I totally agree. I'm not a big hot rod fan to be 100% honest so I try to look for the cars that are the most original that I could possibly find. You got the name of the tune and the band, but I need the lyric that comes next for your comment to be posted to the top
Awesome choices.. I was reading somewhere 37 was the first year for Ford to get away from the steel push rod brakes but they went to cable brakes but I wasn't 100% sure on the source so I didn't add that .. there's a lot of deciphering through information doing this job. Some of it is completely false. Lol
Jay, in 1973, my brother found one in a barn, and he bought it. It was turned into a hot rod back in the 1950s. It had a Chevy 265 V8 and the dashboard from a 1951 Mercury. It was a 2 door sedan. It had 4 shocks. It was a pain in the ass to drive. First was the cable brakes. Next, when you opened up the 265 the wind would get under the fenders and running boards and the car would start to lift off the ground, this started at 85 MPH and get worse from there.
Wow, that's crazy. Thank you so much for sharing that memory with us. I was going to add the crank out windshield idea is a stellar idea but if you're driving down the road at 50 miles an hour and there is a truck coming at you like 18 wheeler on the other side the wind from his truck will go through your car and it will be like you're driving a parachute. It's a really crazy feeling.
Very nice original,(cept for the turn signals), Ford. I had some '38 Ford body parts. Very similar and with the hood ornament hood release. Thanks, Jay for your own style of car show.
Thank you so much for watching happy you still dig the program after all these years =) I'm going to switch up the intro more this year. I think I have to come up with better hooks. Lol
I agree on the baby Zephyr styling. Someone already mentioned the 8v battery. I'm wondering if that particular car had the 'big block' 85hp or the 'small block' 60hp engine. It looked like the 221 to me. The locking steering column was put there by Ford to help stop gangsters from stealing them, as Clyde Barrow, and John Dillinger both loved to steal them! That Ford looks like an original survivor car, which is pretty cool. The paint, while checked and dull, could easily be the original. I think you accessed the spare tire thru the interior on this car. Tons o fun in the rain or snow. I bet this car would be a lot of fun to drive! WYR= Ford for both. For once, the Ford looks more modern than the other cars. Great video, Jay!
Hi Jay. That is a very very original car, so comments on the upholstery materials have much value. On 2 wipers vs one, I imagine that a second wiper was an option on the 36 Ford, and would be surprised if that was any different for 37. For your interest, the small 60hp V8 (though gutless and unpopular in the US) outlived the 85jp version and was used in British Fords and French makes Matra and Simca well into the 60s. In the later 60s it was even revised with hemi heads in Brazil if I remember correctly. Cheers
@@What.its.like. I'm betting it goes up and then forward at the end of travel to act similar to the "No-Draft" vent windows that GM already had for a few years.
Definitely like the 36 dash and steering wheel better than the 37. What's that doohickey at the base of the rear window shown at 12:25? WYR 1. I'll go with the Plymouth solely because that was Dad's 1st car. 2. I have never seen a 37 Willys! That is too cool! I want it!!
I like this live format, was getting a little tired of the usual. That battery is actually an 8 volt battery. Notice the four caps. They were used to boost the cranking speed. I worked okay, but you had to adjust the voltage regulator so it would keep charged.
Yeah, I switched up from time to time especially like the intros people were giving me feedback about maybe changing the intro I'm not 100% sure it's gonna stay like this for a long time. I might change it to something else as well. Have to start with something. Thank you so much for the feedback =) I also wanted to add all of these Premier live. I tried to put them out around 8pm eastern time
For WYR, it’s Ford for the first scenario, Graham for the second (I like its looks). Since you did ask, I like the ‘36 steering wheel better…it had more character. But I like the ‘37’s overall look better.
I'm not sure what the algorithm wants anymore. I've never really chased it. This channel is more or less than Evergreen channel because the cars are older ( have often thought about doing a couple newer cars but I'm not really into newer cars to be 100% honest if I could have things my way, I would have a bunch of 30s 40s and 50s 60s cars lol and a Prius as an appliance car lol )
I really enjoyed today’s video. Perhaps I can relate better as these cars were common in my country back in the day. Were those cars common in your country, Jay.
This particular style of Ford here in the states is often hot rodded you see way more customized than you do in stock condition I prefer most cars all cars really be in stock condition.. I'm 35 years old so they were never prevalent during my time here on this planet I do see them from time to time but most of the time like I said they're usually heavily customized
First choice, '37 Ford. Second choice, '37 Graham. This car isn't perfect but not a big mess of patina either. The cool thing is it could be driven like this and would look very good as is. If a car is perfect show quality it may not be a good idea to drive it on the street. This would be a great driver. Oh, I like the dash and steering wheel better than the banjo wheel.
My first car was a 1937 Ford Coupe. I think it was a Standard because I remember that it was a 60hp engine. I bought it in 1959, just before my 16th birthday and before I had a driver's license. I paid $65 for it. It was in unusual condition. -It was painted a color called "Tahitian Red" -It had big tires on the back and small ones on the front. That and the paint job made it look like a real hot rod! -It had been put on a 1940 frame so it had hydraulic brakes -It also had a 1940 dashboard and steering column so it had a column mounted gear shift but it still had a hole in the floor for the original lever! -With the different dashboard the knob for the opening windshield stuck through the rectangular hole where the radio was supposed to be. -It had the original mohair upholstery with cotton stuffing coming out in multiple places. -First gear was damaged so it only had two gears. If you stopped in high gear it stuck there until you got the car moving again. I had been saving money since I was 13 to buy a car so I might have been a little too eager. At the time I had a job but was only earning $4.00 per week, enough to buy four gallons of gas but not enough to repair the problems. I got to take my girlfriend for a ride once but only because my parents weren't home. I didn't have a license or insurance. I sold the car after about three months to a school mate. He planned to put in a bigger engine and took the front fenders and hood off, placing them outside of his garage. The parts were stolen and he junked the car. People are always asking me how I remember this kind of obtuse information when I can't remember what I was doing an hour ago.
Cars from the thirties don’t seem to get a whole lot of attention in the classic car world and are under appreciated, but they are totally awesome with great style!
They totally get appreciated here on this channel. That's my goal. I want to put the 30s cars back on the map. They're so elegant and so much innovation came from that era. A lot of features aren't even on cars nowadays like freewheeling...
I totally agree. I try to feature the most original cars that I possibly can find so then that way everybody can see what they were really like. I'm happy you concur.
When I was about 5 years old my dad had a 37 Ford. I liked to run to the corner and stop him so I could ride on the running board back to the house. How did kids ever survive with the crazy stuff we did? LOL
I love banjo steering wheels and the bumpers on the 1936 are also cool, but I really like the teardrop headlights on the 1937. The Lincoln Zepher coupes were cool for the really long rear ends in profile; looked like they were leaping forward. I questioned how you switched to high besms, but then you cleared that up with the steering wheel discussion. Is that panel behind the seats movable to get to the spare? WYR: I like the side feature line on the Chevy, but overall, the Ford gets my vote. The Willys is my choice for WYR2 because of its oddball appearance. There are two lines that follow the lyric in the NTT depending on the verse.
I like the proportions of this better than the Zephyr, but wish it was a 'Deluxe" version. The original paint is in surprisingly good shape; something you'll never get from the clear-coat paints used since the 90's. Someone added an 8V battery which was kind of common but they did cost more. Made for better cold starting but they also shortened the life of the light bulbs. Wet-cell lead-acid batteries are 2V per cell, so counting the cells tells you the voltage. This one still has the 60HP engine; many got swapped for the 85HP versions later on. These didn't have the overheating issues of the bigger engines. They were also used in other cars and for industrial engines for many decades due to their low cost and great reliability. Henry Ford tends to get idolized today, but he was something of a dictator and he flat-out refused to put a 6-cylinder engine in his cars for a very long time even though the public preferred them. The steering wheel lock and other methods of anti-theft came about because car theft was both easy and rampant. States didn't share stolen car info in one place like they do now,and while interstate car theft had long been a Federal crime you could easily sell a stolen car in another State which could be registered and used with just a bill of sale. That practice continued into the 90's in some places. It also wasn't hard to get bogus driver's licenses for ID to facilitate this practice, and unless you checked with the State the car was stolen in you'd never know. The "Banjo" steering wheels do look cool. WYR the 37 Ford wins but the Plymouth looks OK. Hard to pick between the Ford and the Graham, but the Ford looks more modern. The Willys front end looks weird, especially the headlight housings. BTW, the "Radio Nurse" you show in the ad later is highly collectible if you have both the transmitter and receiver in good condition;m usually only the receiver survives.
Thank you so much for taking the time to add all of that information and insight greatly appreciate it. I should've looked at that battery a little bit better. That's why I was a little bit hesitant in the video... So much for the insight about the radio at the end as well I try to look for cringe ads from the time period or just advertisement pieces from the era
My neighbor has one in green and its all origional and in great condition. I first got to drive it back in 1982. Been sitting ever since. But its clean and well loved just does not have a ton of value.
6:35 Wonder how aerodynamic that shape is? It seems Ford created a new appealing aero shape with the Zephyrs and with this car where Chrysler had failed a few years before with Airflow. 26:01 Heaters were an extra cost option that year, and that probably going way back to the Model T's. WYR 1. Ford 2. Graham (if I could also have a full parts car!) Otherewise, Ford.
37 ford in both casses. In side view, I love grille, and how you can see right thru it and out the other side of the car. same is true of the louvers on the hood.
I love these survivor cars. I wonder how much of the paint is original. This would be a cool car to own and drive. I would do my best to keep it in good shape and not restore it. I'd choose the Ford in the first scenario and the Graham in the second. I do like the Chevy too.
