People didn’t drive as much then. This was the time before GM destroyed all public transport and before they invented suburbs, malls and cul-de-sacs. A time when walking wasn’t a suspicious activity. Ten thousand miles was something most people didn’t even manage to drive whilst owning the car (5, 10, 15 years).
My neighbor had a 1950 Dodge truck. He and my father and I once loaded it down with wood for burning and rode at a 45 degree angle out of the woods up hill. It was a 3 speed. Three on the tree as they nic named this gear type. It had what was called granny gear because it would creep along at 7 mph. Thus granny gear. It would tear out a transmission today.
My '51 Chevy had an electric welded frame. There were still rivets in some places. I'm not sure when spot welding began on autos. Spot welding was definitely essential to radio tube production, though. Radio tubes had spot welded connections since maybe the 1920s.
@@td3993 maybe at that time spot welding was a viable thing for radios but not for cars? this is my guess, about the production costs, because at the time, even in construction, riveting was a major part of the job
I love these, and learn a LOT from them, but I have to say that I also really appreciate the level of detail from stuff like Animagraphs and Real Engineering. It's more fair to say that they did an amazing job with what they had and what they focused on.

What a coincidence, I have that exact same frame (from a 36 three window coupe) that someone cut in half to make a trailer, that I want to put back together. Now I see that I better keep that middle section.
I've worked on cars for years and I would say that the pinnacle of metallurgy and simple durability was reached in the 70's, after that things got cheapened for weight savings, milage, and cost of manufacturing. My 72 pickup runs like a top, and the doors latch like a vault.
Others have said that the early 90s weren't bad as well, before so much stuff became proprietary, but after a lot of the advantages in fuel economy, air resistance reduction, and weight savings.
Simple, practical, understandable explanation.Grade of steel and corrosion protection is also of great impotance.Any box section is prone to rust on the inside, where its no visible. That's why a dipping process is must.Great video everyone can understand.
It blows my mind that's what's happening right now in pretty amazing colors and moving pictures AND communicating to total strangers we feel comfortable being rude to 🤣.
I wish we had these type of ads, they actually explain stuff, have a good intro, with *good music*, unlike the ones we have now. Modern ads: Shows 30 seconds of family driving, and buy our car.
Absolutely amazing, I wish my modern car would have had a good Fondation. Every part of it rattles and clanks with every bump on the road, it sounds like it's going to fly apart at anytime. One thing for sure they don't build them like back in the olden days.
13 years later and this will be a century old. God, we have changed so much. And I kinda wished parts of this stuck with us. We have complainy assholes with mental issues on Twitter nowadays.
There's often good memories about automobiles. That old film's are haunting. Because a whole lot has changed over many years. People feel, but that old steel doesn't.
@InfiniteMushroom it is wrong to generalize everything to such an extent. fantasy is no more dark or 'mentally disturbed' than any other genre, this judgment needs be made on a case-by-case basis. likewise, gaming isn't any more of an escapism method than other forms of entertainment (besides, whether or not it's used for escapism depends on the users, not the medium itself). the reason why it has, for the most part, not translated well into cinema is because the people making those movies treated their projects with pure cynicism. they did not concern themselves with making good movies. as for anime… there's a lot of schlocky titles, but, once again, in this regard it is no different from western productions. pick a random western movie or TV show, and you'll most likely get something shitty. it is rare that something good actually gets made.
@InfiniteMushroom as annoying as it is to observe the trend for Marvel-style of cinema, it's not likely to last forever. also, as a non-American, let say this: your country still produces great entertainment, with not just the thrills, but also some meaning. it's slightly harder to notice now, behind all the popcorn flicks, but it's there. don't be all doom and gloom.
What an excellent intro to peak the interest of an audience. At first, I thought this this is a Halloween 👻/Hitchcock type of movie. Well done! The engineer/narrator/Professor explained the car’s foundation so brilliantly. I’m ready for the next video! 😆
Call it infotainment. These shorts would have run at the theater before the main movie started. They were basically ads telling you how good a certain product was, education was just a bonus.
There's a video editing/creation program called Doodly that creates animations of things being drawn the same way this was animated. The early days of Hollywood saw some amazing innovation.
@ 3:27 I was checking around a old cabin the other day and seen a frame exactly like this the rear axle and four cylinder engine too the only difference was the rims had wooden spokes you can tell it was sitting for 60 years at least and it was in excellent shape. Now if only I could find someone to purchase it
This is great example how engineering should be taught in school.
This is better than any engineering class I had.
There's welding and automotive engineering now in school's

Roads were very primitive back then. No super highways yet.

"10s of thousands of miles"
Just remember that quote when someone says they don't build em like they used to.
I often say that but then again people junked a car after the odometer rolled over once. But oils weren't as good then and cars weren't kept for long.
Should I tip my Asian car over to see whats holding it up?
They did not have good roads back then.

Can someone type the lyrics of the song at beginning? Fine, I'll do it:
The house is haunted by the echo on your last goodbye,
The house is haunted by the memories that refuse to die,
I can't get away from a vision that brings,
Intimate glimpses of intimate things
A voice in my heart like a torch singer sings
I wonder who's kissing her now
The house is haunted
By the echo of your favorite song
The place is cluttered up
With groaners that have lived too long,
much too long
The ceiling is white
But the shadows are black
A ghost in my heart says
She'll never come back
