The last truck cab rolled off the assembly line last Friday at the Mack Trucks plant outside Winnsboro, and by this Friday, almost all the remaining 670 union and nonunion assembly workers will lose their jobs.

"It should drop to fewer than 100 people" by the end of this week, Mack Trucks spokesman Bob Martin said.
The large complex off U.S. 321 once had 1,300 workers, making it Fairfield County's largest private-sector employer.
A worldwide slowdown in truck purchases led Volvo Global Trucks, Mack Trucks' corporate owner since April 2000, to close the Winnsboro plant and consolidate production in southwestern Virginia, officials said.
Volvo will move most of the Winnsboro plant's equipment, and some supervisors, to its 1.6 million-square-foot New River Valley plant near Dublin, Va., said Jim McNamara, spokesman for Volvo Trucks North America.
New River Valley, which Volvo has owned since 1981, also will make Mack trucks and cabs.
Local officials are scrambling to find new tenants or buyers for the 15-year-old Winnsboro plant, but have had no takers.
"We've been showing it, but no one's moving in," said Tommy Richardson, Fairfield County's former assessor and current interim director of the county's economic development office.
Fairfield County's unemployment rate for September was 10.9% -- the sixth highest in South Carolina.
Richardson predicted the closure of the Mack plant would cause local joblessness to rise sharply, perhaps to the highest rate of all 46 counties.
