Notice the age of these skilled craftsmen. Where are the apprentices who will continue this work when these guys retire ? There will always be demand for these panels and bodies for these popular cars. These skills should not be lost as the demand is still there and restoration of older cars is environmentally friendly.
I’m tearing my 66 Midget apart for restoration. The car has a very small 2 piston master cylinder with common reservoir. Looks like one for the clutch and one for the brakes. Is this safe or should I retrofit a pair of 3:50 different master cylinders?
Do you think this is how the built the original cars, by hand, with no robots? I realise they would have been on an assembly line with a lot more workers but all hand built?
Fascinating!

Yes, pretty much like this.
