![]() BTW, I believe that is the original assembly line cap as the later ones had an additional molded ring around that center relief hole opening. Here's a shot of a couple caps from the garage. Newer style replacement cap on left, original assembly line piece on right. ![]() |

Good old FORTRAN (Formula Translation) and COBOL (Common Business Operating Language)...i Learned them both in 11th grade (flowcharts and all). I was really familiar with the IBM cards.
The one program that I "programmed through the cards" was to run the sequence of Fibonacci numbers to 100,000. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/headbang.gif[/img] Took me quite a while to get it to work...LOL

I was at the foundry and Fran was at the motor plant. Even though the plants were connected and I would be at QC meetings at the motor plant, I didn't know Fran. It's been a lot of years and I don't know axactly when Fran was at Tonawanda. I spent most of my time in operations (on the shop floor). Since I never worked at Norwood, I can't speak to how the IBM card got into a car. I did work at the St. Louis Corvette Assy plant when I was co-oping as a student. We used build sheets. The same info was on the punch cards though (the punch cards were the source for the eventual build sheet).
Sorry to steal this thread! |
