Really Interesting!

Automation, No Computers 















































































Notice no body wood.  1935 was the first year for all steel bodies with full
roof shells instead of the chicken wire and canvas roofs.    Whoever
choreographed this with the music did a pretty good job.    

This was 77 years ago.  

This is some good footage from a long time ago. Really interesting.  

I wasn't aware they had robotic welders in 1936!  

This is especially for the men in the household.  

Amazing - these people actually worked to earn a living.  None of them were
overweight either.  

This was state of the art at one time...........................  

1936 Chevrolet Assembly Line  Interesting stuff  

For car buffs  

This is an amazing video !!  

1936 Chevrolet Assembly Line  

This is really awesome footage. A 1936 Chevrolet assembly factory.. Note the
automation that was already in place, the workers lack of any and all modern
safety equipment, glasses and helmets, and they ALL know exactly what to do
and its getting done. Note also that when the body comes together with the
chassis that it is in FULL trim, Interior, windshield, all glass etc. Is
already in place as it is dropped onto the awaiting rolling chassis,
"AMAZING". Simplicity at its best. Note that while the metal finishers are
checking the sheet metal for minute and tiny flaws and defects that they are
wearing heavy leather work gloves.  

How would YOU like that repetitious job of placing 3 rivets in the 3 holes
on the chassis for about 35 to 40 years.
