      Default 1985 Fox body assembly line video

      (I'm thinking this may belong in the 'restoration' section since it's OEM video footage, if so feel free to move it.)

      DISCLAIMER> As I understand, these videos are on a site which will license them but they are not to be uploaded to YouTube or they will be removed. I contacted them about licensing but did not understand the requirements. Perhaps someone here is familiar with licensing?


      It takes some time to load after you hit PLAY so be patient.


      Raw video of a TBird/Cougar line.....Enjoy! Especially the hood 'adjustment' procedure!

      Did you see the car that wouldn't start being pulled off of the line with a tractor? Gives a brief but interesting idea of life on the assembly line in 1985. I really enjoyed watching them.

      Great vids, especially the third one on the list,,, when they are putting the wheels on around 20:00 in the foreman tells the guy putting the lugs on " you ****** that one up , take it off and put it to the side " lol.

      Great video's! I'll have to show this to my Pop, he bought a 1984 T-Bird brand new, sold it in 1987 when the TFI was giving him trouble.

      Show him the video where the car doesn't start and he'll blame it on that darn TFI!
