Yes, that's the mold for the GT front bumper. The standard front bumper has its own mold. It's a conventional mold, there's nothing fancy going on here. I may have been in trouble if I had shown this in 2006. Thanks to everyone for their support of the Vibe and the people who built them. My plan for...

I thought I read somewhere that it was sold to someone in Fremont.

I think the NUMMI Team Store is about to close in a few weeks.I've also heard it's pretty stripped out.At this point we(hourly tm's) do not have "transfer" rights with Toyota or GM.I guess if anyone wants to move, they have to apply for a job at that plant like everyone else.Thanks to ever...

Yea, there were alot of 9 and 10hr days as well as two to three Saturdays a month.Lately, we've sorta been been plugging away, business as ususal.

The Vibes and Corollas are built on the same line. One after another.The person at whatever workstation may have a box of Corolla horns on the left and a box of Vibe horns on the right. Whatever the manifest hanging on the car says, that's what you grab and put on.

vibebuilder

Is this the bar you're refering to?

vibebuilder

We built them here at NUMMI a few years back. They were right-hand drive and were exported to Japan and probably other countries. I'm not sure exactly where.We don't build them anymore.

vibebuilder

FYI, if anyone cares...That "30" represents the day of the month this car was built and on what shift. I'm going to guess January in this case. The month is on your Cert. label in the drivers door jam.I'm not sure about the color. Red=day shift, Blk=night shift or vise versa.

vibebuilder

Oh come on!!! #9!!! What's wrong with a B210!!! lol

vibebuilder

No I don't drive one. Sorry. Not that there is anything wrong with them, it's just that my personal situation does not allow for another car.

Quote, originally posted by engineertwin2 Â»I don't see this happening anytime soon....and I hope you are right. I had heard a while back that what GM had learned from NUMMI was applied at a GM plant. I think it's called Saturn.

There she is! Hey, I've seen you before! lolFinally some official pictures.

Wow, the leather interior is pretty slick. I didn't know these things came with leather.

So the program aired on Feburary 2 2007.And the car rolled off the assembly line the day before ?Do they give the actual cars away or do you get a Gift Certificate and pic one up from a local dealer?

vibebuilder

Quote, originally posted by ZubenElGenubi Â»Seriously, they're talking about a January release? And they're still gonna call it an oh-nine? Frankly, I'm concerned about this. Remember, this was originally supposed to be upgraded in 2008, meaning you'd see it late 2007. Unless Pontiac is bucking the ...

It bothers me when I see people out in front of the factory cleaning, painting, resoding the grass, etc.It's just like they're cleaning and detailing a car... right before the "For Sale" sign goes up.

Quote, originally posted by PhillyVibeGT Â» 2b. If we have an auto window "down" why not an auto "up"? You know, I was in a few Toyota's in Japan and all of them had Auto UP windows and / or Auto Close sunroofs.I believe there are just as many idiots in Japan as there are in the ...

I think the first pilot vehicles will be built in June or July of this year.SOP (start of production) is around the end of January 2008.

It ain't going to look like that "Mike Decker" pic.

vibebuilder

Looking at the pics and reading the comments it appears the the Vibe fits right over it.My concern is with a much smaller and lower car. The small ramp idea is good though. I guess some stacked plywood planks/ramps on either side should help. The specs say 4-3/4" minimum pad height. That's just...

vibebuilder

ok, it's been almost a year, do you have a long term report for us?lolHow that lift been?

Now hang on, Celica's are pretty cool, right?... and the Corolla and Vibe are on the Celica platform. So relax, y'all are driving Celica Wagons.

Don't get too excited. I'm just an employee. I maintain the plastic molds in the Plastics department. We make the upper and lower dash boards and the front and rear bumpers. The stamping department makes just about all the panels used to build the car. Hood, roof, floor, doors, lift-gate, etc. All t...
