This is Holidays time, so take a look at the 45 minutes video of the full, I mean full, assembly of our favorite car. ENJOY...

Sorry if it's a repost, but I have'nt seen any post of this video from months and months. You will all see what goes in and all the engeering required to build your car. Again Enjoy. 45 minutes video.

WATCH VIDEO @ http://www.camaro5.com/full-camaro-u...nd-of-the-line




Here are some interesting tidbits :

• Each Camaro takes 18 hours of assembly time
• There are 734 robots doing the nearly 5,000 spot welds needed to create the body shell for each Camaro Coupe.
• In order to get to the paint shop the Camaro body has to be transported on a bridge over a city street where it is painted and then shipped back across the bridge to the trim area for final detailing.
• One Camaro rolls off the assembly line approximately every minute.
• The Camaro engine is produced at a different plant and has to be shipped approximately 2 hours to the assembly line where it finally meets the Camaro.

I'll be watching this later tonight... Thanks for sharing...

Thank you sooo much...I had never seen this before. One of the best christmas presents i got.

good stuff!

I'm very happy you appreciated it soooo much. Merry Christmas....

pretty cool man, i actually watched all 45minutes....i'm ate up:sm0:

Thanks for the link. Getting ready to watch it now. I'd like to take a tour of the plant someday. :D

Thanks for posting this again! I just finished watching it. Brings back memories from pre ordering to the first drive to now. Amazing. Love this car.

Thanks for posting. It was a great video. More details than the plant tour.
Thanks again. Gerry

I took the tour this Summer- It took me over 2 hours going at a slow pace. Thanks GM.
Great experience.

I was at Oshawa also, but we did'nt have the chance too see all the robots working sheet metal and the paint section. No mans land.
But we saw all the assembly work from the pre-painting guys working from their white mits and then from the car coming out of the paint shop. We where so close thet we could even talk with some employees right from the line.

This was great! I would have loved to see more detail, like putting on the XM antenna and putting in the carpeting. Also I thought that a person actually got in the trunk to for the leak test.

Talk about getting close. Again, wonderful experience.

Are you telling me only 5 count them FIVE bolts hold the drive assembly to the car?? 3 in the front and 2 in the rear?

Awesome video :thumbsup:

thats wild..

Thank You for posting this

you could give me props for posting this at least.......

Thank you for posting, enjoyed. Got to get up to Canada for a factory tour one fine day.

Nice.
I actually bought the DVD from The History Channel last year when it went on sale.

Nice never seen it

I like how at the beginning it says "THE ultimate muscle car" not "AN ultimate muscle car"

Can't seem to get it to load, is the link still working?

Admin just posted this video on the Home Page. Thanks.

Anyone else notice he kept calling it a 2100 Camaro?

So, is the ZL1 engine also assembled in St. Catharines? I thought i read that the CTS-V engine is assembled in Mexico...

Would anyone know?

Is this the same as the one posted last year? Link won't work for me either. Is it cuz I'm using an iPad and not a comp?

I have see this on TV before! It's a great show. Ultimate Factories also did my dads factory, Peterbilt.

Looks like this one is branded as Mega Factories but it was originally aired as Ultimate Factories.

Awesome film. Unbelieveable technology!

Amazing Video, enjoyed every moment. Thank you for posting this up :D

Complete Badassery!!!!

If you're in the mood for Camaro videos then here's another

Im not even done watching this but its very interesting! Seeing the robots work is more entertaining than I would have ever thought. Plus how many can say they have seen how their car was made? Thanks for sharing!

its on youtube in HD if anyone wants to see it

Gonna watch this

On each side. The front cradle takes 6 bolts (3 on each side) and the rear cradle takes 4 bolts (two on each side). There are 4 guys that do this not two.

Me too! Have watched it several times since.

I bought the DVD @ Amazon.com.......................
