Considering the precision necessary, the internal combustion engine and cars are modern miracles. Cars are also freedom. Go where you want, when you want on your own terms. No need to wait in the rain for a bus or plane that may or may not be on time. Mr. Pete's travelogues are great . What a wonderful museum. Thanks.
Oh my! Had no idea this museum existed. Thanks so much for showing these videos. You just filled my bucket list. This will be as close as I get to see this beautiful complex. Thanks again Mr. Pete. 👍🏻🇺🇸
Thank you for sharing. Sensory overload, not only the cars but the buildings, art work, & sense of the engineering, design, tooling and talent that is represented.
Thank you for sharing. As you said videoing narrows your joy of seeing the sights. And i for one thank you for the sacrifice. I hope you got to tour first before taking video.
Thanks for the tour Lyle. I hope Mrs Peterson was not too bored by the end of the day. I was interestd in the Condor motorcycle, so did some research on it, as it looked like it had a Ducati engine. It was a ¨Swiss Army¨ motorcycle and they were fitted with engines made by Ducati or Spanish company under license. I had a 250 Ducati about 50 years ago.
Good morning Mr. Pete, Nice of you to take the class and I on this field trip. Always good to go on one now and a then. Now time for more class room instructional learning?
I was surprised that the Tucker interior was so spartan (guess I expected at least a radio somewhere). Next time I'm in Michigan, I'll have to visit the museum.
9.20....... No problem not spending money on pinball here in my youth, never stuck a dime into a machine of any type. ...... WE didnt get allowances often and when we did it was a dime (60s /70/s)and worked for room and board on our farm. Great videos!
Brian from Ma.Simpley amazing from the cars to soap box cars wood work is beautiful my home town has one of those diners still were you had chicken salad wich i also love i had breakfest there at times any who THANKS Besafe
Hot rodders used Caddy engines and the 500 cubit engines were used in rail dragsters back in the 90's. Your tour was much better than Iron Traps. Would have been neat to see the restoration shops to see what they were fixing or machining.
Thanks for sharing with us. Just a point, but could have included complete shots of the descriptive plaques. Only a couple of seconds are necessary, as they can be paused.
There used to be a nice Tucker display. The Lincoln Park Michigan historical museum, behind the paint store, is supposed to have a nice Tucker exhibit.
Another very good video Mr. and Mrs. Pete. It looks like a remarkable place to visit. I suppose the "gnome mobile" was scaled up in size so that the actors of relative normal size would look small next to the car. Just a guess since I don't know and never saw the movie.
Seeing those wringers makes me wince. I got the fingers of one hand caught in one while trying to get a tea towel started through it. No damage, but it hurt like fury. I later found out that my older brother had, as a toddler (and back before my earliest memory), got caught in one as well. He got taken up to the shoulder, to the point that it tore some skin. People used to comment on our hyper-awareness around open, moving, machines, and our tendency to keep fascinated "city kids" from getting too close to them. I think those old washer machines had something to do with that. ...... You can imagine our shock at hearing about one of my older sister's classmates, who had gotten herself in very serious trouble. The short description was "She got her (insert much admired female feature here) caught in a wringer." Of course the other kids giggled over that, but we didn't. We had a fair idea of what that would be like ... and a much weightier grasp on just how much trouble she was in.
I have not been there in many years. Clearly they have added a huge amount. When I was a kid they had a steam locomotive on display (i always suspected they intended to add a train ride to go around the campus) They had a small train station that was where the double decker bus would start it’s circuit around the campus. Last time I was there, my wife had a blast finding typos in almost all the displays.
Don't be surprised. I remember thinking Pintos, Pacers, Gremlins and Escorts will never be worth anything, but I am seeing more and more at car shows. I wish I still had my Rabbit diesels. There was a time when Model As were junkyard trash. Time marches on...
Do not remember a joke but have heard reference as a situational analogy even to this day. Have also heard stories about the dangers and injuries, mostly to the hands. If that is the joke, it is not very funny, especially considering the anatomy referenced. AvE would probably disagree though, so laugh it up if so inclined. 😊
The Tucker. What could have been. I got to see one up close including the engine compartment a few years ago. The original owner had one it brand new in a raffle. Had to park it because companies kept cancelling his insurance. He sold it because the was no way to drive it. The Airflow, Tucker, Jeep FC and many others were just to far ahead of their time.
Like I told the guy who tried to buy my 427 Corvette. -" It's not worth anything because it's not for sale"- He said everything is for sale, but he wouldn't bet me. Too bad 'cause I would have taken his shorts. (It is the car I had my dad buy for me when I was in Vietnam and was waiting for me when I got back to the world. NOT FOR SALE!) There ARE people who do not think everything has a price, you know. You think the national debt would get the museum to sell the Disney set? How 'bout the Smith selling the X-15. ,,,, Not worth anything because they are not for sale.
i love those old cars, they are so beautiful. for me most of the new ones look like the obese offspring of a transformer (the robots from the movie) mating with a nike shoe :)

You are first! Congratulations!!! I always get a kick out of the rude replies to the winner. Sore losers I guess. Sucks to be them, huh? Have a great day, James!
@@seanobrien7169 I get a kick out of the sore losers' comments, too. I responded to one with the quip: "Don't cry. It's OK to be second place. You'll always be First Loser in my opinion! "
Sipping bourbon, watching Mr. Pete, admiring the cars and enjoying the music. Life is good.

Outstanding! Thank you for an enthralling tour! A priceless collection, indeed!
Thanks for taking the time to share your passion with us. Love all the old brass cars.
Excellent videos Mr Peterson, it was a great looking museum. Thank you for the tour! I really enjoy your videos.
Great Museum, I love Tuckers. Thanks for sharing
Thank you for sharing. Sensory overload, not only the cars but the buildings, art work, & sense of the engineering, design, tooling and talent that is represented.
Thanks for the grand tour Mr. Pete including a nice cameo of the Missus.
thx for taking us along
I truly enjoyed this, and I thank you for taking us with you. Thanks, Mr. Pete! :-)
Nice trip, great displays, super idea!

Thanks for the great video!!!
Thank you for sharing.

Loved the video Mr. Pete, Thanks!!!!!!
Thoroughly enjoyed the museum tour. Thank you.
If I make it through this pandemic, I am going to visit that museum. Thanks for bringing it to our attention.
what a collection of beautiful vehicles etc.. must be worth a fortune..thanks for sharing the tour
Very interesting museum. Thanks for the video.
VERY entertaining videos Lyle. Thank you so much for what YOU share with us. May Jesus always bless you and yours.

THanks Lyle for another SUPER video. If you really wanted to see everything 1 day is not enough. Lovely colours in the Autumn Trees.
Thank you Lyle. Makes me want to go on a road trip :)
That has to be the shiniest hay loft floor I have ever seen!
No old Patina paint around here!
Great part two....Thanks!
Very neat!
Thanks for taking us along.
Great Content!
I think Morgan Freeman drove Miss Daisy. Great showing of the cars, thank you.
Great tour, thanks.
Awesome video, Mr. Pete. I need to visit that place soon, I am not too far away in Columbia City, IN.
I was surprised that the Tucker interior was so spartan (guess I expected at least a radio somewhere). Next time I'm in Michigan, I'll have to visit the museum.
Thank you Mr. Pete you've added to a trip back home for a trip to the museum.
9.20....... No problem not spending money on pinball here in my youth, never stuck a dime into a machine of any type. ...... WE didnt get allowances often and when we did it was a dime (60s /70/s)and worked for room and board on our farm.

You can imagine our shock at hearing about one of my older sister's classmates, who had gotten herself in very serious trouble.

That's funny, dad sad the same thing happened to his mother...all the time...
I have not been there in many years. Clearly they have added a huge amount.

If you ever go to the Crawford in Cleveland make sure to give me a shout.
Maybe u can do a video on how to wire up a Forward , reverse drum switch on a lathe
What is the grinding machine at 20:04? Cam grinder, perhaps?
Morning sir
I'm second! Someday my Prius will be there!
Don't be surprised. I remember thinking Pintos, Pacers, Gremlins and Escorts will never be worth anything, but I am seeing more and more at car shows. I wish I still had my Rabbit diesels. There was a time when Model As were junkyard trash. Time marches on...
I wonder how long the wringer washer was around before the joke came out??
Do not remember a joke but have heard reference as a situational analogy even to this day. Have also heard stories about the dangers and injuries, mostly to the hands. If that is the joke, it is not very funny, especially considering the anatomy referenced. AvE would probably disagree though, so laugh it up if so inclined. 😊
@@BrianEltherington I haven't had this much fun since the old lady got her tit caught in the wringer. That's been around as long as I can remember.
@@CarlJohnson-ry3gc I just commented on that, elsewhere. My brother and I never really thought of that as funny ... you'll see why.
Mr. Pete
Do you know how to make a mouse trap?
The Tucker. What could have been. I got to see one up close including the engine compartment a few years ago. The original owner had one it brand new in a raffle. Had to park it because companies kept cancelling his insurance. He sold it because the was no way to drive it. The Airflow, Tucker, Jeep FC and many others were just to far ahead of their time.
Lyle, would you even venture to guess the value of the museum's contents? $500million? $750million? More?
Like I told the guy who tried to buy my 427 Corvette. -" It's not worth anything because it's not for sale"- He said everything is for sale, but he wouldn't bet me. Too bad 'cause I would have taken his shorts. (It is the car I had my dad buy for me when I was in Vietnam and was waiting for me when I got back to the world. NOT FOR SALE!)

There is a little bit of video in your add
HelloMr Pete! I'm looking for some information on Logan 200 gears. Do you have a website with an email so that I may ask you a few questions?
i love those old cars, they are so beautiful.

old cars are like supper model , really fun to look at! but not to make you wife
