COOL movie on 50's VW factory, complete beetle build
« on: January 29, 2014, 06:39:04 pm »


 Ted sent this to me,




  Movie is much better than what I thought!

Ex, at ~ 12.25 can see the process of drilling out the engine block,
Cylinders being made before that/forging, ~9:30,
Flywheels thereafter...
Body stamping/building later on
road tests..
Beginning of movie shows old buses/beetles being driven around

Factory is very impressive - but I give it 3 years before that factory process is mimicked in Shawn's garage....  thumpup)-
