Porsche 356 - made by hand - documentary

[@nonyahbiznezz9094]

I sold early transporter parts to the editor Bruce. Mike Hornbecker did Dime Time, a monthly column in Hot VW's. He was my neighbor.

Made by hand was once a moniker of quality. Mechanization is even derided by comparison at 9:35. But automation proved its worth and attitudes changed. Today's Porsche factory is as impressive as the cars it makes.

Amazing footage! Thanks for sharing

[@andrepatacchini]

No wonder how they rusted so bad. Great beautiful cars. Sad they rusted more than a vw beetle

[@davea5150]

So sharp, timeless design!!

[@johnfreeman1189]

Wow, awesome film. Thanks for sharing.

Absolutely supreme quality and assembly!. Even the kit cars, some costing 100k+ can't compare! BTW they have modified VW motors. I'm a semi retired Porsche mechanic, age 74.

Wish I had ALL THE PORSCHES in the VIdeo !!!!!!!!

Porsche cars are really a better betty getters then most cars by far...

@8:20,they didn't do a very good job of rust prevention as we found in the 1980's when the floors dissolved in humid weather. 😁

True of all cars of the era.....

[@Golfr2020]

All cars back then had rust issues. Not just Porsche.

Porsche began zinc coating in 1977.

[@Golfr2020]

Must have been more job satisfying to work back then in such a Car industry. I worked in Holden's and Chrysler in the 80ties and already then it was nothing but rush and pressure at the expense on quality.

[@Edgy01]

Thank God they’re not made like that any longer!

[@jackvanallen708]

Awesome, but they still all rust out

[@propellerhead428]

Bly gemaakte Volkswagen 😘

[@andrewallen9993]

Nowadays robots do a very much superior job.

[@asdmuzak]

And they make cars with no soul

[@stephenhoosick7434]

Bodies were never dipped in a tank to be electro coated with an anti rust primer,,,Thats why they were rust buckets
