[BaadAssGremlins] 36 Chevy Assembly Line

Non AMC related but some of you greybeards who might have gotten to ever see some of the Kenosha plants behind the scenes can relate. There are a number of still photos of Kenosha line(s) including photos on my site, I don't know of any film like strips of Kenosha like this that exist though. This is about 9 1/2 minute video and is excellent clarity considering age. Thought some of you might like to check it out.

36 Chevy 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.
