Don't know if you watch the show... 'How It's Made'! I do it they're making something interesting & lately they've been showing how Super-Cars are made! I recorded several & just watched the one about how Corvettes are made. Man hours to build a car have fallen from around 60 back in the 60's to about 30 hrs now & the Vette is a perfect example. Robots do nearly everything & humans do the small stuff a robot can't. The new LS motors are mainly built by robots with humans putting in the crank, pistons & small stuff. The body 'panels' are also put on by humans. Pretty interesting if you like that kinda stuff!

I watched the one about building the Tesla S... incredible stuff & again... mainly built by robots! Gotta admire Elon Musk... not many people have been able to take on the majors & stay in business.

Check out the one on the Morgan. Put together with aluminum, glue and rivets, wood (ash), glue and stainless screws. All done by hand.
