No. All the 53's (300 of 'em) were hand built in Mich. The St Louis plant started the '54 production year. Yes, the two-tones were done (except a couple as I have read) in BG. I think it was in June of '81 or '82 that production started in BG and Vettes were built simu at both plants during that month and the following month SL closed. Yes about two-tones. The BG plant had better paint capabilities/facilities but a few test cars (two-tone) WERE done at SL. This is what I have read.

Awesome history on the only "All American Sports Car", like to have one of each :thumb Thanks for the history lesson, would have been :cool to have been involved in it then:W
