I try to add some humor to my videos to make them more interesting, and I truly believe the Seattle-ite XXI was a really interesting concept car. But if some of the comments came across as belittling and not funny, I’ll keep it in mind for future videos. Thanks for your comment!

From what I know, it came before, as I think the first appearance of Lady Penelope's limousine was in 1965 🚗

Thanks so much for subscribing! I'm really glad you liked the video ✌

It was called the 1962 Ford Thunderbird and it was a cool looking sports car. A friend of mine restored one a few years back.

Lol!

@@martinharris5017 What is so funny? It is an old concept car but the interior pan at the beginning looks like it was created recently with a CAD software! I would like to know which was used : Blender, 3D Max, Maya, touched up by Photoshop?

@@dipling.pitzler7650 Sorry i thought you were joking about the model having been created in CAD. Thanks for clarifying.

@@martinharris5017 No problem..I wonder though why there is no answer..either the CAD/CAI illustration was " borrowed" from another source or the perfect imaging was created by AI using vintage photos ..which to me would be both amazing and disturbing !

@@dipling.pitzler7650 Thanks for your comment! Since I don’t have a lot of time for 3D modeling, what I usually do is search for free models online with a CC BY or CC BY-SA license (which generally means I can use them as long as I give credit). That's why I add the (1) in the left corner of the video when showing the model and include a Google Doc in the description with the proper attribution. Once I have the model, I import it into the software I need, anything from Blender to Davinci Resolve, and then I shoot the shots. This way, I can work with pre-made models and tweak them to fit my vision. The shots are not AI-generated ✌

Interesting perspective! I guess we’ll just have to wait and see how things evolve 🚗

There is nothing questionable about battery electric vehicles, especially since there are millions of them driving around all over the globe. Besides, BEVs came first. It was internal combustion that was questionable since you had to hand crank cars to start them. It was only due to the development of battery powered cars that led to batteries that could crank start dirty, complicated petrol engines.

@@RealBLAlley I refer to batteries as a questionable energy storage in the sense that it is considered by many people as some kind of The holy Grail of sustainability and environmentalism. Electric propulsion for vehicles offers its set of challenges and problems the same as internal combustion engines

@@rieger.design No one thinks that about batteries. That is a strawman argument the EV haters attribute to supporters of EVs. EVs are superior in every way except for the batteries, specifically the size and weight and the recharge times, and to a lesser degree the chemical makeup and availability of said chemicals. The difference is that internal combustion peaked decades ago, but battery technology is improving at an exponential rate.

Thanks for your comment! Yes, they only made a 3/8 model, but even then, seeing it in person back in the early '60s must have been mind-blowing 🚗

Wow, nice catch! It is stock footage, but yep, it's from Sydney. Thanks for your comment!

I try to add some humor to my videos to keep things fun, and I really do think the Seattle-ite XXI was a cool concept car. If anything I said came off as negative or not funny, I’ll keep that in mind for next time. Thanks for your feedback!

That's another cool concept car by Ford! Might make a video about it in the future 🚗

let's say 2025

Glad you liked the video, and I really appreciate your comment! The 1968 Hemi Dart sounds like a beast, I’ll definitely check it out. Thanks for subscribing, and I’m excited to have Subscriber 18 on board for the next one 😆🚗

It indeed works. The Tyrell formula 1 car which had it did however not perform that well overall. For the reasons see my own remark. So was it actually banned or is that just an assumption?

I don’t understand it either 😂

You mean the 6 wheel Tyrrell p34- it was done t improve aerodynamics - it also improved the brakes - it was a successful design winning a race and 14 podiums - and also steered exceptionally well - "The steering is so gentle and absolutely free of reaction that you might have thought it was power-assisted!

The Elf Tyrell 6 wheel GP car was from the 70s. So this came first. After came the panther Six which was a real road car. The 4 wheel steer give superb steering and roadholding but at the cost of weight and complexity.

Nice catch!

or the panther 6, especially the larger v small rear/front wheels size

Looking at the timeline I am quite sure this directly inspired it. Only a few days ago I saw a video about the Thunderbirds on the TV 21 channel where you can actually see super 8 video’s of the Anderson’s visiting an US fair looking for inspiration. I’d have to check if it was actually the same one but I wouldn’t be surprised. But even without knowing that the similarities are simply too strong to be coincidental.

Century 21 Films channel. “Filmed in Supermarionation - The rocket powered story behind Thunderbirds”

@@marcbrasse747 Agreed...

Thank you so much for your comment! I'm glad you liked the video. Are there any cars (from 1950 to 1979) that you'd like to see me cover next? (Since I've only posted one video so far, there aren't too many cars I've covered yet 😂)
