For those of you with GPWs manufactured in Richmond, I found this interesting site which has photos of the factory. Obviously taken in the seventies or eighties, it was before the plant became the Rosie The Riveter Museum. I enjoyed the photos of the "crating sheds".

Thanks for posting the link to those wonderful documentary photos of the Richmond, Calif. Ford Assembly plant. I really enjoyed touring it this morning.
