What car was that?
Based on a quick glimpse..it was a Ford.
When assembling the front grill..one can see a fast glimpse of the Ford
emblem.

Interesting.
Didn't know Ford had a straight six in 1936...
They didn't, until 1941. I noticed the same thing. It's not a Ford, but I
can't pin down what it is. Cars looked a lot alike in the mid-'30s.

My bet is on a Desoto.

Check at 6:50. I was wrong..its not a Ford.

It may be a Dodge.

But..., I've already viewed it twice already. Who cares, its ugly.

The part where they are pressing the frame parts, I can't see what's
going on.

Looks like in another part, they are riveting or spot welding the
frames together and have spinning power shafts to clamp the frame
straight and or force for the riveter?

But the Desoto had wings too looks like on the hood ornament. Noticed
the star, wonder if there where any crosses on cars... Which brings
up something I have noticed living up here and can't figure out. On
houses and buildings there are three dimensional 5 pointed stars made
out of tin I assume. Maybe like stars for family in and or lost in the
service?

That is a section of "Master Hands" It's a GM line video.

capable of entrusting a man like him with the Presidency.
It will be far easier to limit and undo the follies of an
Obama presidency than to restore the necessary common sense
and good judgment to a depraved electorate willing to have
such a man for their? president.. Blaming the prince of the
fools should not blind anyone to the vast confederacy of
fools that made him their prince".
