Cool pictures! About two years ago I drove my 68 Bonneville wagon to the election polls. One of the campaign workers, 70 yr old woman, came over quickly and identified the car to the year and options. She worked for GM in Arlington, TX for three years. She was upset to the change of the union. Back in the day she told a story of how another worker that worked on the line had a heart attack and sat on the still moving line until break an hour later. Unfortunately he later died. Big difference from today where you cant even change your own light bulb and the line stops for any safety issue! She said she installed headliners.
