Truly International

Miguel noticed that my upper radiator hose was Hecho en Mexico.

That's not the only part!

The Tremec TR-6060 Manuel manual transmission is also made in Pedro Ecobedo, Mexico.

The LS3 engine was assembled in St Catharines, Canada.

The brake calipers are from Elizabeth, Australia.

The electronics are from all over the world, Mexico, Korea, Taiwan...

There's even some US made content.

Then it was all assembled in Kentucky.

This is the norm for all cars made these days.

Marv's "Japanese" pick-up was made in Tennessee.

My Mom's Civic was made in Ohio.

The Biscayne was made in Willow Run, Michigan and even back in March 1990 a Chevy was chock full of international parts.  Some even imported from Socialist nations like California.

    I don't know if you remember that Pinto station wagon I used to drive, but the body was made in Canada.
