To A Model A; Thank You for compiling those wonderful videos for the engine and body plants. They really illustrate how much physical labor went into building the Model A. Some of those tasks could be featured on Mile Rowe’s Dirty Jobs series. I do times wonder about the people back in the day who built my A’s. My Grandfather worked at a Ford plant from the depression up until the early 50’s. It was the Kingsford, MI wood plant which was active until 1951 when they dropped the true woodies. He was lucky to have that job during those times in the UP. It kept him out of the iron mines and “the wolf away from the door”. He was able to get a pension and my Aunt (his Daughter) got a full scholarship to Michigan State from Ford Motor Company. I know today is a world economy … I buy Ford Products.
