Interesting. I didn't see a single torque wrench used anywhere.

Great Film. It would be interesting to see a film on how they are put together now and compare.

Good find.
I loved the music when they started the engine.

Oh, I'd love to watch that, but my system isn't doing it; I click the Start button, and it says "connecting to media..." for a second or two, then goes back to saying "Ready". Anybody know what I have to do to be able to watch that? Okay, maybe one or two, any of you care to share that knowledge with me?

Really enjoyed that, thanks.
I would hate to have worked there, that music playing all day long would have got on my nerves!
I always said torque wrenches were for sissies. :-D

It is a film made in, I believe, 1956, or there abouts... called "It"s a Triumph".

It is part of a DVD trilogy from Duke Video (UK) called: 99.99 Triumph. Unfortunately it is only available in the EU format PAL and you need to have a DVD player thyat has a PAL to NTSC converter in it. Very cool videos.
