Missing information

There are at least two former plants not listed: (1) The Oshawa Fabrication Plant (aka "North Plant"), which included - south to north - two metal stampings plants, an electrical components (wiring harnesses and radios) plant, a plastics plant (which at one point had 65 injection molding machines with the largest tonnage in Canada, if I recall correctly) and the radiator plant, all in one "building" located at William and Ritson; and (2) the CKD (Complete Knock Down) plant where parts were partially assembled and crated for shipment to overseas plants, located at William and Division (or possibly Kenneth). Back in the 70s I worked at GM in the North Plant and briefly had some accounting responsibilities for some of the CKD plant projects. (CKD got it's name because at one time they took finished cars and partially disassembled them for overseas shipment.) There was also a Trim Plant in Windsor that is not listed. I'd add these myself, but it would probably be considered original research.72.138.251.66 (talk) 22:34, 15 March 2009 (UTC)

Didn't the north plant get spun off to Delphi? I seem to recall a buddy who transferred back to the main plant when that happened. The Delphi article doesn't list plants, it probably should be listed here. [And now that I think about it, it was maybe a company called Peregrine that bought it] Can you find some old newspaper articles on-line? As long as you have a source, add away.

And there is a trim plant listed for Windsor as I write this. It's a red-link, but it seems to be in the table.

Any sources you can find would be helpful to flesh things out! Franamax (talk) 08:12, 16 March 2009 (UTC)

Assessment

I raised the article's "class" rating to C today, which might be a bit generous but it's not far off. PKT(alk) 14:22, 20 November 2009 (UTC)
