History Chevy Master Hands 1936 factory tour

This series of 4 videos take you to Chevrolet in 1936. A factory tour.

I found this over at Practical Machinist and tought the HAMB would be interested.

On the first page, go to external links. the 4 parts are there. I had trouble playing the vids, needed to use the help menu on the left and in my case select broadband, then full screen, yours might be different.

The trouble to see these are well worth it.
Building the stovebolt from forgings and castings
Making the knee action assembly.
Stamping the frames, assembling frames.
Stamping the panels.
Some final assembly.

Happy New Year, Enjoy.
