This is a must see.!!!!  :2thumbs:

The St. Louis Assembly Plant is being demolished.  :'(  Guys and gals, maybe a quarter to one third of our cars were built there over the decades. Very few of us ever saw the Plant in operation, let alone seen it since the muscle car heyday. Well here it is. The company doing the work - MCM, "Where Demolition Means Progress", has a site with great pictures and info.

Really sad on all kinds of levels. But it's great to see the Plant before it's all gone.

Thank you to idrivevintage at moparts.

Thanks for the link.  It is kinda sad to see them tear it down.  Was the plant in bad shape?

My 69 Bee was built there.  I was hoping to get a few pictures of the car their when she was finished.
