Bit of a long video but well worth a look. Enjoy.
This is the way to build MG cars! No health & Safety in those days. The wheel fitting stage and engine to gearbox assembly takes some beating and as for the spray shop and the guys not wearing masks!!!

They don’t seem to mask things too well.
Must have been lots of overspray?

Thanks for that link!
I have a 31 Morris Minor that "shares" some of those components.
I should wear a tie in the shop.

Talk about overspray.. look at the painters, no mask of any kind.
