[quote=John Hinckley (29964);583050]Yes, all Chevrolet plants used the same fixture to install the pedal pads. I worked at Willow Run, Flint Assembly, Flint Pilot Line, Chevrolet Engineering, Norwood, Lordstown, and St. Louis-Corvette, with shorter launch stints at Van Nuys, Tarrytown, Janesville, and St. Louis-Passenger.[/quote Hi John, what years were you at St Louis and what did you do there, do you have any assy line photos that you could share Thanks, sorry for the third degree Phil 8063

Phil -

I was at Corvette in '67-'68; my Chevrolet Production Engineering Group designed, built, installed, and de-bugged all of the Corvette assembly tooling, and managed the technical portion of new model launches.

If I knew then what I'd be doing now, I'd have taken my own photos; GM managed to lose about 95% of the St. Louis-Corvette 1960's photo negatives years ago when they disbanded GM Photographic, outsourced that work to a third party, then brought the work back in-house several years later.
