    VERY well done, Elliott! We are proud of you! The 32 had quite a few other changes from the 31, as you know. Beefier frame, slightly smaller wheels but bigger rubber, fuel tank in the rear, thus fuel pump on motor, bigger headlights, 3-spoke steering wheel, gauges in dash, etc. It is like SO close to being a "real car" that it makes our Model A's look more like horseless carriages

    I enjoy the variety of your videos . I followed you after you did a review of a Prius. That video was humorous and actually made a Prius interesting . Just to keep in mind, maybe others might feel the same. I like when you cover cars that the average guy can afford. Most of us can’t afford Lambos and Lamborghinis. Those vids are fun too, but the regular cars can be interesting with the knowledge you impart. I remember Hoovie doing a vid about a supercharged Park Avenue . Cars that the regular guy can afford are good vids as well. I enjoy the humor in your vids and the extensive knowledge you have

    Duesenbergs are ridiculous, 94mph in second gear, 100+ mph even with the naturally aspirated ones, 130+ with the supercharged ones, at a time when the typical family car would struggle to get up to 60mph, maybe 65 downhill with a tailwind. And that Cord was originally developed as an entry-level baby Duesenberg, before E.L. Cord, the head of Duesenberg's parent company, decided to shift it to his namesake brand instead, August Duesenberg was involved in its development

    The 1932 Ford was not a Model A ; different & stronger chassis, bigger brake drums & syncro on 2nd&top plus just about everything else. The transverse springing lasted to 1948, hardly outmoded in '32. Steering was Gemmer design, very good & used by more expensive cars. Shocks were self adjusting & top quality for an affordable car. For the roads of the era, it made the Ford 'go anywhere'. The '32 V8 was 65hp & was improved for '33 to 85hp. The '32 ford is now part of folk history & objective reviews are rare..

    you missed a good opportunity there, who are you calling a Fibroni Jabroni?! lol also the Cord is or was supposed to be a baby auburn, like it went duesenberg, auburn and cord, they were trying to make their own form of GM without the suck back then put it proved troublesome with how advanced that car was
    also transverse leaf springs on that ford model A with a V8 oh so its just like a 1953 to 2006 chevy Corvette there, where they cheapened the suspension and put that in for the front on the C4 instead of the proper shocks the C3 had, hence why they ride so terrible and cant absorb bumps or even keep up with anything vaguely european lol
    save for the ZR1 that was made and developed by Lotus that is, but that was too expensive and the viper kicked their teeth in by making a better lower cost product that as long as you know to turn in slow and dont over compensate and go easy with the loud pedal, you can actually drive it fairly regularlly as they were a little undersensitive given the dodge durango suspension gear they had
    but hey that's mopar for ya, as long as your not an idiot they last, and you gotta love how every single restomod of a vette has the first thing switched is the leaf springs to coil overs, almost like that should have been standard for years and years and years
    and hence why your C4 sits as much as it does, as it doesnt matter how good the engine is if the chassis is crap, and you should really look into changing that
