Cool video.

Thankyou

 

Good video makes you wonder where all those presses are today.

 

Melted down. :[

 

Very cool.

 

Can you imagine how working in those plants in those days must have been? No wonder most of those guys were deaf by the time they hit 50. But it was a good job and they were glad to do it.

 

I've seen this before (I think it may have been on here, but I'm not sure). Anyway, what impressed me was the amount of automation and the number of robots being used during the initial chassis assembly in the beginning; looks to be just as much as in some current videos I've seen lately.

 

Yea. I was suprised at the amount of automation as well, It also looked like if those guys stepped into the wrong spot they'd get squished
