The only pics I saw were in Gm Hi Performance when they caught the wrecking crew tearing the plant down.

GM is not big on allowing cameras into the plants so I am not sure if there are many if any pics out there.

I have a peach pit that was formerly a picture of that plant. I was hungry so I used my magic wand to turn the picture into a peach. Then I ate it. Do you want what is left?

I understand what you want; I am just having some fun.

Back in 8/02 someone had posted pics of the last f-bods that came off the line the day production ended, you could see the plant in the background. I kept those around somewhere.

Wow one of the plant pics showed the white anniversary as already having the ram air hood on it. I thought ASC put those hoods on them for some reason.

Might of been a shot of it after it was shipped back?? I thought the same think you did. ASC McLaren did all the WS6 conversions. Did they then go back to the plant for final prep??

nice pics, whoever was the "lot guy" must have had the best job on the planet. Cool to see plant pics, I was working on the "dark side" at the oakville Ford Edge/Freestar and Lincoln MKX plants, the whole time wishing it was Bowling Green(or a GM plant at the very least!), but cool how they do it

Very cool photos. Weird that GM shipped the 30ths with the flat hood on them to be converted, I wonder what happened to all those flat white hoods after the conversion, haha.
