    Very cool! And to think of all this machinery and coordination being designed without computer software or even a calculator! Thanks for the link.

    What flimsy trash! :slap: By the time it's been driven 100 miles over rough roads the whole thing is probably tweaked!

    The first film is mesmerizing! I couldn't help but wonder how many men were maimed by the unforgiving machinery rapidly moving around them. One wrong move and wham! And to watch it with music, instead of what had to be unbelievable noise in the factory. :smash:

    I am in awe of what this country used to be able to do. Amazing!

    Can anyone tell me what kind of car is being built? I am not very up on the cars of the 30's.
    Edit: :slap: Of course, it's a 1936 Chevrolet...gorgeous!

    David :)
