Guys With Their Rides Podcast: Howard's 1948 Tucker and Classic Car Collection
Welcome, fellow car enthusiasts. My name is Rudy Samsel, and I co-founded Guys with rides.com, the only dealer-free community and marketplace for car enthusiasts like you and me. I firmly believe there was a story under the hood of every classic car.
That's why I created the Guys With Their Rides Podcast. In this podcast, I feature fellow car enthusiasts with interesting rides and the fascinating stories each one tells.
In this episode, I interview Howard Kroplick and four signature classic cars from his stunning Vanderbilt Cup Races Collection:
1. 1909 Alco "Black Beast - in addition to Howard's stories about this mutiple award-winning early race car, you can watch my 360-camera view of what it's like to ride atop this beast in the following video:
th-cam.com/video/NgIWsqxW3E4/w-d-xo.html
2. 1930 Duesenberg Murphy-Bodied Model J Berline (Four-Door Convertible w/Fixed window partition)
3. Triton A2 Aerocar - one of ten Dominos Pizza Delivery vehicle prototypes from the mid-1980s that never made it to production.
4. Tucker 1044 - Howard's car is the most awarded Tucker Automobile and likely the most accurate restored example.
Only 47 of the original 51 Tucker Automobiles built remain in existence, and only ten are in running condition.
Unveiled in 1946 in a series of sketches, the Tucker Torpedo, as the sedan was called, hurtled into the future: With its swooping lines, the car appeared almost as if it were moving, even when standing still. “It was like the Star Wars of that period,” says Jay Follis, historian for the Tucker Automobile Club of America. It wasn’t only the sleek shape that resonated: The car boasted innovations, including a third, centered headlight, which swiveled to light the way around corners; fenders that pivoted defensively when the vehicle turned; disc brakes; a pop-out windshield (designed to eject during a crash, protecting passengers); a rear engine; and a padded dashboard.

Heart-Pounding Ride in the 1909 Alco-6 "Black Beast" Indianapolis 500 Racer

After filming the two upcoming episodes of the Guys Withe Their Rides Podcast, Howard Kroplick, restorer and owner of this 1909 Alco-6 "Black Beast", offered to take Rudy for a ride. Not only did Rudy jump at the chance, but he also used his new Insta360 X4 360-degree camera to capture the experience.

    Very good video showing how to replace it. Will have to do that on mine too. And it’s a low mileage car. Definitely cracks with age and being in not a temp controlled environment for a time. All it took. What price was the little cog that was broken and why not replace the other 2 beside it also ? Maybe they are not available?

      Seriously? I don't spend several hours of my day six days a week scouring Craigslist nationally for interesting rides under $15K for clowns like you to insinuate people are stupid for buying them and saying that's "Still Too Expensive." Apparently, you've been living under a rock, as the average price of a brand-new car in 2024, like it or not, is $48,401 (Source: Kelly Blue Book). With new cars averaging nearly fifty large, anything decent under $15K is a bargain these days. You can critique the various vehicles I post all you want. However, I refuse to have trolls like you call me or my other channel subscribers "stupid." Do we have an understanding?

      In those situations, you can hook up a portable battery box like you are going to jump start the car. That should provide enough power to operate the seat.

    A friend had this model car in blue back in 1973, when I was discharged in the Navy. Back then a car like this was considered a great car to bomb around in. We certainly did that! The heater was anemic, more like a baby's breath. It was faster than my MGA MK 11 but wouldn't hold a candle to my Series 1 E-Type Jaguar. Britain really screwed up back in the '70's in a number of ways with their car industry. I believe the big auto strikes at the time helped kill their auto industry (yes, you BMC), with the stake to the heart delivered by the Japanese (Datsun 240 Z, Datsun 2000 ect. Those British cars were low priced, fun to drive and a thrill to drive. Your car is beautiful! Good luck with your auction.

      Jealous? Hardly. Anyone who knows me knows that's not an emotion I succumb to. What frustrates me is how the media fawns over BaT when the site is not transparent. I now receive calls almost daily from past BaT buyers and sellers who are frustrated with that site and the lack of customer support unless you are a frequent dealer. In addition to not showing their true sell-through rate (i.e. without No Reserve auction results padding the metric), BaT rarely admits when a deal falls through. The most recent example of it is this 2010 Porsche 911 Turbo Cabriolet ( bringatrailer.com/listing/2010-porsche-911-turbo-cabriolet-29/ ) that "sold" on July 27 for $50,000 after bidding ended. In reality, the buyer could not secure the financing needed AFTER THE END OF THE AUCTION! I know this as the seller reached out to me the other day, not knowing what to do next.

  • @tylerbuck9347
    @tylerbuck9347 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I need to tell everyone something of critcal importance! I care about you as a person, and I very much urge you to listen to this to the finish: The scriptures tell us that Jesus Christ died for people's sins- now I say "our", but I speak for all who God mercifully appointed from eternity past to have hearts to receive the knowledge of this truth: that our nature is sinful and that we have transgressed God and owe Him a debt to be repaid; ( being hell; just forget your human logic behind justice ); But with God's remarkable free gift of justification and forgiveness, with Christ's death+punishment and resurrection from the dead, being the "means" you could say, for this to be won: whoever will have their faith ( and, according to my interpretation that this is not just a hearing of the facts, and saying "I believe it" with your mouth, or raising your hand at the end of sermon after the pastor's got you pumped up and asks 'who wants to say the sinner's prayer', but rather a faith that cries out to God "have MERCY on me!" and depends on Him as your only hope for forgiveness and being saved Him, that through Him, they'll be pardoned from the Judgement of their Sins by God, will be pardoned, because of His finished work, in what He came into this life to do, and be reborn, ( a change of heart about your life and reality with your knowledge of the truth that sets you free ) and will be saved! Now, being a believer is not "going to church on sundays" or wearing a cross chain or putting a cross bumper sticker on your car; in fact there's so many people who *think* they're Christiand it's scary. Once God does a work in your heart, marking you as His Own ( with the presence of the Holy Spirit ), this will bring about a life, bearing fruits of repentance! And you will be reborn as a new creature! Walking by the Spirit and not by the flesh (the will of your sinful self, and passions contrary to the things of God) Amen and good day my beloved, i hope all who read this have a heart to hear; eternity is ETERNITY, and this life is NOT eternity; it's like a vapor in the wind My prayers and best wishes to you all who read this, Grace and Peace from the Lord Jesus Christ and God the Father be with you!!
