I've loved all things Chrysler for many years and I admire Walter P very much. He would be heartbroken to see the company he built today
as would all our great grandads!,
As a lifelong student of the history of the automotive industry, and someone who has spent years working at both GM and Chrysler this man is one of my heroes.
What an amazing man that Walter Chrysler. Despite all the adversity in his life he pursued all avenues he could think of. A real automotive industrialist in his time.
Thank you for the memories Walter. May you RIP.
This guy and Iaccoca, some of my heroes
If you have seen my video on Iacocca on my channel, be sure to check it out
Oh thanks, will check it out@@classiccardocumentaries
Amen Brother
I'm always. A. Dodge. Chrysler. Guy !
Now I want HotDogs.
Great video I love the way that you edit these and it would take a really long time. I appreciate the time and effort you put into each one of these episodes.
Appreciate the effort but the incongruent clips of the modern era to coincide with the story line were unnecessary and took away more than they added. Not saying I could do any better, just chiming in with viewer feedback. Sometimes less is more, let the copy then the story.
As a third generation of 4 generations Chrysler vehicles afficionado (my family stepped into Chrysler products in 1952 with the DeSoto "Firedome") I can say your review here is brilliant, absolutely brilliant! Thanks for posting!! (Walter P. would be proud, we currently range from Grand Cherokees and Town & Countries to Avengers and Dakotas to 300s and Challengers.) My favorite Chrysler products were Dad's '78 Power Wagon, Plymouth Super Bird, '58 Fury and Mom's '69 Barracuda Mod Top. Thank you, Mr. Chrysler, for a grand lifetime of car memories...
A story of clear vision, relentless ambition and fearless perseverance.
Thanks for the video. It made clear to me what his efforts, along with his associates, made to this country, let alone the U.S. auto industry.
The Chrysler car was successful because of Zeder, Skelton and Breer. The engineering team included more than a dozen others who had worked together. They took advantage of the many delays to test and refine the original Chrysler car, which was conservative overall but took risks on newer technology like hydraulic brakes and replaceble motor bearings - and was thoroughly tested by 1924. The large 7 bearing motor in later decades would grow to 331, 377 and 413 cubic inches as a commercial truck motor into the '50s.
Only problem was the distributor, so low on the motor. It would pick up moisture and start hard.
Zeder was like a Bob Lutz.
This is pretty interesting stuff man. Well made
That is a story, as a fan /owner of Chrysler's and engineering in big auto world wide 44 years this piece stitches it all together......... thank you
I would imagine what Packard would've been like had Walter P Chrysler bought Packard and make it into a division under the Chrysler Corporation?
His house that he grew up was in Ellis Kansas and I have visited it Very interesting
Great video, thanks for posting it.
I love the beautiful history of Chrysler❤
Excellent work, thank you!!
I have always liked Chrysler cars and have had 3 of them, all diesel-powered. I have always liked diesel-driven cars better than petrol-driven cars, too.
Great story. I have learned and come to respect Chrysler’s engineering prowess from experiencing cars of much newer vintage, primarily the 70’s; I had no idea how deeply it ran. Knew next to nothing about the man or how the company was formed. I learned a lot, thank you.
I always drove Chryslers and Imperials until they shrank in size. The first car I bought was a 61 New Yorker. I went to Chevrolet Caprices and Mercury Grand Marquis. I still have two big Mercurys and a Caprice station wagon. I wish I had that 61.
My grandfather would only drive Chrysler automobiles fully accessorized to the max! In my personal opinion they were the best driving cars ever made.
Interesting/informative/entertaining. Excellent photography job/pictures enabling viewers to better understand what/whom the orator was describing. Very good business opportunist!!!😂
It’s a sad story. This man was a workaholic most of his life. He wasn’t present for his family, which was a great loss for him and for his family.
Very well done.
fantastic video.. Thanks for taking the time to make.. awesome! DMAX
Thank you too!
Your videos are great, keep it up!
Thanks, will do!
Walther Chrysler is right up there with Henry Ford, in my book. His story is astonishing, and he might be a bit smarter than Mr. Ford. The two cars I want to tinker with and daily drive in my old age are an AirFlow and a Model T. Whatever the financials and market forces did, you can't deny that Chrysler could line up an equal number of beautiful and well-engineered cars as Ford and GM, all time list.
The older car I would love to own is my dad's Chrysler Newport '67 with a 426 hemi in seafoam green. Got my drivers license in that car. The other one I would love to own is a Chrysler Imperial.
@sfopaladin2661 why would your dad put a 426 hemi in a 67 newport?
@@hankhill4406 ... That's what came stock in the car when brand new. Duhhh...
@sfopaladin2661 that's very strange. A 67 chrysler newport c body with a hemi from the factory? I've never heard of that. You see, I'm actually a chrysler collector myself. I own a 1968 plymouth roadrunner with a 383 and a 1967 plymouth satellite with a 318. I've owned a couple 60s chrysler corporation cars before that too. You might say I'm very educated on the subject of 1950s to early 1970s chryslers. And I guarantee you that no car in the chrysler division in the 60s got the 426 hemi because they were all c body (full size) luxury cars. The hemi was a preformance engine that was only available in cars from the b body (mid-size) line up of the chrysler DODGE and chrysler PLYMOUTH divisions. Some examples of a b body would be like a 69 charger, 67 gtx, 66 coronet, the list goes on. Both of my previously mentioned cars are b bodies. Long story short, if your dad has a 67 chrysler newport with a 426 hemi in it, that engine is definitely not original to the car.
Well done
This video is top notch in every aspect.
Love it.
What a great story.
Great information
Glad it was helpful!
great video
WOW that's awesome
Excellent work!
Many thanks!
The Chrysler building in Manhattan, Walter Chrysler owned it outright and it wasn't a part of the Chrysler Corporation. His Heirs sold it in the 1950s. John Hartford the head of the A& P supermarket chain died in an elevator in that building.
Loved the chysler imperial luxury at its best it floated on air no road noise room inside unbelievable beautiful
I had several Chryslers and loved all of them
Very good video thank you
So nice of you
Great video, however, I must correct you on one point: Billy Durrant leveraged a stock swap between his company Chevrolet, and share holders of General Motors. At that time, Billy Durrant‘s Chevrolet company was out selling the entire company of General Motors. Basically, Chevrolet bought GM, not the other way around
Great job. Wonderful story.
Glad you enjoyed it!
I didn't know Chrysler was a railroad worker and executive.@@classiccardocumentaries
Great video!!!! 🤜🤛
Thanks for the visit
@@classiccardocumentaries 👍
Flint Michigan resident I love our history ppl forget about all this only the water and crime
Oh the style and elegance of the 60s 70s and 80s. Drive off the lot with such pride,,,, Having it towed back into the competitors lot to trade-in (not so much). I’ve bought a Chrysler ONCE.
After the death of W.P. Chrysler, the company eventually crumbled. A Chrysler New Yorker was such a masterpiece car. Sorry that Chrysler is no longer as good as it once was. FCA is kind of a joke.
Which is now own by Stellantis
Walter Chrysler was like a Lee Iacocca of the 20s and 30s.
Wow
Thank you so much for sharing. So many images in this rubbish you don't even know which are of Walter Chrysler.
Very interesting but too many image collages and before going crazy I stopped well before the halfway point... anyway it's only the airflow that interests me.
318 engine....Say's it All. Great product. Push button gears.,...😊
The chrysler building IS the coolest, most beautiful building in the world. I dont think it can be surpassed.
I am admirer of the Chrysler Corporation. It is sad to see that Chrysler had to join forces with an European automotive Car Company Stellantis.
Sounds like there much more to his beginning story.
Geronimo and crazy pants
This was very interesting but very confusing, where did the Chrysler Brothers fit in here. You meantion them once. 25:42
Thank you for your comment. You should’ve had an option to watch a video on the Dodge Brothers at the very end. Here is a link. Sorry that that didn’t happen for you but it’s a good video.

60 bucks was a lot of money back then!
Throaty Roar?? Right.
I bet he's rolling in his grave about how cars with his name on them are the biggest piles of crap the industry has ever seen today.
From. Canada. I. had. a. 1960 or. 1961. Chrysler. Windsor. 4 door. sedan. 383. motor. with. the. big. Finn’s. Located. on the. back of. the. vehicle. / real. power house. and. beautiful. riding. vehicle. wish. I. still. owned. it. / I owned. this. car. back. in. the. Late. 1960 ‘s. in. Edmonton, Alberta.

Canada
Id like to know what all his 4 kids do/did for a living
One can only assume given Chryslers 14 different bankruptcies, the answer is nothing
ANOTHER TH-cam GEM, NOT READY FOR ""PRIME TIME"",,,,,,CAN IT !!!!!!!!!!!!
Chrysler Corporation would later go bankrupt. Now owned by Stellantis.
Sad but true
what the hell is stellantis?!
@@kirdot2011It’s a conglomeration of Fiat-Chrysler and PSA consisting of 15 different brands. Google it! 😎
@@kirdot2011The ownership group for quite a few car makers
Chrysler has gone bankrupt a few times. And bought/sold to avoid bankruptcies a few times as well
America had ' Inheritance Tax ' & not much of the $50 million would go to the children. Above a certain $$$ amount , 90% TAX.
He is probably rolling in his grave because a foreign car company now owns his beloved Chrysler Corporation. Chrysler motors and transmissions were always good durable cars especially with the 318, 360 motors with the bombproof torque-flight transmissions. Lee Iacocca created the cheap K cars and saved Chrysler but also ruined them as far as reliability and dependability. Everything went downhill from there. Now the Chrysler products are nothing but unreliable expensive junk along with GM and Ford. Foreign cars are more reliable. Who would’ve thought “the big three” would eventually become “the bottom three.” Heartbreaking because I’ve been a Mopar lover my whole life. At least up until 1981. Had three dodge caravans and the most reliable was my first one with a 4 cyl Mitsubishi engine. That’s pretty lame.
Now I am ashamed to say that I drive a 2013 Honda and it has unbelievable reliability.
The K cars were way more dependable and reliable than the cars in the 70s.
redo this without all the unnecessary stock footage.. take it all out. its gas light
Gas light? You didn't even use it correctly
Why do you keep showing images of Hollywood actors? They have nothing to do with the story. It's a wonder you don't use an A. I. Narrator.
Your illustrations are suspect - and the modern edits are ridiculous.
Most ridiculous editing I've ever seen. Really wanted to watch this story too.
What incredible captain America of lies, to the appropriate functionality neurologist
Chrysler cars are garbage and I'm a mechanic. Take for just one example don't you love it when you change the alternator on them and the alternator light doesn't go out😅
