Now that's something you don't hear about often.
How many hours did it take them to build your car Mark?

Nice Mark, Congrats, Do you own that chevy dealership yet? And can I get a discount?

Chuck, on the Museum Display you have to pick-up your VETTE and it would be another week and then I would have to go back and get it--I was alittle worried about trailering it home (never know how the weather might be) Plus you still have to pay for the shipping from Chevrolet ($800.00). The Museum Vettes really were nice on Display and some of the owners were there picking them up.
Guys, you can't BELIEVE how NICE the Assembly Workers were to my SON & I -- REALLY they were THANKING us for Buying the Vette. When our Vette met the Chassis & Drivetrain and everything was hooked up, the Test Worker ran over and got me so I could be the first person to start it. When I drove it off the assembly line the man said "Look at the Odometer which said 0 -- you will never see that again!!"
Great Experience and we felt SPECIAL.

Rick, it takes (3) 8 HOUR SHIFTS to build a VETTE. The line goes Really SLOW -- the guide said it is all THE BEST WORKERS from the Other Plants that work there. A class of kids were making the tour with their teacher and she pointed out the Shiny BLUE VETTE!! She told her class that if they did their Best in school then someday they would be fortunate to have cars like these.

The museum delivery package is cool ? Do they affix a plaque in the door jamb area with your name on it?

Mark,

I gotta wonder if they will let us watch the new Camaro being built in the same way.... You know BG might not be a bad place to produce a new RWD car like the '09 Camaro.

Nice.

Awesome, that is my dream to tour the plant as my new Vette is being built. Great choice of color too.
