@Petersen Automotive Museum, Thank you for opening up The Vault for all of us to enjoy. Wonderful presenter and cars. One piece of feedback, these cars are beautiful and need to be filmed in 4K. 720P does them no justice. Again, thank you for sharing this one of a kind collection!
This young woman must be French. Her pronunciation of all those French cars was superb... She is obviously super knowledgeable as well. I enjoyed this video very much!
I love her tours and her level of knowledge is unchallenged. I learn something from her in every video. A very minor criticism: please refrain from using the words actually and basically in almost every sentence.
Great tour. One thing about ford, the guide mentions ford owned a rubber plant "fordlandia" that supplied him with rubber for his cars. As far as i know fordlandia, which was ford's attempt to grow rubber trees in the rain forrest was a complete disaster, and in fact didn't manage to supply any rubber for use on ford cars till it was deserted by 1934
being a docent for a car museum has got to be a dream job in many ways. Wonderful recounting of a couple dozen of the cars the started the industry. Do a little more research on the "golf bag door" on the Nash; I can think of a couple of the Duesenbergs from that same era that had them in their coachwork before the Nash was built. Other than that nit, I'm a fan!
I would watch them drive around Daytona cars which I had as an aurora car set. The blue car was my favorite. It was exciting to see it in real life after watching them drive it around behind the building.
Please donate so they can buy 1080p camera and a dolly form the camera so the camera operator can stand still long enough for us to focus on what we are watching. I'm guessing they are not used to this kind of work. Basically basically good care but can't see them. Bring in doug
Thank y'all for starting off with Studebaker....thought everyone forgot about them....ahead of their time. I have a '53 restomod my dad built right before he died that i love... Speaking of love...great job Mikayla! Hooe you do more.
I do not have enough hard drive to remember all those glorious details although I'm sure some of stuck. Gotta love ending with the Round Door which turns out is barely a car but definitely a work of art.
What a great show, and beautiful cars. The three French coach builder examples at the 25 minute mark are extraordinary. When you got to the final Rolls swoopy round door build I was in love - until you mentioned 100 hp. Poor thing.
The LaSalle Grilles were sought after by customisers in the 40's and 50's and looked really stylish on the 36 Ford Coupe, but the car itself was beautiful . The Mercedes 290 should be in my garage...
That yellow Packard is NOT a '34 model, but a '35, '36' or '37. My guess, it is a '37 V/12. I had the junior version , a 120-C four door convertible with twin side mounts and trunk rack.
The movie ‘The Old Dark House’ 1932 uses a Avions-Voisin ( about a 8-9 year old car in the movie ) they use it in the first scene stuck in the mud during a storm and end up getting help from Boris Karloff in an “old dark house”
Does anyone else get the feeling this delightful young lady might as well be talking about when sandscroll lead to the foundation pen and eventually we got the typewriter?
Okay. This is an information firehose. Y'all need to slow down. Most of these cars each could fill 20 minutes easy. Do that - write a script - and let video editing software be your friend. Then, we can talk about donations. If I ever travel to California, this museum will be my first stop - day pass!
Why did Ford always paint black for the "T" cars? Because black paint dries faster than any other color so Ford was able to pump out more cars a day. True.
Porsche 911 - "They were going to call it the 901 but changed it to the 911". This was because Peugeot had trademarked the zero as the middle digit of the model number and threatened to sue Porsche. So Porsche took the easy option and renamed it the 911. The rest is history
I'm guessing the camera operator was a man, but whoever it was, they need to pay attention to what she's saying. It's annoying to be hearing about some interesting detail on one car while the camera is panning around somewhere else entirely. Even so, it's a great video and I'm looking forward to more!
That chick is hopeless. Why do women barge their way into men's interests with their feminist " facts". A perfect example is the woman who denied her husband the pleasure of playing golf ! Why? Can't they just let a guy have a little distance from women, even for a short while 😢
