I drove by that plant last month. Talk about gigantic! The only other bigger plant that I've personally seen, is the Coors beer plant in Denver...Lordstown is where they used to build the Firebird.

Only for '67-'69. Lordstown Assembly has produced everything from cars to vans. They also assembled the "Toyota" Cavalier...

I sent an e mail to go.

I am only about 40 min away.

I was there when they had the open house when it was new in 1966. I had a great uncle who was a retired big shot with GMC. I still have a yard stick that they gave out with the date.

I can just barely remember seing cars built and how big it was. I had to dig up info on what was built as I was too youg to know. It was Impalas in 1966.

This also was the only plant to build the Vega.

Plans are to build the new Cruise + G5 replacment and the new RWD Alpha there in the near future. GM has just anouncxed the small RWD caddy is still in the works. The Alpha should bring us more RWD cars too.
