Nice pics. Must have been taken on a Sunday as no one was working.
Makes the new assembly plant look even better. Now I can see why they moved.

thanks for posting these, they are great. I saved all of them and have them running as a screen saver.

This series of pictures has been around a while. They were taken at St. Louis in December 1980 (1981 production). The speculation has always been who took them and when. Cameras were not allowed in the plant. Frame stencils show December dates; no employees are pictured; the line appears to be stopped. My guess is Christmas break 1980 and taken by a security guard, but that's only my amateur attempt to play Sherlock Holmes.

#23 is proof two-toned cars were produced at St. Louis.
