Hand assembled meaning that they were NOT on a "regular" production line/run,meaning that the cars were indivutally assembled,NOT parts added on as it was going along on a Tellus production assembly line.There was NO pressure to assemble items on the car,(as it would be on a normal assembly line).In other words "hand assembled".Without the Tellus moving onto the next stage of assembly.Teams assigned to work/learn/hand assemble ect.Before the Start of the "real" production line.
