Scotty:

The variations never cease to amaze me. You'd think for something so controlled as a vehicle, that the specification would be rigid. There is a CFTO order, but examination of the end product proves that ingenuity and improvisation abounds. If these were airplanes, there would be a full binder of drawings and instructions telling smart guys how to do their jobs.

Rob Love will of course share with us the workplace atmosphere when this sort of job came in, who in the shop was likely to get the task and with whatever was available.
