Re: Z code / Fremont, CA Assembly Plant

Chevy built trucks at Van Nuys until sometime around 1962. I have a friend with a '55 second series, and it was built at Van Nuys. Van Nuys built Chevy trucks only, but when Fremont opened, it built Chevy's and GMC's. My '67 is a Fremont truck. Van Nuys was a Chevrolet plant, Fremont was B-O-P (Buick, Olds, Pontiac), even though a lot of Chevy A-bodies were built there. That was before GMAD!
