This book was created to train assembly plant staff to assemble the chassis of the 1960 Ford. This is a worded instruction book rather than exploded numbered parts diagrams that you might have seen in other assembly manuals. It is a written overview explaining the assembly process. Each page addresses a chassis component showing:
- an illustration
- an explanation of how assembly is similar to or different from 1959
- tools or procedures that might be used
- differing parts that are used for differing models or equipment
The illustrations can sometimes show how parts are put together and other times show how tools are used in the assembly process. Some drawings are more helpful than others. You can also gain insight into why your car is a certain way (some holes were predrilled, and others drilled on the assembly line, for example).
