I wonder if/when the Lakewood plant stopped building trucks. I have never been there; by the time I started traveling the plants building C/K trucks were Flint, Pontiac, Oshawa, St Louis and Janesville. I think Arlington and Ft Wayne came later, with the GMT400 versions.

I have a bigger copy HERE you can read it easier, better quality

I don't know when It quit trucks. I know Grandad's, '62 c10 and his 78 c20 were built there as well as my dads 77 c10. My uncle worked there his whole career, but he died years ago so that info is lost.

I think the plant now does something with sheet metal. IIRC the sign out front changed from assembly years ago to now say "Sheet metal Fabrication" or something like that.
