Cars still being inspected, number could rise
Supposedly, those remade orders will be prioritized when production lines reopen this week.
The scrappage number could increase. There were Corvettes parked outside the facility for shipping that are still being checked for damage.
A skeleton crew of 90 skilled workers from UAW Local 2164 has stayed on the job since the weather disturbance, out of 1,200 total line workers. GM quickly moved people and resources from facilities as far away as Detroit to help rebuild, so GM's intention to begin the process of making Bowling Green fully operational on Monday, December 20 will continue as planned. A "cadenced return" will ramp up the headcount for four days, with the whole workforce scheduled to be back on Thursday, December 23.

Man those are sweet cars.
Climate change gods wreaking havoc on evil carbon spewing automobiles.....
I’ll give $20 for one headed to scrappage and would even show up there with my trailer to pick it up.
Yeah it’s mindblowing to me that Corvettes have gone mid-engine, wish I could afford one.
Ok you get a gear shift knob or 5 lug nuts. Your choice.
—” a gear shift knob “
???
Perhaps a paddle, left or right?
I like her red calipers.
Nonsense. They just fix ‘em up a bit and sell them in Mexico.
I’ve been in that plant. Small, cramped and tight. It would not take much to shut it down.
The new mid engine ones are a bore and ruined the name. Now it’s just another carbon copy of any of a dozen other mid engine cars from Europe.
They ruined it.
If they were electric then they would have caught fire and burned everything after being banged around.
Those shorts are painted on, I swear.

I’m still,rooting for climate change
First its effing cold where I am right now
And two, if it kills just one socialist, its worth it
Scrap them instead of refurbish them and sell them at a discount? What kind of business sense is that? Or is insurance taking the hit?
Indeed they did, nothing distinctive about it at all anymore. Looks like another eurotrash pos. Wouldn’t buy ant vette newer than 2013.
“Man those are sweet cars”.
Very Italian looking.
