In 1967 our Rossford Ohio Senior Class did Detroit for a day , Greenfield Village , Henry Ford Museum and the River Rouge plant where they were building Mustangs and Cougars on the same floor. The controlled chaos and engines revving and tires squealing met our approval to finish our tour !!

So many OSHA violations in one video. I lost count. ;-)

It's pretty sanitized, I imagine on account of the sheer number of civilians passing through.
I've mentioned this before, but I used to give the tours at Flint Assembly when I was an engineering student there. Basically a quick pass up and down the "Main Aisle" between the final lines (Line 1 = pickup; Line 2 = Blazer/Suburban). People would stand and watch the body drop for as long as you would let them.

OHSA was established in 1971 BTW.

When I worked at the St Paul plant, the body drop was cool, but the front clip always amazed me, how quickly those guys steered the whole thing into place and dropped the core support on the bolts. It was bolted up and getting adjusted in like 10 seconds.

Saw that Martha & the Vandellas video on PBS last night, on the 'Murray the K' special. Lots of other great vintage 'music videos' also. That's Murray the K you see in the hat at the very beginning of the video, and he's also the one driving the Mustang off of the line at the end. Some great music from years past....

My first "real job" after graduating from GMI was as a production supervisor, Line 1 Fender Set area, second shift. We did it piecemeal, then, too. Line rate was 60 jobs per hour, or one completed vehicle per minute, so we had about 45 seconds to get both front fenders on. K
