I drove past the old plant on Friday and made up my mind to stop and get some pictures of it if I can sometime later this year. Its kinda sad looking, everything empty looking. Also a lot of construction right at the Wixom rd exit so its a little hard to get around. This is what I used to see drivin...

Thanks Art, yes this makes sense to me. My knowledge of Wixom in the 60's is only what can find on the web. I think it was one of, if not the largest assy plant Ford had. So can I read the stamping plants A B C D E in the respective order you listed? (just curious you know :mrgreen: ) I do believe W...
