Re: Old Ford Movie.
A truly fantastic video and a snapshot in time of America's manufacturing might. Had we not had this to fall back on at the outbreak of WWII things might be different today. Unfortunately a lot of this "might" has gone to China these days.
I also agree with Shadetree on the fingers thing. I bet none of those press operators could order three beers with one hand! |

Re: Old Ford Movie.
I loved the way the guy was applying the pinstripe. All three lines at the same time. Most of the pin stripers I have ever from original factory motion pictures, it was done with a brush.

Re: Old Ford Movie.
There are so many parts of the film I find amazing. But the part that stands out for me is, how the giant stamps were made with such precision for the frames, fenders, floor pans, etc.
I also love the upholsterer's with the mouth full of tacks. Look closely. There was obviously no such thing as OSHA back then. Thanks for posting. Love going back in time. |
