Default Fuchs, anyone?

Been meaning to run this photo for some time. Shot back in the 1970s when I was walking around the factory. In those days they stocked up on Fuchs and cookie cutters...

That looks like American Eagle in Chino, now you have to tell us more of the story. Stutguart and Santa Barbara are not in the same zip....

It's Zuffenhausen, of course. (Thought that part was obvious!)

It could have been at the Fuchs Forging Werks.

Edgy was famous on the 928 board a while back with his 928 production line pics from his factory visit.
