Hi Ed, actually the Kennedy Lincoln was used as a presidential limousine up till 1977 (LBJ, Nixon and Ford used it) so they got good use out of it even though it had a horrific history. Johnson was always uneasy in the car even after having it completely rebuilt with a new interior (for obvious reasons) a permanent fixed hard top, replacement upgraded engine and painted black within weeks of the assassination. Nixon then modified it & had a hole cut in the roof so he could stand up and wave at the crowds… some people never learn.
In the 1960s I was growing up in Detroit. I actually saw the Chrysler turbine powered car being driven on Outer Drive. The shape of the car and the sound of the engine were so distinctive, that you knew immediately what it was.
The Weinermobile came to my town twice last year!! And I live in a very remote spot (albeit on Interstate 80). It stopped to get gas and it was mobbed by people who wanted to see it. It always brightens my day to see it.
I have visited the museum 5 times and the Village 4 times (it was raining heavily on our last visit) over the last 45 years. What a wonderful place. Everyone should see it!
I love this place! It was a super eerie feeling to stand that close to the Kennedy car. I'd definitely go back should we pass through the eastern part of Michigan again.
I'm a Dearborn Michigan native (born in Henry Ford hospital) and I'm a gearhead in the auto service industry and all my family has at one point in time worked for the big three and I will never forget those amazing times and Field trips to Greenfield village and the Ford museum man that was 35 years ago I miss it so much I've wanted to go back for years but just can't get away from my busy shop so thank u Ed for bringing back those fond memories I used to go all the time as a kid it's part of my childhood and my Dearborn heritage. I love in Southern California now but I'm proud to be a Dearborn native!
Great video! SS100X, JFK's car, was used until Nixon's '68 Lincoln was delivered, and that was so late in the model year that by the time it arrived at the White House, Ford had put on the '69 grille. Nixon actually used the SS100X in the early part of his first administration. There was no '65 replacement, though Ford, when it sent it back to H&E for armoring, did continue to add other mods including the '65 Lincoln taillights and a much larger, stronger air conditioner in the trunk (you can see the the vents for it on the back of the trunk lid). I don't consider myself superstitious but it would've creeped me out to ride in that car sitting in the very same spot where JFK was murdered...
I went the fall before COVID made life terrible. I loved it. It really made me think about a lot of different things, such as what we've done to get where we are today. I always enjoy your videos for that reason.
While I was living in Portland, Oregon, around 2012, I had a Wienermobile merge onto the freeway, right next to me. You don't see THAT every day! I did get a pic, thankfully!
I’ve been to the Henry Ford Museum on multiple occasions and loved it every time. Hell, the last time I was there, there was a sim racing setup. A couple laps around Brands Hatch in either a McLaren 650 GT3, Porsche 911 GT3, or a SCG 003 GT3. I managed to take the third spot on the leaderboard, and I'm still proud of that achievement to this day.
I *loved* the Ford museum so much! I got to go there as a teen, but, that was over 30 years ago. I remember the "Kennedy" presidential car too, as that was quite centre piece at the time. It's interesting to note that if you look under it, the car is supported on metal beams to bear it's armoured weight. Never got a chance to see the village too when we went - would love to go back some day.
Ed, next time you visit, come when the Motor Muster is going on. It covers the years after 1932. We now have 2 of our cars on display and would love to host you there.
My boyhood friend visited the museum in the 1950s, saw a 10-person bicycle, came home, cut up two beat-up coaster brake bikes and built his own tandem. That’ show I met him. We rode and built more tandems, moved on to fixing up our first cars (Ford Flathead). John-Paul went on to be an expert mechanic, eventually running the automotive department of a Trade School.
As an American - and a car enthusiast, I cannot recommend enough to go to BOTH of these incredible museums. Also, there is an "auto history" museum nearby and there is a Chrysler museum too in Michigan. If you want to go deep into it - go see Henry's house and Edsel's house (Edsel's is far nicer by the way).
I went there a few decades ago. The Henry Ford Museum is an amazing historical museum (modern history for those of you in Europe and the East), not just for car people either. They moved Thomas Edison's lab there which is now part of the museum. I also visited Thomas Edison and Henry Ford's winter homestead museum in Fort Myers, Florida. It is smaller but also worth seeing. I don't know whether it was affected by the hurricane which devastated Southeast Florida last year.
The homes and buildings survived the storm with minor damage. Most of the damage was to the gardens, although the massive fig tree survived unscathed. The museum reopened in mid-October.
hey ed! i went to the henry ford museum & the ford assembly plant when they revealed their new F-150 3 years ago. it was a heck of a lot of fun, glad you enjoyed it!
I went to the Ford Museum and Greenfield Village about 20 years ago. My wife and I spent two full days there and there _still_ wasn't enough time to see all of it. I'd love to go back, but old age has set in, and it's not easy to walk all day. It must have been hard to condense everything into one 10 min video, but you did great as usual! BTW: Thanks for the pic of the 60 Corvair near the beginning of the video! BTW 2: Ford also has the **other** air-cooled Chevy in their museum. It's the 1922 "Copper Cooled" 4 cyl air-cooled car developed by Charles Kettering. They were a total flop, and GM recalled all of them. I think Ford has the only one in existence (if my fading memory serves me). Maybe GM has one in their Heritage Museum?
I was rescued after a blizzard by a Wienermobile in 2009. I lived in Madison, Wisconsin, where Oscar Mayer was headquartered at the time and where the Wienermobile fleet (Wienerfleet?) was kept. That winter, Madison got about two feet of snow in a nasty storm. The day after the storm passed, I was trying to drive to my job at the local paper. My apartment was up on a hill on the East Side, and as I was going downhill, I started sliding. I ended up turning 180º and managed to stop myself by steering into the driveway of a hotel at the bottom of the hill. Unfortunately, that left me blocking the Wienermobile that was trying to leave. The Hotdogger (that's the official title for the driver) got out and helped me by throwing some kitty litter under my tires. I thanked her profusely, parked my car in the cinema parking lot across the street, and called my boss to tell him I wasn't going to make it in.
Yep! I saw one of the Oscar Mayer Wienermobiles here in San Francisco, CA at a Safeway. I got the souvenir whistle and the "I saw the Wienermobile" stickers!
Thanks for a look at the Ford Museum, we were in Detroit a few years back and didn't have time for a visit. After seeing this I wish we made time.........
Great video. Henry Ford simultaneously helped bring about the modern age and was disturbed by the changes he saw in society. What was the song you used during the intro to the Greenfield Village part?
The HFM and GFV are always great to visit. If you ever visit the area again during Christmas season, GFV is definitely worth a visit during their holiday nights!
0:35 I like how the museum displays Steve Wozniak as the builder of the first affordable personal computer! Steve Jobs is the guy that sees dollar signs in his future while Woz wanted to give it away for free.
One correction: as far as the first outdoor living history museum goes, Greenfield Village was second to Colonial Williamsburg in Virginia by several years.
Great video as always. As you were at the Ford Museum . I have suggested before, a video including the 1957 - 1959 Ford Skyliner . The first hard top convertible. Steel roof that folded at the front and retracted into the truck. I had a 1959, the year I was born. It was a very unique car.
while the automobile collection at the Henry Ford is not extensive, and there are many models that are kind of hard to get good views of or lack some description (the area where the Tucker 48 sits) it is an amazing museum filled with all manner of Americana. the Edison/GE dyno at the beginning of the video for example. i have a friend who lives literally next door and my wife and i have annual memberships. we visited for the Muppets /Jim Henson exhibit and they recent Apollo space mission exhibits... im glad you enjoyed it. another crazy wild auto museum is in Fairbanks Alaska. Fountainhead Antique Auto Museum. it has some amazing examples of cars, ive never seen before, all of them high production (for the time) makes and models. maybe the next time you come around!
That fade out of audio in the end followed immediately by your end card music at regular volume startled me lol. Loved the video by the way and they always are the highlight of my day! ^_^
I saw the Weiner-mobile as a kid in the 60’s. It drove down our block, there was a midget in it, and he was throwing Oscar Meyer weiner-whistles out to all of us kids. Good times growing up.
@@fratzogmopars cool. Daddy got me a wienerwhistle too.I wanted one of the little plastic wienermobiels that were on the tables, but the attendees took all of them. They looked just like the car that is in the museum.
The thing about the Kennedy Lincoln is also in the Ford Museum is the Lincoln rocker. The chair Lincoln was sitting in when that president was also shot dead.
Ed, I suspect you could read the telephone book, and it would be fascinating ... but this video is really great. I would love to visit this museum. Have you ever visited the automobile museum in Brussels? I really enjoyed it when I went to Europe in 2013. Happy New Year!!!
It all started one day when Henry Ford exclaimed the "History is Bunk." He received terrible backlash in the Press and the bruhaha went on for years. Then some sort of magic happened and the Village took place bringing many historical buildings.
I had a 1984 Mazda RX-7 GSL-SE (I know Japanese but my life. my choice) which had the Wankel in it and was tweaked with EFI, The interior basically was designed around you and my wife at the time swore everyday I left for work that if I crashed she would have to bury me with the car.As it basically was like a coffin. I had no issues with this. I know a Wankel isn't technically a turbine but I honestly never could redline her. She was shaped like a bullet and designed inside like a high-tech coffin. This guy's wet dream. I loved that car and had bought it used of a friend's dealership for a song. Damn why is it today that all cars look the same but if we want something different, because we may have different tastes (and are tired of trying to open someone else's car at the mall during holidays) that we have to spend so much more. Cookie-cutter doesn't work for me, which is why I drive a Nissan Cube (yeah japanese..yadaydayda)
I used to drive a Gen 3 Honda Accord as seen at around 1:00 in. Why was that on display? My guess would be that by 1991 it was the first foreign car to become a best-selling model in the US, but did you happen to notice the rationale? By the way, you score extra points for pronouncing REO oas "rio" and not "are-ee-oh"; REO did stand for "Ransome E. Olds", but it was the rock bank "REO Speedwagon" who named themselves after a fire truck and pronounced it as the latter. Years ago, I had a Dutch client called "Nederlandse Spoorwegen" which I would sometimes slip up and call "Speedwagon" by mistake ;-)
Nice! I like the “One and Done” idea would it be nice If cars would be that durable that they would serve for a generation? Maybe EVs would fill that bill
Thanks TEXACO. This company helped General Franco since near first moment against the II Republic in Spain (in fact the value of USA assistance it was close to the Hitler's help or Mussolini.
The driver sits in the middle of the Cornell Liberty Safety Car's driver sits in the middle so that the driver never has to open the door that is on the traffic's side.
0:50 the Chesapeake & Ohio railroad's Allegheny locomotive. these were built for heavy haul coal trains in the Allegheny mountains. But interestingly, the locomotive's builder, Lima, drastically underestimated the weight of the engines when they were delivered, and since railroad worker's salaries were dependent on the weight of the locomotives they operated, they were effectively scammed out of thousands of dollars and were understandably pissed when they found out. This lead to them striking, forcing the C&O to pay them back. The railroad then sued Lima for its blunder and the company never fully recovered after that incident. can't even properly estimate a locomotive's total tonnage in ohio 💀💀
Hi Ed, actually the Kennedy Lincoln was used as a presidential limousine up till 1977 (LBJ, Nixon and Ford used it) so they got good use out of it even though it had a horrific history.

Because of course it was Nixon wasn't it...
Really? I've never hear this before...
That's pretty crazy!
Consider the source.
Still can't believe that the Secret Service continued to use the limo after the JFK Assassination.
In the 1960s I was growing up in Detroit. I actually saw the Chrysler turbine powered car being driven on

We hopped over the border to check out the Henry Ford as well, not long before covid. Can't wait to check this out!
The Henry Ford Museum was amazing the time I went. Unfortunately Greenfield Village was closed then so I’ll have to go back some day.

Yes, some of those hiring cars back in the 30s were works of art. And if not art just upper level beauty by design. 💛

Brought back memories of a school trip as a kid. This trip made me fall in love with cars and to this day I remember that trip. THANK YOU 🚗 🏆
Thank you for the trip down memory lane. Happy New Year
I visited this place almost 20 years ago, nice to see it again!
One of my top favorite places on the planet! Glad you had a chance to pay a visit.

Hey Ed! Wat een mooie video weer! Jammer dat je de audio fade op het eind had.
Great video Edward! Keep up the great work. I love your accent.
Yeah he did that on purpose i bet
Hello Ed, the Henry Ford Museum is a fascinating place & you reviewed it beautifully!!! Thanks for sharing this exciting video!!! 👍👍🙂
It is a must see. My favorites were the concept cars. The two seater white Mustang concept car to me as a kid it looked like the Speed Racer car.
It amuses me how often I saw the phrase, "Henry Ford was trusted by the people" in the museum
A nice little side video to your main America trip, Ed. The village looks really cool

The HFM and GFV are always great to visit. If you ever visit the area again during Christmas season, GFV is definitely worth a visit during their holiday nights!
Best museum anywhere!!!
Love the slide guitar choice for the Greenfield intro. That looks like it was a great day. I look forward to your story on the Chrysler Turbo

I'm just mostly commenting for the algorithm, but i like how Ed has evolved. Big fan!
while the automobile collection at the Henry Ford is not extensive, and there are many models that are kind of hard to get good views of or lack some description (the area where the Tucker 48 sits) it is an amazing museum filled with all manner of Americana. the Edison/GE dyno at the beginning of the video for example.

The Ford Musuem and Greenfield Village is the Smithsonian for things with wheels... the 9th wonder of the World.
The 1st car you featured looks like the "Simpson Mobile". Just a different color and not a cartoon.
The thing about the Kennedy Lincoln is also in the Ford Museum is the Lincoln rocker. The chair Lincoln was sitting in when that president was also shot dead.
Happy New Year! Great place to visit, one day. Thanks for the video.
The most extensive Tucker display is at the AACA car museum in Hershey PA.
Hey Ed, the sound near the end is faded out too early… the last say 30 seconds are hard to understand. Had to turn up volume a few times.
Ed, I suspect you could read the telephone book, and it would be fascinating ... but this video is really great. I would love to visit this museum. Have you ever visited the automobile museum in Brussels? I really enjoyed it when I went to Europe in 2013. Happy New Year!!!

Thank you very much!!

It all started one day when Henry Ford exclaimed the "History is Bunk."
He received terrible backlash in the Press and the bruhaha went on for years. Then some sort of magic happened and the Village took place bringing many historical buildings.
Very cool 😎
I live in Michigan and did tours of these places in 4th or 5th grade I believe
Very cool video! I did notice the audio had a fade out about a minute before the actual video ended.

Was the early sound fade out meant to trick us into getting jumpscare'd or was that just me lol
Me too!
The Chrysler Turbine car honestly was an ambitious move it didnt really workout all too well.
Video #2 asking for a Kaiser Frazer video.
Also, I've seen the winermobile in person and it's hilarious
Nice! I like the “One and Done” idea would it be nice If cars would be that durable that they would serve for a generation? Maybe EVs would fill that bill
Did you miss the Bugatti Royal. Hiding back by the tucker.
Thanks TEXACO. This company helped General Franco since near first moment against the II Republic in Spain (in fact the value of USA assistance it was close to the Hitler's help or Mussolini.
Oscar Mayer mobiles are so awesome

:52 plus 1 for a Corvair😎
Glad to have you visit this side of the Atlantic. Where are you from Ed?
terrible sound level normalisation at the end.
Did you do the Rouge tour as well?
I wonder if the food court still serves rainbow bread.
So what did you think of the 1970s Lincoln made for Nixon, it’s just like my own oversized American yacht
I try to tolerate the wholesomeness and concentrate on the cars themselves. 😀
Why did the volume seem to go down during the closing narration?
Better than the Smithsonian !!
You're OK ed!
I one time found an Oscar Mayer on the road on my birthday.
Any Ford built Sherman tanks on display?
Open air museum for cars, eh?! Imagine if they did the same for brothels!
Why the drop out on the sound at the end?
Gee, the audio gets awful low towards the end, Ed. I don't quite understand it.
Where's henry's copy of mein kampf?
Hi Ed. One question, what does 10 Lizzy mean?
0:50 the Chesapeake & Ohio railroad's Allegheny locomotive. these were built for heavy haul coal trains in the Allegheny mountains. But interestingly, the locomotive's builder, Lima, drastically underestimated the weight of the engines when they were delivered, and since railroad worker's salaries were dependent on the weight of the locomotives they operated, they were effectively scammed out of thousands of dollars and were understandably pissed when they found out. This lead to them striking, forcing the C&O to pay them back. The railroad then sued Lima for its blunder and the company never fully recovered after that incident.
can't even properly estimate a locomotive's total tonnage in ohio 💀💀
Been there many times as a kid and just before I got married. Did you go into the Firestone house basement? Very Haunted. 👀😳🤔👻
The only known existing Impact EV outside of General Motors exists at The Henry Ford. GM crushed the rest.
