Meanwhile, the boffins at Abingdon were proceeding at a slightly slower pace:

the Pontiac line is that four years later it was using all that capacity to
cranki out war material. No wonder the industrial capacity of the US was such
an important factor in the Allied victory.

Very interesting, especially the final shot of the interior of the car.
Years ago, I bought an old speedometer at the Charlotte Autofair to use in
making myself a desk nameplate for my office at work. I didn't know which
car the speedo came out of until the video showed the one in the '36 Pontiac
to be identical to mine.
Wonder how many '36 Pontiacs, that absorbed so much manpower during
manufacture, are still in existence?
