Abstract
This paper presents highlights of assembly operations for the new 1975 model Ford Econoline III. All major assembly operations are covered. However, particular emphasis is placed on the automation used in body assembly. Econoline body and paint operations are performed at Ford's Ohio Truck Plant. Painted bodies are transported via special vans to the Lorain Assembly Plant for trim, frame and final assembly operations.
