Chrysler Assembly Line - Hershey Drops (pics)

[Tempest 455]

My Dad was a manager at the Chrysler Trenton Chemical/Adhesive plant in the 60's. I was digging through old slides and found these. He often would go with some of the R&D staff to the line to test new and various products. The adhesives used in the process were nick named "Hershey Drops".

I found some interesting old pics from the line.

Awesome pics!!!! I love how the colors look in the old kodachrome film. Too bad they couldn't have come up with some better "Hershey Kisses" for the 71-4 Charger trunklids that are all separated now and sound like a thunder sound prop from some stage production.
