built and the changes did not show up on the slips and on the cards either.
