My Pontiac-loving friend, Mike (who has assembled some pretty neat old car car footage at Musclecar Films), showed me this website from Spain that is titled "Photos of Classics on the Assembly Line and Transporters." You don't need to know Spanish in order to enjoy it to the fullest.
There are plenty of photos from SEAT, Spain's brand whose claim to fame was building Fiats under license and now is a subsidiary of Volkswagen. However, the pics of Ferrari and Lamborghini assembly lines are a wonderful discovery, and there are enough interesting American car photos to maintain the attention of the most jaded aficionado. I spotted Kaisers from Argentina, Dafs from Holland, and Opel Rekords from Germany - all from the 1950-60s. And don't forget Pegaso was from Spain too!
I've included a few pics here to tempt you, but I would set aside some time to go, little by little, through the whole site.
Like cars? I do! So email me what you'd like to see and I'll see what I can do for you. And be sure to check out the index of past articles!
