Just found the time to watch this fascinating video.
There were some truly hazardous, even dangerous, construction operations
back in the 30's.
At about 2:30, there are men who have large machinery close in in them from
both sides---one bad mis-step, and 'you' were history!
At about 6:30, men are seen stepping up onto narrow moving tracks, to
attend to
the front sheetmetal.
One bad slip, or when a bumper bracket would catch your pants, causing
you to
fall or get caught under the car, and you are in a World of Hurting.
The construction noise must have been deafening.
