The last automobile assembly plant in California closed years ago.

I recall when Ford opened an assembly plant in Pico Rivera in the 1950's, and I once owned a 1973 Ford LTD that was made there.

Ah, yes, good ole Pico Rivera, where I grew up. I remember the Santa Fe trains with the car chassis stacked high on flat cars leading into the plant. T-Birds built there , too.
