Awesome video, thank you !!

I have always been interested in the vehicle assembly line process and it is amazing how the 'line' and the process has evolved over the years, from when I was in Scouts and we visited a [former] assembly plant in South Gate, CA in the early 1960's. There was only one straight line and no body components dropping down from the 'overhead'.

I would love to take a first-hand tour of this plant in MI.

Great video! I heard prior to Sept. 11th you could actually follow your vehicle down the line which would had be very interesting to say the least

Always cool to see the factory. Thanks for posting it.

Here is another video I found a few months back of a factory tour if anyone's interested.
