Thanks for posting.
Well what I find real impressive is that its not really robotics, its all hydraulic, mechanical machines. Each machine has only one action. There were no sensors and computers on the assembly lines. Every machine was tune and timed with no computers.
It is really amazing, everything was designed and drawn and calculated with paper and pen.
