My 67 Firebird was the 2,868TH Bird built in the last week of May at the LORDSTOWN, OHIO PLANT.
Very sad times are coming to America, these are indicators, all manufacturers are ramping down because sales are slumping, this is called an indicator, we have not recovered from the Depression. In 2003 or so auto sales also slumped, new cars were sitting on the lots for 1-2 years but manufacturing did not slow, instead they damanded the dealers take the cars and eat them, many went out of business.
Look at the cars on the lots, it's March 2019, there are still 2018's to be had, in a good year the new models are out in Sept and the current year is gone, these are indicators and it isn't good.
