Keith, GREAT photos of Pontiac MI Assembly & adjoining Fisher Body. Those are keepers! Thanks!

Ragtop, good comments. Interesting you mention the painting of body at one location and the hood/fenders at an assembly plant, possibly far away. I've thought about that and find it interesting that they could paint from two different batches and have an exact match. See

for an article I found to be quite interesting and it mentions the paint matching as a problem. It also gives a good description of the GM relationship with Fisher Body. I inserted my comments and I'm open to your thoughts.
