Default Seq #91 Vin 135 " And I Helped "

Just returned from BG. Watched my 07 Convert be built on Mon PM and early Tues AM. Was able to help some too. Got up close and personal on the assy line in alot of places. Got to bolt a few parts on, sign and date my car in some places that only I know, did the first start, rode along on the DVD test and water test. It was a blast!!!!



Now I have to wait for my car to be shipped back to CA. I have a feeling that the wait will seem like years....:

Stan, the difference in sequence #'s between your car and the gregsnap car is 7 and the VIN difference is 6. That's because the XLR is included when sequence #'s are assigned, but each line has its own VIN.

Default Stray Dog... I'm Sure I saw your car...

I'm "Sure" I saw your car... It was the one that was towed off the line as a no start .....

Just joking.... I am sure I saw it. I had to wait on the end of the line after mine was done so they could replace the XM Radio Module ( they installed 18 or so of the 06 versions before they found the problem and changed the supply ). While I was waiting, at least 10 cars came off the line. I am sure yours was one of them. They ALL looked Great!!! Wish I could have taken them all home...
