I'm not following your 21.40/42k a year thing.
Back then? Wasn't awfully hard.
Chrysler was the easiest...but they would lay most folks off right before their 90 days was up.
GM was next, Ford was the hardest....but relative to the last 25 yrs, it was simple as pie
My journey started at TRW, I quit after 4 months. Worked a few small shops, which generally sucked in wages and working conditions. Went to Chrysler for a year, my boss pissed me off and I quit, to never go back in a shop.
Well....never is a funny word. Returned to Fords as a tradesperson 7 yrs later and hung around for 30 yrs.
