Lead Photo

Picture undated, but the caption reads: One of the most dramatic points in the automobile assembly process at the new General Motors plant in Fremont, Calif., is the “body drop” station on the final assembly line - onto their matching chassis which have been assembled in another area of the plant. Linking together all production departments throughout the two-million square foot facility, an electronic “broadcasting” system assures that the correct parts and accessories for a given car will arrive at the proper place at exactly the right time.

Today’s photo comes from the albums of FremontFlickr.

Be sure to look at all of FremontFlickr’s photos and our other albums. And if you would like to recommend your favorite photo with a GM car or truck in it, put it up on Flickr and tag it with “gmfyi.”
