[QUOTE="AxeZ06, post: 182615, member: 4506"] The 1st thing to happen in 'assembly' (as soon as the first part hits the line) is the build tag being attached to the unit. All necessary parts are ready to go (as someone said - JIT....((just in time)) works fine). At 55 - 60 per hour, it takes about 2.5 - 3 days from start to finish. (ford plant I worked at) If they spit out 30 -40 Corvettes an hour, I'm going to guess 3-4 days from start to finish. There's only so many miles of assembly line in any given plant.......there's nowhere else the unit can go, unless major repair........but even those are taken care of asap. I'm going out on a limb here, but, if any car spent 10 weeks in assembly, it would cost at least 10X what they cost now. [/QUOTE]
