I worked a Mack Trucks assemble plant in Allentown and Macungie for over 30 years... IN the assembly prossess all sub assemble areas Engine, Cab seats, frames ect. .were loaded with line sequence numbers and  the  number of assemblied units for that day ... let alone inspection markers .. Then you had the times of absenteesism and utility men filling in for them days or the times he was ata head call or at the dispensary.. The  numeral locations were changed   ... Now let's not even talk about the Grab A$$ where dubuis notes were  writen in big block letters  to be witnessed buy ALL and  the unsuspecting  person...  I was on the UAW Cap Concil and got to the Balt GM plant in 71 there were building the  1972 model at the time.... there were buid sheets and line sequence numbers all over the sub assemblies B-4 finial assembly Just wish  I would have paid more attention to those kind of details.   TO soon Old to late smart !!! ----- Original Message ----- From: Dale McIntosh To: 'The Chevelle Mailing List' Sent: Monday, October 20, 2003 6:35 PM Subject: RE: [Chevelle-list] Factory inspection markings I remember Peter Klute (Legendary Motor Cars) chuckling about "correct" markings.  They were made by whoever was assembling that portion that day and may or may not have anything to do with the car.  He found a tic-tac-toe game on one firewall...guess the line was slow that day.   Dale I'm not sure I agree with that. It was my understanding the inspection marks were made to let evryone know pieces were installed, adjusted, tightened. Not to identify parts. Pete Geurds 64 Chevelle(s)
