    epsiode "assembly line"

    They were showing assembly lines and how they came about..(everyone i hope knows who started that)
    But they were showing a ford plant , and you guessed it mavericks being put together , showed them putting the roof on glass in and even a little bit of driving them off the line and around the lot, it was pretty cool i hope some can catch this episode its right at the 40th min till about 48th min :cool: :dancing:

    Yep, I saw tis one too. I thought it was really cool to see how they put the roof skins on them. I wish I could find all the old video that they used to make that show. I'd say they showed a mav being built from start to finish.

    yea I saw that.

    lots of good assembly footage.


    im sure if we contacted History Channel and asked where they got that footage, we could get the originals.

    FYI ... I still have that episode on my DVR from last year ... so that episode is not new ... I'm sure they got that footage from the Ford Archives ... and paid good money for the research to find it and then buy a copy of it ...
