It looks like Factory Zero is getting closer, numerous pre production trucks are moving through the factory, one Body in White is clearly painted, and another is headed into Final Assembly. GM reiterated the program is On Schedule! There are 150 union workers working on the Hummer lines right now, going up to 300 when salable production starts. There is a paywall on this article in Detroit News, but here are the pictures. A little Easter Egg, there appears to be a Hummer EV SUV Body in White in the background of one of the photos...

Is that an SUV body I see in the last photo? Will be cool to start seeing those out getting some testing done as well even though my reservation is for the SUT

Not the most exciting video, but some good shots from inside the factory.

That my friends don't look like no body on frame structure... haha!

That doesn’t look like body on frame to me either! Just so you know, and if you don’t want to listen to the music on that last one, here is the original b roll footage from GM:

Dont know how I missed it as it came out in July apparently. I like the “Gatling gun” I assume they use to out the bolts on the wheels. 😃. Pretty massive looking. It’s shown towards the end…

Ya, I saw that on GM's website, recorded July 2, so it is already over a month old. I lifted a few still shots, its cool... In the opening scene of the video you can see off to the right side the body shop for the Silverado EV starting to go together.

Quiet Framing Line, this is where the magic happens...

Ready for paint

2 Hummer Ev's headed for the paint shop

Paint shop staging area, I can imagine seeing this full of Hummer EV's in October

No, but I have been in auto plants, and they are all for the most part the same.
