High quality Swiss made A - Bodies

WoW, what an awesome thread indeed!

This has brought a tear to my eye as the father of a good friend of mine was a foreman at Chrysler Rootes London UK.
When we left school in 1972 he went work there as an apprentice and I did mine in a small engineering shop in Wimbledon.
The writing was 'on the wall' for the London site 'to close' and he left there 'quickly' and became a draughtsman instead.

The point being, why did Chrysler not give the UK the job of assembling Dusters, Darts and Valiants in the early 70's?
To think I could have had a job assembling UK Mopars 'as an apprentice' would have been truly awesome indeed...:drama:
