They said on the TV show that certain parts of the engine had to be done by hand and don't two people hand spray the clear coat on?

It's funny how this picture was taken in 1972, but it looks like the LDV factory, the place where sun visors are made for Aston Martins and a whole host of other current day factories making parts for prestige british cars in the midlands:

Robo-johnnies. Subaru doesn't use them, which is why so many Imprezas have STI on them.
