Here's an awesome video showing how it was back in the day. I don't think it's too much of a stretch to say anyone who owns a 55 chevy will probably see people who built their car. Hope you enjoy it.

Believe it or not, but when I left in 06, ALOT of the BASIC building was still done the same way. Around 1985 GM went to Robotics in ALL their plants, and Robots do ALOT of the welding now, but ALOT of stuff is still installed by people. If you look at that film, watch the people do their jobs, REMEMBERING that THAT'S ALL they do, the EXACT SAME REPETITIVE MOTION, hour after hour for up to 10 hours a day(Depending on WHAT you were building), NEVER being able to get a drink, go to the john, or even SIT DOWN for ALL that time. A team leader MAY do his job PROPERLY and give rest room breaks, OR he may NOT. Depended on him. But working on the assembley line is NOT a job for folks who DON'T want to work, caz you WILL EARN EVERY CENT they pay you. THAT'S A FACT!!!!!!!!!
