if the panels fit correctly they wouldn't have to kick the car to align
them.

This is why the aftermarket panels don't fit our LBCs. The originals didn't
fit either. This wasn't a problem at Abingdon. whe the cars were worked on
by teams. I'm sure there was a hammer by each body station.

BTW, the book I read about the decline of the British car industry said
Longbridge turned our more cars per day, but the quality at Abingdon was
superior. This was echoed by Geof Healey when he said he was concerned about
the transfer of maufacturing from Longbridge to Abingdon. He then says that
his fears were groundless and Abingdon was a better plant.
