Answer: Because the truck frames always came down the line upside down and the suspension components were lowered from above. The workers would ID the chassis with grease pencils for accountability. Right before the cab and frame were mated, they would flip the frame right-side up.
If this truck turns out half as nice as the '62 Impala, it's going to be amazing. I'll be tuning in for this build. You obviously have this stuff figured out. |
I try. I built and raced circle track cars for 15 years and won a few championships at local 1/3 mile race tracks. That taught me about attention to detail and reliability, as well as learning fabrication skills as well. I am also in the Nuclear Quality control arena as for work. These trucks are completely new to me though.
