Dodge Plant workers from 1965

[65dartcharger]

Is it anyone out there who nows of some guy or guys who used works at the Hamtramck or Los Angeles plant in 1964 - 1966? I'm also looking for pictures from the assembly line and during the time the car was built.

Any help would gladly be appriciated

are you trying to figure out who it was that stuck a sandwich in your door? Like a disgruntaled employee on a monday back in 1965 when he was mad at his boss?

cuz i heard that kinda thing can and has happened!

I've heard even stranger stuff about pre-1980 Ferraris. You can find trash, food, and even porno drawings inside the body panels of them. It seems that they were built by little Italian communists who despised the people who could afford to buy one.

Well I could understand with ferreri.. they are hand built from front to back and things like that would be funny but i heard of pissed of workers stuffing hate notes into doorjams in fenders and the sandwich thing and tools.. i heard a friends dad found a tool in a car he was restoring..

someone here on FABO once did a search on his car and found out why there was a hole in his dash.. it used to be a cop car and it was a bullet hole..

Cool huh?

but plant pictures.. meh.. i think those would be hard to come across..
All the luck tho.

Cerwin! That was a good one. Actually I found a Lucky Strike package in my door and the car has never been apart. But no, I'm not gonna kick someones but.

I need the to know exactly how the cars were put together on the assembly line in 65. The resto on my DartCharger will be an OEM style. Just NOS or assembly line parts.

I have talked with several guys on how they were put together but I need more info to make my resto correct. Also there is hard to know how the parts looked when they arrived from the supplier. Sometimes they was just steel because they were going into production as soon as they arrived . Sometime they were painted black so they didn't rust too much because they was going to be stored in a storage outside with no heat. And the thin black paint was to keep the rust away.

So these old techniques is important to know to make a restoration correct.

I think Frank Badalson found some trash under his carpet in his 1970 HemiCuda!

You'll never know what you might found when you tear a car apart!
