Fun fact how to recognise that the tatra in 5:07 is pre-WW2 and tatras you showed before are made after WW2 is the side of the steering wheel, because before occupation by germany, people in czechoslovakia were driving on left side of the road. But it was changed because in germany they drove on the right side

Nice collection. Some remarkable points you missed. The red Tatra is the model that inspired Ferdinand Porsche for the VW Beetle. It was so "inspired" that Tatra sued Volkswagen for patent infringment and would have won if Germany hadn't invaded Czechoslovakia inn 1938. On the Citroën models shown as people have mentioned the DS is iconic but it is not the only special exemplary. The traction (the black one) from 1938 was also one of the most innovative cars of its time. It's the first mass produced car with front wheel drive with wielded unibody. The model in your video has also the peculariety of using a wood gas generator for fuel.

you took it from my mouth, I was also going to comment the Traction Avant, people dont know that it was first European car without a frame but unibody and modern multipoint suspension. It was so popular before WWII that Citroen even opened a factory in Germany. The DS, when it came out, was instantly sold out, and funny fact is, that it was using the very same engine as the aforementioned Traction Avant.

The Tatra was known as the nazi killer. Nazi (German) officers stole them and killed so many of themselves (score😉) that the German authorities banned them from driving them. The Tatras had swing axle rear suspension with air cooled V8s slung out of the back. Ferdinand Porsche copied Tatras when he designed the beetle in the 30s. These also had swing axles with an air cooled motor hanging out the back, equally hopeless for stability, but cheap and popular.

Hi, I am from Slovakia, was born in Czechoslovakia, and the Tatras are very cool cars an they were very modern constructed for that time. In my childhood a lot of them run on the streets, but only comunistic politicians are people with very important functions drove such cars Tatras are cool cars. It was a privilege. normal common people were not allowed to have such cars.The middle light of tatra 603 is turnable in the side you turn your steering wheel.

The Volvo 66 is interesting. It started out as a DAF car, a Dutch truck and car manufacturer (they still make trucks), but the cars weren't a big success. So they sold it to Volvo. Volvo put in a Renault engine. My grandfather was a Renault mechanic and in his free time he serviced some cars (only Renaults but because of the Renault engine he had some customers with the small Volvo's). It used the variomatic transmission (still in use by some manufacturers like Toyota as the CVT transmission). These cars could drive the same speed going forward as backward. In the 80's we had a program on tv where people would race these cars backward.

Could you give a link to these reverse races - sounds hilarious and very cool. I think the Volvo 360 GLT, with rear transaxle, was also a DAF. An Australian adventurer, who made films, stubbled upon a little DAF in Africa with the variomatic transmission, and fell in love with it. Was easy to repair and the transmission's action was easy to understand with basically cones and bands.

They used them to rally here and the motoring journalists rated them very highly. Unfortunately we never got the awesome coupe with the pop up headlights and the grille under the bumper - 480 ? They looked really good and different. We eventually got the C30 coupe. I do like the Polestars.

Wish we had got this and more French cars in Australia - but so far away, small market, ultra competitive, huge tariffs, local content laws, emission laws, hard to establish a dealer network and suited for Australian conditions, compliance, exchange rate, right hand drive etc. There was also the Renault Vel Satis.

Hey Ian, this is truly a great collection with above average density of quirky stuff and one-offs and I love it :) Couple of cars worth diving into: -I don't know too much about Tatra but I'd watch you learning about their weird air cooled rear engined cars. Really cool company. -The Dymaxion Replica you had a look at reminded me of a brilliant automotive artist called Randy Grubb (founder of company 'Blastolene') who used to regularly be on Jay Leno's RU-vid channel to present his insane creations. This guy does *all* the work so he for instance ball peen hammers his own aluminum bodies (crazy, but very cool) on most of his slightly retro, steampunky builds such as: -The Tank car featured in Gran Turismo 5 with a M47 Patton Tank engine which is insane. -The Decopods which are very cool -The Decoliner which is very, very cool. You're able to steer either from the roof or the regular driver's seat. -The 'Piss'd off Pete' V12 Detroit Diesel Hot Rod, the king of any classic car meet -The Rocket II Trike, powered by a blown 426 Hemi (completely over the top) Any of his work is well worth checking out, I truly hope you have a look at some of his stuff bc I think you'll love it. HOT ROD Network did a shop tour of his 6 years ago and every vehicle I listed is on Jay's channel. -The car built by the airplane company out of Denver, CO just looks insane.. I guess back then there was a whole culture of invention which drove designers to implement air craft grade design (low weight, low drag) in regular consumer cars which allowed use of the cheapest & most reliable engines available. -The minivans at 8:17 and 8:38 are part of a bit of a revolution in the late 90s/early 00s. Renault had built a car called the "Espace" which introduced the MPV class of vehicles into the European market (Mazda ended up naming their model 'MPV') and they sold like hot cakes in Europe. They were so brilliantly designed: The engine would submarine under the car in a crash instead of going through the fire wall and unaliving the passengers. It had 7 seats (5 of them usually folded down so you've got a pretty big trunk with up to 5 passengers or basically a delivery vehicle if you folded down all but the driver seat) but the footprint of a sedan and was built on a space frame which meant it was lighter than most sedans. By the year 2000, almost all manufacturers had their own model to compete in this market, from Chrysler's Voyager to the Vauxhall/Opel Zafira. Sadly, we all know about the infamous 'soccer-mom' image which became associated with these and made them very unpopular to be seen in. You could even argue the SUV trend is a direct consequence of MPVs falling out of favour, even though these 15-20 year old cars are like 20-50% more fuel efficient than an average modern SUV which usually weighs much more and has a much worse drag coefficient. I don't like SUVs much, but this isn't he place for that :) -At 10:10 you're coming up to the most innovative car ever, it's truly a marvel of engineering and French pride. The name is actually a bit of a pun, since 'DS' is a double entendre with the word for 'déesse' which means 'goddess'. The Citroen DS you were looking at is just so incredible, I don't know where to start and I know I can't do it justice here. Dang, I could talk about just the suspension for hours. As a reasonably patriotic American, I'm sure you know all about how softly sprung Cadillacs are and how they feel like you're sitting on a sofa on a boat as you're going down the road. But if you're going down a slightly rougher road, you'd still notice you're on a slightly rough road, but in a DS from the 50s that was set up properly, you wouldn't notice *anything*. There are so many details I could nerd out over but I'd much rather watch someone knowledgable introduce this to you and us viewers, just like you did with the 2CV which was perfect BTW. OK, I can't help myself from listing just a few tidbits about this car: -On the day it was presented in 1955, it sold 12.000 units. -There is no brake pedal, instead the speedo tells you how long your braking distance will be depending on your speed. You brake by pressing a knob on the floor between the pedals. -It had a button on the dashboard to pneumatically raise and lower the suspension for better aero on the highway/ground clearance for parking etc. You can even change tires without a jack. -President of France, Charles de Gaulle, survived numerous assassination attempts on 22nd of August 1962, in his presidential limousine, an armoured version of the DS. Although the assassins had shot all four tires on the car, the suspension design allowed it to escape numerous attempts on his life without ANY tires on the rims. -The headlights were revolutionary: The later models had dual headlights with the inner bulb moving up to 90° with your front wheels to illuminate corners, along with a system invented by the company Panhard (Panhard bars anyone?) which auto levelled the headlights during braking, acceleration and bumps. As I've said, I could go on but I won't, this has already been long enough. French design has something really refreshing about it, it's unconventional and weird for sure but it's never useless or poorly envisioned. There are features implemented within this 20 year long production cycle which make most car brands/designers on this earth blush with shame at how both brilliantly and bravely Citroen navigated around the challenges they were presented with. Last but not least, there's a rally version of the DS, it's hilarious :) Cheers Ian, I hope you and yours are doing well. Keep the excitement going!

That car called Ligier is probably a cart made to be used at F1 race tracks, to take people around in the pit lane and parque fermé. Ligier was a race car manufacturer and F1 race team, like Lotus for example, in the 70s and 80s.

The 1956 Beetle is the model car that my dad had in Germany at that time. I spent a lot of my time then riding in the parcel compartment under the rear window behind the rear seat backs. Had in 1956 and 1957 holiday trips down to southern Germany and Switzerland travelling in that car. We had that car until 1959 when the family migrated to Australia. There in early 1960 with first employment at the Australian VW factory on assbly line, my dad bought a VW Beetle at employee discount as our first car. To be replaced by a VW Station wagon mid 1960s. That was written off in a early 1970s T-bone smashed by a careless driver and overturned. Sliding over 100m down the road, roof skewed sideways collapsed roof to just above steering wheel level over the driver. Sad too as dad worked in VW engine overhaul/race prep engine build and had up graded the engine with Porshe racing heads. But insurance collected the wreck so quick we did not get a chance to recover those Porsche heads and restore the standard engine configuration. Suspect someone got a real special second hand engine, if not just metal recycled.

Citroën had to engage people to explain to the customers how it works the Peugeot 205 GTI 1.6 is considered as one of the best french cars of the 50 60 last years wow there's a Daf and a Citroën traction!!! the previous version of the Daf (which is rare in europe to) was equipped with the fist variable transmission while the traction (called tractbar or something like that in UK if my memory is good) was the first front wheel drive car produced in serie (not the first but the first massively produced...my grand-father had one with 9 seats) and this one is really specific version because it works with a lean gas coming from combustion of wood and these type of gas was in use during WW2

The last car in the museum is the metallic prototype of the Citroen Mehari. It made it to production as a fiberglass car and Citroen sold some 150.000 of them. During the late '70s some crazy pyromaniac in Paris couldn't resist setting fiberglass Meharis on fire. He managed to burn more than fiour hundred of them before he was arrested by the French police.

Fun fact: Auto Union, as he said was the old name for AUDI. One other meaning for the word 'AUDI', is the four letters for Audi, stand for A - Auto, U - Union, D - Deutschland (Germany), I - Ingolstadt (the city in Germany where Audi was started). It's also a Latin word!!!

Wow - awesome video, awesome car collection. So good to see these cars in the US. Helps inform the general US public about these cars, that you may not have got and the innovations and advancement. The Light 15 Citroen, was first FWD I think, and other things, including independent suspension all round.? The big Citroen was an ID - the one skewed upside down, vertically on its debut at the Paris motor show in the 1950's. Everyone was stunned - so ahead of it's time, and masses of orders were taken there and then, guaranteeing it's production. The DS is the evolution with the big frog headlights that turn on the inside with the steering wheel, so you can see on corners, where you are looking, as normally your beam is straight ahead. Have come back into fashion - eg Volvo. However, when you see the dates on the Tatras, it just blows your mind, and actually makes them look far more advanced than the Citroen. Perhaps our current cars aren't as modern as they appear when relative to our time versus back then

It's a Tatra 6x6 815, I have a plastic one at home when I was little, so I used to transport sand on it, Dad has two world patents for a tubular frame, it's still used today, and before that an air-cooled diesel was used, it had Euro 5 emissions, it's expensive in Europe diesel A Tatra needs difficult terrain to be economically efficient, the bigger off-road legend is the Praga v3s 6x6, it is lighter so it fits in the mud, it is still used today but as a forest pick-up or well drilling rig, production started in the 1950s, but the cars were military for the cold war and on the roof they have a hatch for a machine gun, the car is very slow 40 miles per hour, it is also used for railway repairs, and the engine is a military multi-fuel diesel, in case of war, gasoline with motor oil or gasoline and diesel could be used 1: 1

Fantastic auto museum. Some of the cars look more like children's pedal cars from the 1950s / 60s. I like French cars so i like the Citroen ID model and CV 2s there. The Russian Tatras are amazing, the 1996 model in the red color is excellent. Thanks for posting this video. From Carl in New Zealand.

"Look at this little Fiat" Yay, my favourite Fiat the Panda was in the picture! Did you know it's featured in the Netflix series Love Death & Robots season 1 episode "Three Robots". I do miss a Simca 1000, Lancia Delta and the Mercedes/Daimler Benz L319 (this one's for truck lovers) in the collection, but you can't have everything, just glad the Panda is there. That Mehari prototype was actually altered for production and consumer use to have ridges in the plating to give it more stability the prototype was made out of flat sheet metal because that was the design, but it didn't hold up and made too much noise when driving. And also the external AC unit was an American invention, sorry for going car nuts😅

A D.A.S. sticker! How cool is that? In my childhood, many cars in West Germany had a D.A.S. sticker on the rear window. D.A.S. means "Deutscher Automobil Rechtschutz", a now defunct German car insurance company. Nice to see that one again, a memory from the 1970s. Back then, many West German cars also had stickers from "Traumlandpark", "Phantasialand", "Fort Fun" or the "Panoramapark" right next to it, well-known amusement parks in West Germany.

No shade on you, just a bit surreal from a european perspective to see how you are unaware of for example a Peugeot 205gti, one of the most legendary hot hatches ever. I guess it would be like asking the average european about which is their favorite 1970s american light pick up truck. 😀 14:45 Is a XL1, the one is for 1 liter fuel consumption per 100km driven; It was one of VW early 2000s vanity projects, in this case to make the most fuel efficient car in the world that was mass produced and still could be used as a daily driver.

11:53 Yes, I know the badge says Volvo but it is actually fully a DAF, re-branded when Volvo took over the DAF car division in 1975. It's a DAF 66 re-branded as Volvo 66. It has a variomatic CVT gearbox which actually allowed it to go as fast rearward as it could go forward. It was even made into a military vehicle which soldiers nicknamed the "garter-jeep" (jarretel-jeep)as its transmission used two rubber belts

My granddad had the same model like the green little Volvo when he lived with us. It was an automatic gear. Although we used to learn driving in manual cars in the Netherlands, I often took his car for a ride when I got my driving license. These Volvo cars, and also the Dutch DAF version, were often driven by elderly folks back in the 70's and 80's. So it was not cool to drive as a youngster. You didn't want to be seen in such a car, especially by the young ladies :). So one day my granddad offered my younger brother a drop off at his school. He didn't turn down the offer, but he begged my granddad not to drop him off in front of the school yard. Well.., it turned out different and my brother got out in front of a full crowded school yard!

The white car at 9:10 isn't the smallest. There was a car called a Peel P50 which was smaller than that AND it was UK road legal. 11:17 is a Peugeot 205 GTi. This was one of the cars from back in the late 70's and early 80's when smaller cars known as "Hot Hatches" really started to get popular. The VW Golf GTi was another one. 11:41 is a Fiat Panda. It feels like a milk crate on wheels when you drive them hard. Fiat did sell a version called the Panda Bisley which was 4 wheel drive. The black car at 12:12,the Citroen Berline 11 with the strange pods over the fenders was a early attempt at a hybrid vehicle. The right side pod was a filter system for the left hand pod. You burnt Coal, yes coal, which gave off Methane which they use to run the standard gasoline engine it is fitted with. That was the Gazogene system.

Maybe I am a bit nostalgic for these Volvos since my dad drove these but the Volvo v40 from 1996 did 540.000km without any isssues until we eventually got a new vehicle in 2012.
