Default Corvette Plant

Just received my build sheet from my dealer and it shows my car built on April 29,2016 but does not show time. How many shifts run at Bowling Green plant? Anyway to find time built?

It takes a couple days, I think, to complete a car so are you wanting to know the time it rolled off the line? Not sure there is a way to determine this but as long as it wasn't at 7 am on Monday or 5 pm on Friday you should be OK.

Last I heard, they were running one ten-hour shift daily building about 17 per hour.
