At least 65 years ago when I was just little one, I got to ride in an original 1903 Olds just like this one. I remembered watching the owner add oil to the crank case. I remember how going down the road at 20 or so seemed so fast. Stuck with me to this day. Thanks for the memory reminder.

The very first cars were purchased to transition from horses, so the "mechanical men" that some automotive enthusiasts had on hand were largely stablehands who were adapting their skills to automobiles. Nobody hired a staff and gave them housing to simply maintain a car; they were already there. Horsecarriage maintenance and livery upkeep were not far removed from the horseless carriage.

Let's just pause for a moment to consider what a big deal this was in 1901. Back then, you could have a great time taking your girl out for a ride with a horse-drawn surrey , but this was the Koenigsegg of its time; on a whole different level. Imagine a time when this clanky contraption melted faces (and lifted petticoats). It's mind-blowing. Thanks for sharing this!

My great-grandpa was a pea farmer in rural Idaho. One day, a motorist broke down (overheat, total engine loss) right outside the farm. Great-grandpa got his first car for the cost of supper, room and board, and a wagon ride to the train station for the motorist. He took to motor out of the car, cut holes in the firewall for horse reigns, and hooked up a singletree to the front bumper. Now the family was riding in style. A horse-drawn car, totally enclosed from the weather. Grandma said they felt pretty fancy going to church in their car. Much better than the old farm buckboard wagon.

In 1901 my great grandfather was painting curved dash Olds'. With a brush, not a sprayer. Had to get the consistency of the paint just right plus be an artist with the brush. He later taught one of his dons in law how to do it and Grampa repainted his 1960 F100 that way. It had been used by a prior owner carrying a camper for hunting and the sides were badly scratched up. When he sold it nearly 30 years later, the buyer was really skeptical that it had been painted so long before and with a brush. His trick for getting it smooth was thin it just right with the right thinner and his trick for durability was mixing porch enamel in with automotive enamel. The paint still looked quite good after all those years, in spite of never being garaged.

Well your video shows just what a person had to do just to start a vehicle in those days and what a person had to do to drive a vehicle in those early days. There was quite a bit of oiling and maintenance to be done on a vehicle at the time. I have also viewed the maintenance required on a railroad locomotive, and there is quite the chore oiling up that piece of machinery. Now more than one hundred twenty three years later we can just go out and start our vehicles and the maintenance is not near as involved. One had to really be diligent on vehicle maintenance back then.

With such a car, George Edward Stanhope Molyneux Herbert, 5. Earl of Carnarvon had a accident, in the year 1903, near Bad Schwalbach/Germany, Bad Schwalbach is around 80 km far away from Frankfurt/M. He crashed so bad, that he was injured the rest of his life and so his doctor advised to spent the Winter months in a warm climate. He choose Egypt, became interested in the history and so financed Howard Carter on his archological campaign. They found the grave of Tutanchamun. So if the Lord Carnarvon had not a car accident with such a car, he would never financed the digging of the grave of Tutanchamun!

I had no idea these cars were so much work, all that oiling for a couple of hours, and then yet more stuff to do! Thanks for sharing.

I guess you don’t have to oil them if you don’t want them to last that’s the problem new cars, nobody takes care of

Very well done video Sir. About 10 years ago, I read “Car Crazy;” and if I recall correctly, the round/rolled dash was the first exported car. Truly iconic, but this is the first time I’ve seen one put into operation. One needs your fantastic set up to keep something like this running.

What if you dress up in 1900s clothes and pull in to a dealership mechanic and ask for help

It's funny to see the stages in which automobiles progressed- usually the next boost of development occurred as previous patents expired. Forward twenty five years from this and the driver is still very much in control of the individual aspects of the operation. Forward on another twenty five and the vehicle is unrecognizable in terms of construction and operation. My car, 50 years newer, starts at the push of a button, changes gears by itself, automatically adjusts carburetion and ignition, not to mention all the other mod cons. It really takes skill to understand, operate and care for these machines which is something people take so much for granted now. Thank you for sharing with us!
