VIDEO 2022 GT500 being built on assembly line

Not me, nor my car, but cool video of a guy watching his car being built & his Dad signing the car under the tail lights. Looks like having UAW ties definitely can get you some perks.

Awesome and thanks for sharing.

One question though, I thought only GT500s would be produced on one assembly line? At the 5:00 min mark there is a convertible being built behind this guy's GT500.

So I assume any version of Mustang is built in no particular order?

All Mustangs are built on same line. Just different parts, obviously. Specific order is preset for correct parts but as for what car is designated when is dependent on the factory scheduling system. My car was scheduled to be built on 6/13, however details as to that date was published weeks earlier in mid May.

The only GT500 specific line is Romeo Niche Line where they make the GT500 engine that is later transported to Flat Rock.

Yes all same assembly line. They just don’t do 2 verts back to back but it was cool to see in person.
Pretty sure I know the car and he’s a member here.

I’m loving the ‘22 I got to see built in June!

James,
Why no verts back to back?

Takes to long for the top fitting and extra steps, was told it slows the line down.

@biminiLX is correct. That is my car and my Mom and Dad were present the day it went down the line. It was truly an amazing experience to have my Dad be a part of.

Oh wow, so YOU'RE the owner! What an awesome experience you had, as I said above (not knowing it was YOUR car).

Yessir! It certainly was an experience I won't ever forget.
