Musicman, this was the 1930s but it was almost like Henry Fords assembly line.."now that the frame is ready for the engine,the next move is to get the engine ready for the frame, its like a couple of shade tree mechanics building a car.

GM used that 'Body by Fisher' slogan for years and years. They blew it when they started using it in South America. Someone in GM's advertising arm used a literal translation - Cuerpo por Fisher. 'Cuerpo' could be translated to 'body,' but not in the sense they meant. A better translation is 'Corpse by Fisher.'
