For the third time in four years, the Bowling Green Corvette plant will see a change in leadership.

Less than a year after Bob Parcell took over the reigns of the GM plant, he's now headed for a new job and the plant is getting a new boss.

Production seems to be back on track... morale is up again at the General Motors plant... so its almost a fitting time for a change in leadership.

Dave Tatman says its a "dream come true".

"Among the plant managers in the company, the Bowling Green plant is regarded as the "crown jewel" of our assembly plant to manage a job. I'm absolutely delighted and humbled to be asked to be the plant manager of Bowling Green," he says.

Tatman comes in after the Corvette plant spent a year in "dire straits".

"We've gone through a period of incredible uncertain anxiety in 2009, but our company could not be positioned better as we look into 2010 and beyond."

With several years of plant managing under his belt for GM, he wants the community to know his presence doesn't mean the plant will be closing or moving.

"There's absolutely no intention to move any business out of the Bowling Green Assembly Plant on the part of GM," Tatman re-iterates.

"We have no reason to believe that the car will be built anywhere except in Bowling Green," echoes Eldon Renaud.

Renaud, president of the UAW 2164 says he's excited top have Tatman on board and believes customers and employees won't see any drop-off in quality.

"We want a smooth transition because our buyers expect a lot out of a car when they're paying the type of money they do for an exclusive sports car like the Corvette."

"I'm really convinced that no factory can be run effectively without a manager that's been out on the floor with these people," adds Tatman.

Tatman will make his first trip to his new office on Monday.
