"The car had special features. It had a strong engine called a straight six. This engine is 218 cubic inches big. Some cars also had an extra part called a supercharger to make them faster.... Hollywood has many fancy outside parts; it has shiny bumpers.. It had a special kind of gearbox called a manual transmission." The insight here is nothing short of extraordinary!
ans roll up windows !
The first Excalibur was a Studebaker SS.
Seen Excaliburs, Heard of the Tucker 48, as rare as they were, I've seen a Chrysler Turbine Car. A really cool loing, never saw a TVR Griffith 200, have seen photos and read about them, I have only seen photos of the Kaiser Darrin, only briefly saw photos of a Graham Hollywood don't know much about them, anybody who isn't aware of a Duesenburg Model J has been in a coma, the Oldsmobile F88 was a styling exercise, wasn't a production model, never heard of the Momo Mirage, never heard of the Veritive Scorpion either. Looks neat, but it's not American, neither is the Momo, Mirage.
That Chrysler turbine car looked cool they should have had a gas engine option
I agree! A lot of these cars should be re released these auto companies don’t know the treasure chest they have in their archives. Restomods could be a huge seller in today’s market. So many design cues were SO WELL DONE back in the day they make so many of today’s styles pale in comparison. Come on design teams get with it!
"The engine was paired with a three-speed automatic gearbox insuring smooth shifts." -- all photos show it with a manual trans but why bother being consistent?
I have seen all but one which is a German car, so it’s hardly nobody ever saw these cars unless you were born after 1970.
The last two cars are made with foreign designers and mechanics ! Not America !
Errors in the script, even more errors made by the stupid AI compugen voice. How is a car made in Italy or Germany American?!
Example : Cadilac Allante Made in Italy & Detroit ! !
Who gives the size of Chevy engines in cubic centimeters? It’s a 350. “With two valves per cylinder” wow so an intake and an exhaust valve for each cylinder then, the minimum.
“The car has special features. It has a strong engine called a straight six. Some cars had a part called a supercharger.” 🙄
You have some pretty cool cars in the video but why do you think I have never seen them? And why do you talk so funny?
It’s a lazy video with an AI narrator made by people who don’t know much about cars for people who don’t know much about cars.
I guess it must be pretty profitable to make car videos. You don’t even need to know anything about cars or normal speech. Maybe I’ll try it. I don’t think I could do much worse than this.
It had another benefit it got rid of tailgate ers hot exhaust!!!
that 289 sure looks like a 350 chevy
As I recall, Studebaker used relabeled Chevy engines at the end...
That my friend is a 289 ford engine, distributor is in front part of engine, Chevy 350 distributor rear of engine. Also Chevy engines look nothing like a ford engine
@@buzzwaldron6195yes it was a 283 and used in ‘65 and ‘66
@@Laszlo-b8k - We're talking about at 01:25...
Astonishingly sloppy workmanship issues: mentioning such unusual features as 3 speed manual trans, and the startling use of TWO valves per cylinder!!! Wow.
PS Teaching your AI that there are often words in other languages
which will pop up now and then...
Also: I thought this was about AMERICAN cars.....but TVR was English.....
Also 289 Studebaker is not the same as the SBC.....that
At 1:34 you show what is clearly a small block Chevy and call it a 289 Studebaker. Why are these videos with AI voices always full of gross errors? AND, why should anyone watch past 1:34 to hear more lies? Get the facts straight!
AI garbage. Embarrassing. Do yourself a favor and scroll on.
Why didn't i read comments first
Details about bore and stroke, tire size etc. etc. clearly read off a specifications sheet and very little about the conception and reception of the cars. For the Kaiser Darrin there's not even a mention of how it got its name. Pretty bad all round.
The Kaiser Darrin was designed by Dutch Darrin, a big deal in the Thirties and Forties. It had a Kaiser engine, which wasn't a big deal at all. Most of Darrin's designs (like the 1940 (?) Packard Darrin), had cut down doors or sides. The Graham company and the Hupp Company bought the old body dies for the Cord sedan, which was a front wheel drive car. The Graham Hollywood was not a descendant of Cord. The Huppmobile sedan and the The Graham Hollywood Supercharged were the last gasps of dying car companies. The Huppmobile and the Graham looked almost identical. They were trying to come up with new looks without the cost of retooling, which was why they bought the old Cord body dies from Auburn-Cord-Duesenberg. Both had rear wheel drive.
Here's some news for the AI idiot: the manual transmission in the Graham was not a special device. All cars except some Oldsmobiles had manual transmissions.Oldsmobile was pioneering a novel new experiment - automatic transmissions - in some of its cars. If the two liter Veritas Scorpion could do 147 miles per hour, it could have outrun every other car in the world except the Jaguar XK 140 with an engine considered tiny even by the standards of the day. That is to say that was a lie. If it could do 147, I could run 100. Also, it was a German car not American.
The straight six engine in the Graham Hollywood was not made by Graham. It was a Continental six. The Continental six was ubiquitous in assembled cars in the Thirties. Assembled cars were cars put together with parts taken from different manufacturers' (not necessarily car companies) parts bins instead of being manufactured by the car company. Often if one parts bin ran low they would go to another manufacturer which is a real problem for restorers trying to restore assembled cars. Lycoming was another engine used widely in assembled cars which ultimately was bought by Auburn-Cord-Duesenberg in the late Twenties.
About the Momo Mirage with its mysterious unrevealed horsepower rating: The 5.736 Liter engine was the Chevrolet 350 V8. At the time of the 350 's debut in 1967, the American Congress was contemplating breaking up Chevrolet, which was selling almost 40% of the cars sold in the world. Probably 1/2 of the Chevrolets sold had 350 V8's in them. Later, in the Seventies and forward that became the go to small block V8 for most General Motors cars. So the mysterious 5736 cubic centimeter engine was in approximately one of every five cars sold in the world - rough estimate. The horsepower might take a little research (year, aspiration design, etc.) but I'll bet somebody could find it.
I've never gotten to see an Oldsmobile F-88, or a Veritas Scorpion. I've seen all the others.
Whew. These list-style car videos are usually pretty bad, but not this one: this was truly terrible! NO research, fumbled "facts", implying that things like 2 valves per cylinder and manual transmissions were somehow unusual . . . Wow. I could go on and on, but why bother. The proof of how truly awful this video is that the final car in this list of rare American cars was German! It's things like this that make me usually avoid this type of video. I keep hoping that, somehow, this next one with a title that sounds interesting will be different, and I'm always disappointed. Maybe I should go into this business for myself and make videos like this except for a couple of minor details: they would get the facts correct and the photos would always go along with the cars or trucks being described.
the kaiser darrin was an ugly disproportionate car.
