For the record, post 35 was by me. While it does show assembly at Van Nuys, the report text relating to front sheetmetal installation says:
Quote:
Both plants used similar processes for front sheet metal installation, although it was done in different locations. At Van Nuys, this was done on the Trim Line with the body in an overhead carrier. At Norwood, this was done on the Final Line after body drop.
At the time of posting, I wondered if the fender extension markings may have been relevant to the build details of the front end, perhaps relating to grille/headlight type, etc. and pertaining to the general process, rather than the location in which it was done.
Perhaps posting that was unnecessary, in which case please disregard and focus positively on gathering more data points.
