Never had anything like that go on at the St. Paul plant in '71-72.
The guy attaching the front fender couldn't keep his eyes off them either...

Those were the days when the appearance of any female on the shop floor would result in a wave of whoops and hollers.

You could track the individual's progress by where the sound was coming from.

I wonder who got a factory Martha hair in their paint on their hood.

OHSA was established in 1971 BTW.

There's a hair in the paint of my GTO.

It doesn't look like Martha's hair, though.

In 1967 our Rossford Ohio Senior Class did Detroit for a day , Greenfield Village , Henry Ford Museum and the River Rouge plant where they were building Mustangs and Cougars on the same floor. The controlled chaos and engines revving and tires squealing met our approval to finish our tour !!

Saw that Martha & the Vandellas video on PBS last night, on the 'Murray the K' special. Lots of other great vintage 'music videos' also. That's Murray the K you see in the hat at the very beginning of the video, and he's also the one driving the Mustang off of the line at the end. Some great music from years past....

Back in 6th grade, we did an overnight field trip to the Henry Ford. We did the museum, Village and we got to use the Olympic Swimming pool. I don’t remember what car was being built, I do remember watching the windshields being made. I remember the hot steel, not sure if it was part of Ford casting. It was a good time.
