If you enjoyed this, you should definitely visit the Henry Ford Museum in Dearborn, Mi... They take apart and reassemble a model T everyday in the museum.
My favorite part of the museum is the Rouge factory tour. Completely integrated manufacturing, the type that I don't think exists anywhere in the world. Essentially you had coal and iron ore come in one side of the factory and Model A's being pumped out 48 hours later on the other side. An incredible site (now it's just a Ford Truck Assembly, but you can see amazing videos of the past)
