Al Capone's car was a 1928, the one he's "restoring" is a 1927. The real car sold for $341,000 at action. Judging by the garage e this guy doesn't strike me as someone who could afford the real car.
zagan1 no thats y it had the flaps on the window armor her said so it won't touch the upholstery my guess the upholstery was too far gone so they where probaly having them restored
There used to be a car like this at the Imperial Palace Hotel Car museum in Las Vegas. It was putatively Al Capones armored limosine. It was , if I remember, a 1930 V-16 Cadillac. It had many of the features of this car plus an oil line from the crank case which would send a jet of hot oil on to the exhaust manifold to create a smoke screen. Standard equipment included a box of roofing nails to be dumped through a coffee can sized hole in the floor. There were gun ports in the thick armored door glass as I recall. The museum was broken up when the hotel change hands....where it went I can only guess. There were MANY historic cars that were dispersed in this corporate raid
It's a piece of history. He is not glamorizing Capone it's just history. Very cool and I would love to have historic pieces like this. It is very cool.
"Al Capone's Real Armored Car" Then you say "We Believe it is" Some of the hinges don't seem to be era correct nor does the craftsmanship. What I believe you have is a old Chicago police car as they were black and green and your faking the car. Al's car had one inch glass all around and the rear glass slid down for rear shooting. But you don't mention the glass thickness at all, maybe you did not know this Al's items were confiscated and restored and that is not it!!

SH3D Builder it isn't the real car #1 his cadillac had bullet resistant glass and the tires were solid also the car was only armored below the windows I have family that knew him and also know his granddaughter also
Growing up kid back in the 70s, I knew a man that drove for Al. Capone had many cars and drivers moving all the time. To confuse anyone trying to pin his location. The mob kept tabs on Sam to his last day.
If I remember correctly the US Government ended up with Capone's car and actually used it the U.S. President Limo until one was made for the President.
rareblues78daddy Am I mistaken or do I see Phillips head machine screws? Obviously Al dabbled in time travel when he wasn't enjoying himself catching syphilis.
paul williams Ikr some of those hinges look like ones from my local hardware 😂 also I'd question what bullets they were planning on stopping with such thin gauge plates
hes like a kid having fun in a fort made of boxes saying "I can shoot ya here. Or I can shoot ya from over here, or up here," except hes in like a 1927 Cadillac
Yeah and not only that, awkward and slow as this guy moves around, I'd have 4 or 5 rounds in him before he could aim. Roof turret position with no armour, your sitting duck.
Jay Leezy that’s kinda retarded. The bullets that Pac and big were shot with woulda gone thru the thin armor. Plus they wouldn’t just roll around this shit with the windows covered with no visibility. Don’t be dumb. Think before you comment
The genuine Al capone car, was for many years on show in Britain at the Amusement Park and Zoo, in Manchester called BellView , when it closed the car was sold locally and is probably still in the UK.
It may be an armored car, and it may be from the 20's. But was it really Capone's? And how could such a famous vehicle end-up in some suburbanite's garage? I'll paraphrase Carl Sagan: "Extraordinary claims require extraordinary proof".
the real car was confiscated by the treasury dept. what happened after that probably some private collectors got hold of it. must be worth millions today
A .22 wouldn't go through quarter inch steel. 9mm wont 40 cal. Wont .45 wont. 10mm wont but... 7.62 will .308 will and many many more rifle cartridge will absolutely punch through quarter inch steel. I shoot quarter inch steel with handguns i shoot half inch steel with rifles. Ar500 steel is good to, covers most calibers.
My grandmother first husband, is the one and only person who did the bullet proofing on Al Capone's cars. My grandmother would tell us all kinds of stories about him.
Florjan Brudar no it is not, fist off Capone's car is a 1928 Cadillac 341A town sedan, not a 1927 Cadillac. Just cause it's green (lots of cars are) doesn't make it his :)
How Al never got killed was beyond me. He's the only famous gangster that never got gunned down. It amazes me how he survived jail as the mob wanted him dead and could of payed anyone in jail to kill him. Even in jail he was the boss.
Would you want to be the guy to sacrifice your life and family to try to gun him down? Plus, Capone wasn't dumb, he was incredibly strategic in everything he did.
At one time exhibited in carnivals across America and in England as a a Capone car, the Cadillac eventually returned to the United States in the mid-1960s and passed through a number of museums - the Niagara Falls Antique Auto Museum, the Cars of the Greats museum, and the Smoky Mountain Car Museum - before the late John O’Quinn added it to his collection in 2006. Offered at an RM auction at St. John’s with a $300,000 to $400,000 pre-auction estimate, the Cadillac sold for $341,000, including the 10 percent buyer’s premium. NADA’s stated value for a 1928 Cadillac Model 341 four-door town sedan is $41,200. This Video is NOT IT !!!!
Retired LEO here. That armor would stop 9mm and 45acp pistol rounds. The Thompson was chambered for the 45 ACP pistol round. It would not have stopped 30-06 the round fired from the BAR, (Browning Automatic Rifle) . Frank Hammer and team had two BARs when they took down Bonnie and Clyde.
Capone was certainly prepared for many things I wonder really how efficient all that bulletproofing really was as it didn’t look like it was very thick steel perhaps making the car more Bullet resistant than actually proof
Nope. Tyler yeah but you got to Understand there was not a lot of Texhnology as at today The important Thing Was that this Car Was made of Steele And They Had A Strong Engine
@@raulparra2531 this car is fake, it looks like pure ass - none of the "armor" is cut right. You can see the green over-spray clearly in the door sills cause this guy painted this thing recently, others here mentioned this car used to be yellow. Capone's actual armored car had 1 inch thick glass all the way around as well.

I want to know more about Al Capone's Mercedes, Al Capone's bicycle and Al Capone's toy pistol. Seriously, whether this is or is not Al Capone's car, it's kinda cool
Al's was 28' Caddy with bullet proof glass with a drop down back window. That metal plating wouldn't be much protection for long! That's most likely a Caddy from Chicago PD. They had a few of them.
Alex Magana he said it wasn't, he said it hasn't be restored yet that's why it's rusty, but I highly doubt that it was his car and it was put together pretty poorly. I'm It was sent back in the day that the president even borrowed Al's Capone's bulletproof car or one of his bulletproof cars not sure how many he supposedly had. But I really don't think that was his car. Come on look at the workmanship that was done by some crackhead backyard mechanic.
No shit HAHA and and time consuming what a crock of shit as much money he had he sure as hell wouldn't have been waisting money and time on someone bs job like that
Interesting and it may have been one of Capones car's? Some of that "armour plating" looks like new steel sheet. Even restored a sheet of steel nearly 100years old is going to have pitting and in those days I doubt it would be so flat and smooth. Just looks very fresh and too well cut. Also, by the time you folded down the window plates Capone would have been dead. So bullet proof glass and door panels would make more sense than all steel protection. But I may be wrong but someone else claims to have a 1928 Cadillac that belonged to Capone and it has 1inch bullet proof glass, drop down rear window and steel plate armour.
Ages ago 1980 in Costa Mesa, California working at a auto restoration shop I refinished the wood in a 1929 Cunningham limo 16 cylinder in very dark blue said was AL Capone's main car. 1 and three-- quarter inch thick glass, 1 inch thick steel plate in front of the radiator with 20 holes drilled out, a very large trunk with 2 inch leather straps and a 1 inch steel plate behind the trunk, solid rubber tires, and 3 inch square opening doors all around inside for machine guns, there was a wool throw carpet in the back with blood drops. Has anyone heard of this car ? Told it was from a museum in Chicago, Illinois. Stupid of me not to get a picture of gangster history. Oh the underneath looked like a train.
Okay I see two possibilities... The first being that this car, which belonged to the most well-known criminal in history, and somehow managed to make it into this guy’s garage, was coincidentally stripped down by this man to reveal an armor package of thin sheet metal held to the roof by door hinges and modern Phillips screws... Teaching us two things... 1. That Al Capone must’ve been very cheap when constructing his 1927 “Limousine” (Which is interesting considering that his vehicle was actually a Town Car), and 2. The Smithsonian, National Geographic Society, every American History Museum, and every other qualified source in the world, we’re all totally cool with this car landing in this guy’s hands, and they were super cool with him tearing it apart to “restore” it... Or! The other possibility: This guy’s full of shit...
This is not Capone's car!!!! Looks like something a child would fabricate!!! These drop down panels don't even have proper latches etc. The roads were rough then. A person riding in that piece of junk would likely be killed by one of the panels falling down and decapitating him!!!!! What a load!!!!! Not even worth the money in scrap!!!! What a waste of a nice car!!!!!! Troll!!!!!!
Joel Hill exactly what i thoughr when i saw the 2×4s holding up the armor and the fact thar its so terribly made and clearly not thick enough to stop any caliber of bullet
when a cop pulls you over and opens your door and looks inside, you would look suspicious as fuck with metal all over your roof and walls, and very visible gun folds, like wtf
I'm an atheist, and I would first begin believing in Jesus Christ before believing that this car actually belonged to Al Capone! ...heck, if this is true then I must be the Tooth Fairy!

I have a replica model and it’s nothing like this, plus it had bullet proof glass with a hole for the gun barrel

Ummm? I was waiting for him to pull out little latch & say..this is where you put your lunch!?..😂😂
Carl Sagan said “Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence” I do not believe this Was Al's car.. Too many things that are not right..
Keep in mind Al had a fleet of cars as the years went by.
errrr, dont think a 20's car would be held together with alloy pop rivvets.
Alex Magana he said it wasn't, he said it hasn't be restored yet that's why it's rusty, but I highly doubt that it was his car and it was put together pretty poorly. I'm It was sent back in the day that the president even borrowed Al's Capone's bulletproof car or one of his bulletproof cars not sure how many he supposedly had. But I really don't think that was his car. Come on look at the workmanship that was done by some crackhead backyard mechanic.
An armoured car weighing 3 tonnes with a 40hp engine. I can see a flaw in the plan.
4:31 Al Capone's lawn mower
There's .22 cal pellet guns from Walmart thst can go through that 1/8 in sheet metal steel from home depot
Before we have our gun battle please allow me 5 mins to pull down my 1/8" steel "armor" mounted with modern cheap hinges from Home Depot......
No shit HAHA and and time consuming what a crock of shit as much money he had he sure as hell wouldn't have been waisting money and time on someone bs job like that
It wasn’t bullets that would eventually get Al Capone, that was Syphilis.
And why are you crawling all over Al Capone's car?
?
TheDreamCar just kidding you.
Oh.
America lmao
Hahahahahaa!!!! 😂😂😂
Rock* watching this video
: hmm we shall see, small one
That is not his car and that armour is not 90 years old. It's angle cut and looks 30 yrs tops
Interesting and it may have been one of Capones car's? Some of that "armour plating" looks like new steel sheet. Even restored a sheet of steel nearly 100years old is going to have pitting and in those days I doubt it would be so flat and smooth. Just looks very fresh and too well cut. Also, by the time you folded down the window plates Capone would have been dead. So bullet proof glass and door panels would make more sense than all steel protection.
But I may be wrong but someone else claims to have a 1928 Cadillac that belonged to Capone and it has 1inch bullet proof glass, drop down rear window and steel plate armour.
That's my car. I take it when I'm doing drive-bys when ever there's an iPhone release for those camping nerds
He has smart idea of building a caddy into a armor tank
Next time use authentic hardware and armor plating is at least 1/4inch steel. Not sheet metal .otherwise cool 27 caddy
Ages ago 1980 in Costa Mesa, California working at a auto restoration shop I refinished the wood in a 1929 Cunningham limo 16 cylinder in very dark blue said was AL Capone's main car. 1 and three-- quarter inch thick glass, 1 inch thick steel plate in front of the radiator with 20 holes drilled out, a very large trunk with 2 inch leather straps and a 1 inch steel plate behind the trunk, solid rubber tires, and 3 inch square opening doors all around inside for machine guns, there was a wool throw carpet in the back with blood drops. Has anyone heard of this car ? Told it was from a museum in Chicago, Illinois. Stupid of me not to get a picture of gangster history. Oh the underneath looked like a train.
Okay I see two possibilities... The first being that this car, which belonged to the most well-known criminal in history, and somehow managed to make it into this guy’s garage, was coincidentally stripped down by this man to reveal an armor package of thin sheet metal held to the roof by door hinges and modern Phillips screws... Teaching us two things... 1. That Al Capone must’ve been very cheap when constructing his 1927 “Limousine” (Which is interesting considering that his vehicle was actually a Town Car), and 2. The Smithsonian, National Geographic Society, every American History Museum, and every other qualified source in the world, we’re all totally cool with this car landing in this guy’s hands, and they were super cool with him tearing it apart to “restore” it...
Or! The other possibility: This guy’s full of shit...
This is a fake channel! Either he's lying or someone lied to him.
I half expected this guy to end the tour buy making a pot of Irish coffee using an acetylene torch.
This is not Capone's car!!!! Looks like something a child would fabricate!!! These drop down panels don't even have proper latches etc. The roads were rough then. A person riding in that piece of junk would likely be killed by one of the panels falling down and decapitating him!!!!! What a load!!!!! Not even worth the money in scrap!!!! What a waste of a nice car!!!!!! Troll!!!!!!
Joel Hill calm down lol
Sorry, Just really grinds my gears!!!!
Joel Hill The panel part cracked me up 😂
Joel Hill You can certainly get your fat ass to work and buy the real car then!
Joel Hill exactly what i thoughr when i saw the 2×4s holding up the armor and the fact thar its so terribly made and clearly not thick enough to stop any caliber of bullet
You got yourself a hell of a gem on your hands congratulations
when a cop pulls you over and opens your door and looks inside, you would look suspicious as fuck with metal all over your roof and walls, and very visible gun folds, like wtf
Al capone ran from the cops...
Corey Porter oh yeah, true....
Corey Porter Al never had to run from cops as they would not dare pull him over. Rival gangs were the issue.
The real Al Capone limo is in Rooselvelt's Library that he gave to President Roosevelt at President Roosevelts home. In Hyde Park, N.Y..
If anybody actually believes this is really al capones car.....you......you just need Jesus.
Repo Life This made me LMAO
ikr
Repo Life And you need to get a life!
I'm an atheist, and I would first begin believing in Jesus Christ before believing that this car actually belonged to Al Capone! ...heck, if this is true then I must be the Tooth Fairy!
Typically, it's 'Jesus' that's part of the problem in cases like this...
This guy has a rich fantasy life!
Tommy or 50 cal would have turned it into mince meat
