- General Motors released a line of Futurliners as part of their vision for the future and progress. This is one of only eight customer futurliners that was built during the late 30s and early 40s. Most people remember these custom machines as being part of General Motors Parade of Progress that travelled around America showcasing its beauty and look into the future- such as the Jet engine we see inside this 1939 GM futurliner.
This futurliner is currently owned by Dennis Albaugh of Iowa in his private classic car collection, truly a site to behold, its size and magnitude cannot be done justice in the video. I hope to see these futureliners out on the road.
My grandfather worked for General Motors and was involved with these vehicles built for the Parade of Progress in 1939. I am glad to see this incredible restored one, great work.
This is a beautiful historical piece and one I would like to see again and in more detail, glad you liked it Bruce.
i remember being absolutely obsessed with the Futurliners as a kid. seeing this brought back a lot of memories, both good and bad.
Thanks for watching my video! I’m glad it took you down memory lane.
Ok, this is my favorite episode. Love this vehicle.
Hey! Raymon! The GM futurliner was just amazing in person I hope I did it justice.
Watched the Kindig crew restore this. What a vehicle.
There were, in fact, TWELVE Futurliners. This, of course, is number 11, the "March of Tools" vehicle, what with the "4 million dollars".
Of the other 11, one was destroyed in an accident in 1956, four are unknown, one is in the Dennis Albaugh Collection, three are owned by ChromeCars of Germany, one is in NATMUS, the National Automotive and Truck Museum, and one is in Sweden in private ownership.
I absolutely love the futurliners I have another one a more detailed video, ua-cam.com/video/ZtRJJg98NM0/v-deo.htmlsi=DTdYdUHU7iG0VmAu
I´ve never seen such an amazing vehicle. Deeply impressed! thanks Rana. 💯🙂
Thank you so much! Glad you enjoyed the GM futurliner - lots more amazing videos coming up
Very interesting, you have a great eye to catch things people really enjoy seeing and learning about. Than you 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
Thanks Doc, there is some very interesting videos coming soon in the next couple of days I know you will enjoy.
That's a real treat!
Good morning. Thank you
Very cool............ 👍👍
I saw a red one in spring field ma and was amazed
I didn’t have time that day or else I would have done a more detailed video, only found out afterwards how cool and vintage this is!
GM only built a couple of these Beauties, thanks Rana you are going to really like Her. It has been said that Dave Kindig spend 4 Million Dollars to rebuild this one.
It really needs to be seen in person to appreciate how big it is
Ryan below is right, the size of it would not fit in my camera, that’s how big it was, up close in person it had its own presence!
@@ryanclayson2742 well said Ryan, in person it has such an affect on you, the camera does no justice.
They actually built dozens. GM had a road show with masses of them at once.
Rich computer dude paid for it.
Awesome!
I watched the build on Kindig's show. This truck is so rare and unique it should have it's own large space, not cluttered up with gas pump stuff.
Definitely an awesome truck, I actually have another better video of another futurliner on my channel, you might like it.
Very nice
Thank u!
I am amazed!
glad you liked it, i do however have a better video with one of the other futurliners on my channel

This is the vehicle that finally convinced me to watch Bitchin Rides lol
So this is like my first time I've ever seen one what was it actually used for
check out the full video on the futurliner here is the link its also on my channel, more in depth and what it was use for - ua-cam.com/video/ZtRJJg98NM0/v-deo.htmlsi=lSwkUaDNh8Kcr9_j
I would love to build a replica of this. But make it into a camper instead. And it would still have to look like a future liner.
That’s a pretty neat idea and you will have so much room to do what you need! Unfortunately only four exist today and over the next couple of days I will have a detailed longer walk through of the futurliner - a different one to this one on the channel!
Me too, it has to be a replica with RV theme. Magnificent build by GM..
Haha it doesnt have a smallblock chevy in it, it has a straight six. That guy should know if he works at the museum
They did not use small block chevy, the gas engines were GMC 302 inline 6 cyl. engines. The small block didn't come out till 1955
Spot on! 1955 was the first year for the small block chevy , thank you!
They also used a 4cyl diesel on some as well.
Love it! I wish they have reinstalled a diesel engine.
there a better longer detailed video on the futurliner - I did an updated video here is the link ua-cam.com/video/ZtRJJg98NM0/v-deo.htmlsi=C6xy9ac2y9UW2ksj
her voice pitches my tent
How much
No 10 still has a Detroit.
Did she say that Kids liked F350s? In 1940?
it would have been equivalent to teenagers love for the f350s today because they are so high up, similarly teenagers of the 40s being teenagers would have appreciated the size and height of the futurliner.
there is also another detailed longer interview if you like the futurliners on the channel i did recently.
@@RanasRadar thank you
welcome! thanks for watching my videos i hope you like the channel

This was supposed to be the future what happened!
PAS DE CEINTURES DE SÉCURITÉ FALLAIS PAS TOMBER EN DU SIEGE AHAHAHAH
Wast of space I’d turn it into a camper
It’s not a bad idea but might lose its authenticity
Someone already did that and they're putting it back to stock in Germany
That curved camera is garbage
Is that kid thanking mommy and daddy like he should be?
