Default Re: Would this car be considerd a COPO

I don't know about other plants, but Oshawa was all one unit. There was no separate Fisher body side. There were two bodyshops, A and B body. The bodies were scheduled and built then sent to the paint shop. They came back to their respective sides of the plant in the general assembly area. Eventually the bodies met the chassis' at the marriage station. The chassis had also been scheduled to be built and meet the body at the same time. Beyond Fisher on blueprints, there was really no connection with Fisher. As a tool and die maker I worked in the bodyshop, General Assembly, or where ever I was needed. The Doraville plant in Atlanta seemed to of a similar setup.
