Just because the cars had more metal didn't make them better. Their idea of holding tolerances back then was " close enough " . I guess just because the cars were simpler and easier to work on made them better, that's ok. It's ok if rusting and turning into rattle traps within a couple years was better.
As far as the warranty thing back then, your right because I wouldn't want to stand behind the products either.

Well, who cares how much illegal acvtivity was going on? Ive never seen a straightlaced corporation. Have you?
As for the paycheck thing, we can agree that hasnt changed nor will it change. I'm sure its exactly the same and those folks could give a damn about putting together a car day in and day out. Especially the way the Union has been played out.
