We would run special fleet orders, typically in "batches", meaning over the course of a couple days or a week every number of vehicles (like every 10th or whatever) would be a special. I was there when they ran all of the military CUCV vehicles, with the camo paint jobs, and those were every 12th vehicle. On Line 2 we would run two Suburbans followed by one Blazer. We did Suburbans for the RCMP that were purple primary color with red secondary color above the beltline. You couldn't run too many of anything in a row, in order to help balance the operator workload. Can't run too many two tone paint jobs, or too many A/C builds in a row, or manual trans, or cab high running lights, or tripowers, or such. Incidentally - that seemingly random camo paint job? It was standardized. There was a painted component hanging in the spray booth as a template and the painters were expected to (freehand) match that. K

In looking at the two 1964 Chevrolet assembly line photos, did they really paint the exhaust systems (but not the muffler)?
