1950s USA - Everyday Cars Of Vintage America - Colorized 

I'm 74 and I was at Ft. Knox, KY. for 9 months. I bought a 1950 Cadillac for $400 in 1970. I drove that baby back and forth to New Jersey! I was like sitting in your living room !😂

I'll be 52 in May. My earliest memories are around 1976/1977. It was mostly 1960's and 1970's cars at that point, with 1950's cars thrown in. My grandfather had a junkyard by his house out in Antioch, KY. I very vaguely remember the smell of the leather seats, the looks of what had to be 1940s and 1950's cars on his lot :) There were wasp nests everywhere, but doesn't every junkyard have wasp nests? His house he lived in was a single-wide trailer. There was a building foundation that he had started, right in between the trailer and the junkyard further back on the property. I remember the 3 or 4 layers of cinder blocks he had started. He'd never finish that building because his wife had a massive stroke in the 1980's, and he would later pass away from a heart attack in the mid 1990's. He was a good Christian man who learned his welding skills when he was in the army in the 1940's, working on a battleship.

At 1:45 into the video the automobile shown is a 1957 Ford .

Sensacional essas imagens e videos !! Obrigado por nos mostrar.... eu adoro parar a imagem e dar zoom para observar os detalhes dessa época maravilhosa !!

I've been a subscriber to your channel for quite a while. I always look for new videos from you. I enjoy them a lot. Do you ever see De Sotos in your videos? I'm a De Soto owner and I find it odd when I look at old car videos rarely is there a De Soto

These were the greatest times and cars in US history. The US has done nothing but go downhill ever since. Sadly, at 81, I have watched it's decline and now turning into it's demise. Maybe we can go out together.

Nice pictures and mostly well colorized - but the '57 BelAir is really a Ford.

One photo says it is a 1957 Chevy BelAir but in fact it is a 1957 Ford

The 57 Chevy Bel-Air after the streetcar is a 57 Ford.

@ 1:45 it's a 1957 Ford. Just sayin', not criticizing. Great pics!

Not a stupid SUV in sight!!

I forgot how depressing the 1950s was. The cars were big and clunky and rusted where I lived in Michigan. My dad bought a 1954 Cadillac and by 1957 it was already rusting out. Underneath the doors, the wheel wells, this is true for all cars because there was no undercoating to protect it from the road salt they used in the winter. Plus the cars were all huge and cumbersome like lumbering beasts. You did a good job here but I find the whole thing very depressing. Things picked up so much more in the 1960s and cars actually became interesting and fun. In the 1950s there were no fun cars for the average public.

1:42 Just imagining how many Ford and Chevy aficionados you pissed of here!
