Welcome to the Spot!

That's pretty cool, Todd! Welcome!

How much are you allowed to tell us about the going-ons of the plant? I'm sure there are restrictions, but can we ask questions, and have you either respond or just indicate that you can't talk about whatever?

Let's see... 15 years would put you there just a bit before Saturn started selling the s-series, but probably not quite since they opened the plant?

Hey, welcome to the Spot. Glad to see an employee of the Saturn community here.

Welcome to the Spot Todd!

I've been there since May 1 1990

I was there well before the official start of production, the "first official production vehicle" (actually #235)driven by Roger Smith was built while I was there.

Employee #1237 upon my start and am #734 today. Ask me anything you want....if I can't answer it I'll tell you that and I will also do my best to dispel or confirm any rumors. And there are plenty to go around.....

I have worked everywhere on site with exception to Vehicle Interior Systems and Powertrain as well as taught many many classes in the early 90's

Have a great day !

hmmm.... question for 'da man.

oh, here's one - know anything about the experimental SL3 from way back when?

Todd · 11-01-2005, 05:58 PM

The SL-3 was a SL-2 with a SC front end (pop-up lts)

We made about 4 or 5 of them in house, the guys also made a Saturn-Camino....pretty cool

Later..............Todd
