How do you know? Have you heard of vins from anyone with a vert order?
Mark Riel reported after going through all 90 vins

SOmeone point out, quite accurately, that they started the HTC's but it takes 31 hours to build a car. We shouldn't see a HTC vin until tomorrow (today)
That makes sense so those VIN's maybe from friday cars

What I meant was that they started the verts yesterday, but they won't be finished until today so we'll see those vert vins in tomorrows report.

Oh OH!!!!!
6801 > 6886 = 86
I was thinking that if they did add Verts to the mix they WOULD slow the line down, but this???

When they restarted they did so VERY slowly. Even though they had built CTF's for 6 weeks.
I can only assume that they would do the same with the verts and a quarter of the cars left to build are verts. A reliable source said they did work 10 hours.

By the numbers, it looks like they were "there" for 10 hours...

Oh man...it's not looking good.
Surely that second shift will begin soon! It's not looking good for those of us waiting on 2021s.

If I were you I'd bank on 21's starting January at the earliest
Just spoke to GM Order management, my HTC TPW got pushed back a week to August 31.

No verts came off the line yesterday. Parts shortage?? If they did indeed work 10 hours then they must still be doing CTF HTC's or .....

Hopefully Mark Reil will keep us up to date
Yes, seems like a very reliable source.

So I was wrong in the time it takes to build a C8. It takes 2.5 8 hour shifts according to Corvetteblogger. So they did apparently start the verts on Monday and we should see them off the line today
