I am glad you addressed that amazing paint early in the video. When ordinary automobiles were blue, black, dark green or brown, the colors available to the coach builders were actually pretty impressive and gorgeous.
Great video Cameron, l enjoy the review of your cars with Jay Leno as well. What an amazing motor car, hopefully when I’m next in the States I get to visit and see many more of your classic car collections.
Cameron, very nice and keep doing cars one after the next. Sidenote: Do some study on trico vacuum windshield wipers and then take a car in the rain up a hill - their salespeople must have been the slick of slick matched to cost as their product certainly was not (about the last thing having them I believe were Jeep CJ’s)
Great video Cameron. Really glad to see that you are doing these and look forward to many more of them. Please put the Mercedes-Benz 540K on your short list!
I was fortunate enough to have seen the sister car of this one at the Tampa Bay Automotive Museum. An innovative design with beautiful lines and a paint scheme that is so distinctive that almost 10 years after seeing that one I knew immediately what you were sharing.
Cameron, if possible could you fire them up, and give us a ride. In the museum they're just inanimate objects, but we know your father trust you behind the wheel, so far.
Great job. I love the collection, and I love your new channel so those of us that are far from California can see and admire your collection. Please continue this channel.
Cameron, thank you for the back story on the Ruxton, you mentioned the L-29 Cord as being the first fount wheel drive car, by the way in my opinion the L-29 Cord is one of my top five favorite cars in the Nethercutt Collection, simply STUNNING! Please keep doing this posting and showing an automobile from the with the back history. Well done! Thank you. As a side note: Lori is an amassing asset to the Nethercutt, she is so knowledgeable and a great tour guide!
This is an amazing collection; you need to see in person. I am lucky to live in Souther California and have been to the Nethercutt Collection frequently.
Ruxton's are so beautiful. I personally always wondered if the logo was a Piasa based on the Native American murals that used to be on the cliffs north of St. Louis, I'm probably off base though. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piasa Thank you for the video, very awesome stuff.
If you are ever in the Los Angeles area, this is a must see! Bring a roll of duct Tape, for keeping your jaw from hitting the floor, when you see this amassing collection of art!
As beautiful as the automobile is, I'm not a fan of the paint job. This alone had to be the major reason for the demise of Ruxton. Glad it's perserved to it's past glory. Thank you Cameron! Please keep these videos coming.😊
so did the guy that played,brought,resorted all of the music instruments and also did the tours retire? i though he said the last own of the 20,000 made a hot rod out of it and last allot of the parts.but with the help of the original builder it got restored.the new tour guides didnt know the part about the hot rod story,did i just made that up? i know this isnt about this cool car but i was just thinking about that story, thank again for doing theses
Cameron, I enjoy your videos with Jay Leno & here--I'm subscribed to both sites. I've driven modern front wheel drive cars & they would always fishtail on me because they were front engine so all the weight was up front. My father also worked for GM for his career & he said that front wheel drive cars were much more expensive to repair when there was a collision compared to rear wheel drive cars. Hence, a question: what is the advantage of a front wheel drive car?
Great work Camron. Wasn't Ruxton like the Playboy son, of some famous Big Tent, Radio Preacher? He would convince people to buy into, Oh, some steamliner to India,, or a New Oil burning train engine, then never invest in it himself, or sell off what shares he did have in it. Before it went Tits Up. Still 200+ HP in 1930 wasn't half bad. Also the World didn't stop in 1929, it took a few years to grind to a Woah. Hitler got it moving again, and Roosevelt followed a long, while cursing him for being ahead of him, in every way.
I would suggest you do a bit of research on the economic theories of John Maynard Keynes. He was British, and his economic ideas heavily influence the Roosevelt Administration's 'New Deal' policies. Adolph, who came to power in the same time period also employed Keynesian economic theories, but I take issue with your assumption that he was some sort of economic 'whiz kid' whom Roosevelt 'followed'. Is there evidence to support your assumption?

I love it
👍 See the late lamented Automobile Quarterly, Vol 8, No. 2. Well done, Cam.
Absolutely Gorgeous Thanks to the founder for preserving such classic's

Heel prints in the headliner? That's hysterical! Gorgeous car!
I find myself wondering about the Bright Work. Is any or all of it plated? What is polished Stainless. Absolutely beautiful.
Thank you for sharing the Ruxton. My mind boggles at how long it must have taken to paint it.
More of these please
Such a stunning colorway.
watched you many times on jay leno , good to see you with you own show stunning automobile and history
Hope you keep doing this like Jay Leno does GREAT JOB !!!!
Nice job, Cameron! Looking forward to more!
This car is absolutely beautiful. Would be awesome to see your collection.
This is an amazing collection; you need to see in person. I am lucky to live in Souther California and have been to the Nethercutt Collection frequently.
Interesting that it is front wheel drive and has the same kind of hockey stick gear change of a Citroen. Cheers for the vid very much appreciated.

I have too heard of a Ruxton! Check it out in Tad Burness auto album!

1930 was not the height of the Great Depression...small detail...just sayin'
