LORDSTOWN — General Motors is spending $49 million to move two stamping presses from a closed Georgia factory to Lordstown.
The presses from Georgia will replace older equipment in Lordstown but will not result in any additional work being moved to the local factory, said Chris Lee, a GM spokesman.
The presses will produce metal parts that are used in the assembly of the Chevrolet Cobalts and Pontiac G5s that are made at the plant.
