Neat little film. I'd say they're 1927 Buicks based on the wheels, fenders, and body lines, but the engine in the crankshaft section of the film looks to be a flathead and not the ohv that Buicks had. So maybe not...or maybe a different makes ***embly line?
Interesting stuff. Lots of back breaking work going on right there. I’d have to say the making of the tires fascinated me the most though.
Liked the gl*** making sequence. Would like to have more detail of the process. The background music sounded like it should have been playing in a Laurel and Hardy or Our Gang movie.
Fascinating to watch. Manufacturing was a labor intensive process. The tire maker really had to work that machine! Imagine doing that for a 10 hour day.
Humbling stuff for sure. The dedication to a dream . On that same note, watch the movie on the making of the Lincoln. What Edsel did to save Lincoln, and the ***embly line Factories that Leland had designed .The processes from beginning to end. The backbreaking work. Mind boggling.
And how about the double decker bus, with the driver sitting on the second level. That is so cool! Even the buses had style back then
My father's father used to ***emble milk trucks, in the twenties. Dad said he was a mean SOB. I got to know him in the early Fifties. He had gone through brain surgery Spent his days sittin' in the parlor, telling goofy jokes.
