chinese workers are far more efficient.

Well sure, at a dollar a day, (if that) it's easy to be efficient , but slaves beat em hands down. You, my friend win the golden cookie!

Ha ha 1:40 guy wearing a FORD shirt . No seriously I worked there briefly , then in and out as a truck driver during the Peregrine days and Lear till the end . To bad as it was a great place , with great people . At least my mom retired from their before its demise .

the good seats were GM made !, the lear seats were the "cheap seats" :P lear started skimping on materials & quality, the lear seats that hyundai used did not even hold up as well as the ones made in korea by dae won kang hup, and those are not that good either ! the GM seats that were in the cadillacs that were exported to korea for daewoo had no issues with them at all,unlike newer lear made models :(

I worked there from '65 to '80, and as you say, have great memories of wonderful friends and a very important part of my life.  Thanks for the tangible keepsake.

God Bless!

I made a tribute video to this old plant and it's employees where I spent 15 years of my working life. Hope you enjoy it!
