Found a period picture of the Fremont,CA GM Assembly Plant dated 8/72 for those that might be interested. There have been a lot of changes there since then.

Re: Z code / Fremont, CA Assembly Plant
Thanks for sharing SS Tim. Great info and photos. A better and simplier time in the Bay Area. Today that same stretch of freeway is 4 lanes in each direction and traffic is averaging about 75 mph ( 10 mph over speed limit).

Re: Z code / Fremont, CA Assembly Plant
Glad everyone like the picture and the link. Was just looking for some information, found the picture and shared it on a whim. Maybe some other period assembly plant pictures will surface as a result. If you have some post them up.
