(AP) -- Documents in Chrysler's bankruptcy case reveal the automaker's plans to close five more of its plants by the end of 2010.

The plants include the Sterling Heights and Conner Avenue assembly plants in Michigan, and the St. Louis North assembly plant in Missouri.

Chrysler's Twinsburg, Ohio, stamping plant and Kenosha, Wis., engine plant would also close.

The plants are among eight that would be left out of a deal for Italy's Fiat to buy the U.S. carmaker's most valuable assets in bankruptcy. Instead, the "new Chrysler" would lease the plants then shutter them by December 2010.

Two other plants on the list were idled at the end of last year. Those are the St. Louis South plant and an assembly plant in Newark, Del.

And Chrysler's Detroit Axle plant is already scheduled to be replaced by a new factory near Port Huron, Mich.
