THANKS for the photos!!! So much to see... I'll have to abuse my broadband

A post on your MOCpages site says:
"I've seen the car assembly line working partly, but it's amazing how they can
build a car from separate bricks (14?) into a completely assembled car -
including the wheels."

So.... what's the scoop? do the cars just move around on the tracks in a loop,
or are the creators actually BUILDING little cars as they go?

It looks SO cool.... I wish I could have seen it in person!

Cheers!

"Cogito Ergo Lego"

Its a straight line assembly plant that is intended to build a Lego car piece by
piece (how many? - I don't know)... adding parts at each station ... I believe
its by the Italian LUG (apologies if it isn't) ... unfortunately they spent most
of Legoworld debugging it ... though I suspect it'll be ready for another show
soon ... it was a huge an awesome beast.

I can't find any other info on the net .... but perhaps someone out there can
help ...
