You need to understand how a production line works... every single part and component is already well underway to becoming a car when YOUR production number is begun... so seating, dash assemblies, engine, tranny, driveling, etc are all sitting and waiting.

When the production number starts they take a body shell, VIN it, then stuff it.

Pretty fast, well, well, well discussed here.....
