How long ago did you get those images? How did you gain the access?

Tony,

It was five or 6 years or so. Went through several researchers had to start the process all over. Had to get right to use permission for the article in Nova Times. Posting the same on the Webpage was new to them and it took a bit of time to clear legal. Magazine and book right to use shouldn't be a problem.

Back then I could have researched myself but the rules were fairly restrictive. I did not have the time to visit anyway so I never looked further. I hear things changed when the GM Heritage center was formed. Now that it is closed I am not sure who handles them now.

Someone on Ebay was selling videos a few years ago that showed the GMAD process for designing a car. They were mostly from the mid 1970's. They did show some assembly line footage. B&W and not real great quality.

If you are looking for prewar cars there is plenty of footage on the net search for "Jam Handy". Casting engines, make coil springs, stamping bodies.

Greg

Jam Handy GM films

The Master Hands series is great. Especially when you get to the engine machining and checking part. Look for the guy swinging the hammer like inspection mark tool.

There is some 50's and Corvair stuff too.
