Brother sent this to me,


  Very good vid showing making of body parts, engine parts, tranny parts at the VW factory in the 50's


            VW FACTORY


At aprrox 7.5 min into the vid, I thought what was that?  aha!, ..then thought about Bob and the quality control on this item.

Hope you enjoy -

it is about 10 min long.

there are more listed, but this is the one I saw.....

that was really good. I never realized when they punched out the roof sections the windows weren't cut out. I like the engine building lines, cool seeing guys working with just hand tools and the final inspection and run in. too bad it was all in German I'd like to know what the moderator was saying.

   Glad everyone liked it, I thought it was pretty cool.

Wish you could hear the sounds of the machinery, that would have been neat. Cant imagine the sounds of those big presses. They are very huge

Seemed like there were more vids - havent watched them all yet
