(Please Agree or disagree)

8.The VIN# and the computer lock for CFA (with the specific option content) was partially assigned based upon down line parts availability.

Disagree.
The VIN was assigned right as the body was received by Fisher.
If the parts were not available, the body wouldn't have been built.

10 The order that the bodies were staged on the Chevrolet side was random prior to the assignment of the VIN and final assembly computer build lock.

No, the VIN was assigned first and then the cars bodies went into the body bank. The six lanes of the body bank were organized by option (mainly AC, RS, hi-po, and regular). The body bank balanced the assembly line according to option content of the car. Certain stations take more time than others. You didn't want 2 rally sports, etc, in a row. Still true today.

Other than that, looks mostly correct.
