Hi Dave, What a site it is to see all those motors, or bodies as they are called, travelling along, usually in single file. Many years ago I worked at Longbridge in the body shop, as I live only 3 miles away from the old plant. This was was were we used assemble all the different body parts into a complete body shell and as a sheetmetal worker at the time I used to planish out any dents caused by assembling and welding it was called dinging. When everything was working good it was an awesome site seeing everything in full flow. Only lasted just over twelve months as the working pattern was two weeks days and two weeks nights was a killer and could take no more. But really glad you enjoyed your visit.

Cheers KB
