1937 Hunt Housecar: Built by a Cinematic Pioneer, Loved by the World

[@jerrywagner4690]

Look at that dream machine straight out of someone's imagination. I can see a little of what he must have been thinking. Thank you for letting us know about this wonderful piece of art, from where art meant something.

[@modelermark172]

Simply incredible. Though built almost a century ago by a person with only a 3rd grade education, this is one of the finest, thought-out custom vehicle designs I have ever seen - and I just now found out about it! Thanks for sharing this with us! 67th Like.

[@number100]

Thank you for this video. I had never heard of this incredible vehicle before.

[@derrickconnolly9164]

I really believe building one of these today would go off the charts.

[@SpaceGringos3D]

They would charge waaaaaaay too much for it.

[@philnewberry8072]

A house-car. Why hasn't this type of thing been available? It makes sense. It SHOULD exist as a travel option.

[@Compliment_Thief]

Hey, it has lil buddy, it’s called a camper van or RV! 😊

[@Lester-z7t]

A travel van.

[@ModernNeandertal]

Beautiful motorhome. Would love to own one with modern engine and safety features.

[@jpgabobo]

This is almost too incredible of a design, I have to go lay down now...

[@Magnetron33]

I've never heard of it! what a brilliant design Form and function having an equal share of importance. Amazing!

[@freeplayfrank7736]

Wow what a cool vehicle, I love it.

[@roberteshaw9520]

Looks cool.

[@bthomasx]

I would love one of these

[@camrenwick]

Great cars. I'd love to have one.

[@rosshoevet5896]

Auto parts company FASPEC in Portland Oregon (long since closed), had one of these for sale for years (decades?) , that they couldn't give away. It was always stored inside. Maybe it could be tracked down if one is interested.

[@T-bone1950]

The dark gray one (1937?) Is the best looking RV I've ever seen. Although nice, the polished metal one (1940?) reminds me too much of an Airstream.

[@davidbarnsley8486]

I bet that motor home museum would be a place to see This one is a beauty

[@timothyokane9710]

What Motorhome Museum is that?

[@truthseeker9454]

[@duanetrivett750]

Love it !

[@Smedleydog1]

How cool would it be to roll up in an RV campground it this beauty?

[@bokhans]

Fantastic vehicle! 🥰

[@TheHebrew]

Wow way cool.

[@rocksteady13]

Pure awsomeness

[@fosbury68]

The idea was better than the reality.

[@josephpadula2283]

Looks like Buckminster Fuller’s Dymaxion car . Oh he just said it …….

[@KuDastardly]

For some reason, it reminds me of the Herkimer Battle Jitney from 1999's Mystery Men.

[@DavidSmith-xs3or]

I'd like to see that design applied to modern full-size mobile homes. That art deco streamline shape would give some variety to today's mobile homes, which are rather boxy and not very stylish. In fact, they're rather bland and they mostly look alike.

[@freedomforever6718]

Everything except windshield wipers!

[@rod4095]

Incredible vehicle

[@Brian-uy2tj]

Wow, this is a very cool design, except for the chamber pot. Trade the chamber pot in on a "composter toilet" which doesn't take up anymore space and doesn't stink like mad.....

[@budgetaudiophilelife-long5461]

WOW,WOW, WOW A TRULY GREAT IDEA 💡🤗💚💚💚

[@ghhtdesfh]

Hunt!

[@anachronistofer]

The style and design again reminds me how beautiful most things were in 1930s and early 40s (Art Deco, Streamline, etc.), and how ugly everything is now---whether vehicles, products, or architecture.

[@kometeer9576]

Those Head Lights Definitely look like 1937 Ford

[@davidavard8461]

As does the grille.

[@danodowd1759]

WAS THAT SHIRLEY TEMPLE IN THE DOOR WAY @ 15/406 I BELIEVE IT IS, NO ONE WAS AS CUTE AS SHE WAS AND THE TIMING WOULD BE CORRECT. MY DAD WAS HER FIRST BOYFRIEND. WHEN THEY MET HE WAS SO POOR HIS FAMILY DIDNT EVEN OWE A TV AND SHE COULDNT BELIEVE HE DIDNT KNOW WHO SHE WAS!

[@nanwilder2853]

Enough with the caps, already! I knew it was a Shirley Temple publicity shot. . . By the way, it’s OWN, not “owe” a TV.

[@RReese08]

Wow. Thanks again, Retro. Unlike many of the unique vehicles you’ve covered, it’s a miracle this thing still exists. A true survivor. 🙂

[@k.b.tidwell]

I can imagine it was almost scrapped for the metal several times, but the owner looked at it and thought, "Noooo...too cool."

[@atleeriksen8514]

thats a fantastic design but Im not sure witch one is the Hunt since you incorporate two different cars in your video without any explanation of why?? One can clearly see major differences in design on these bodies...and also the interior pics is from two different cars.

[@mikeohagan2206]

Why can't they design vehicles that look like that anymore?

[@DIOSpeedDemon]

It is amazing what Americans can accomplish, without RED TAPE...

[@jonh5032]

Absolutely, like Boeing, for example 😂

[@Duke_of_Prunes]

They look a lot like 1930s Airstream trailers with wheels added. But you're going to get a lot of odd aircraft-inspired vehicles and trailers built when you're located in the middle of America's aircraft industry -- Airstream didn't move to Ohio until the 1950s.

[@bcsadman]

Very cool looking vehicle… what engine powered the ‘37 Hunt… a Ford? I’m assuming it had a Manuel transmission… 3 speed, 4 speed?

[@crazyburkey3677]

Could always have bent the shift lever forward

[@Donald_Shaw]

Great video but there's no windshield wipers.

[@dingdongdaddy589]

Looks like a Barry Weiss vehicle.

[@_Briegel]

omg... diese saublöde KI Übersetzung kann man sich echt nicht anhören....

[@johngraves6878]

Sleek and yet frumpy at the same time. What an oddball looking vehicle! Fitting a shower in such a small RV is insane! I doubt it works very well.

[@robertcallahan4065]

Taillights are from a 1937 Chevrolet, am I right?

[@InTime-x3j]

I bet they used an English wheel to form the curves in the metal.

[@carloscarro2296]

Ele quis criar o carro mais feio do mundo e conseguiu

[@chrisregister8021]

This Is My Idea except that the car part detaches from the home part...

[@CHUCKSNORRIS]

a 3rd grder back then is a college degree smarter than a college educated student today. AMERICAN PUBLIC SCHOOL SYSTEM. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@ostseesegler9606]

interessant aber wegen der KI-Stimme bin ich raus

[@Baetzibaer]

Dito!👎👎👎

[@oliverbradford]

This country is such a hypocrisy. We're screwed

[@brianflynn5355]

Another great example of what Americans are capable of doing.

[@hildemoe9355]

!

[@bryanbrowning5746]

I see the side mirrors, but where are the windshield wipers?

[@trevorsanders5303]

Aloominum 🙄🙄

[@van_trippin5260]

They have smaller brains, they have to simplify some words! It's also why they think hunting is a thing to be proud of.

[@horstd.engart9362]

Geliebt von der Welt? Na ich weiß nicht . Ich finde das Ding hässlich .

[@378-V8]

Great car, but not even the inventors Name is pronounced correct - switch of the computerized nonsense narrator. Pics sometimes dont match with the mostly stupid text! D/A/G

[@alvindorris4373]

Said say Bite better than CHEAP NOW

[@JamesBrown-p7i]

Considering that I'm 41 and facing a job loss, I'm reviewing my financial plan. What investments should I make with $425,000 saved for retirement, $10,000 in an HSA, and a property that could generate me an extra $250,000?

[@Mackenzie-565]

VENTURING into the trading world without the help of a profesionals, trading and expecting profit is like turning water into wine you would need a miracle.

[@PatriciaBarbara-p6k]

Consulting a financial advisor is a logical step at this point, but postponing retirement could be a wiser decision

[@JamesBrown-p7i]

My wife is willing to work for another 5 years if needed. Are we in good shape? Will we be okay if I begin withdrawing from Social Security when I'm 41 and my wife is 40? Should we hire a financial planner to help us navigate this?

[@Mackenzie-565]

These are crucial questions for a financial planner. I met mine at a NYSE summit, and with her help, my wife and I reallocated our $1.7M portfolio between a traditional IRA and a brokerage account. She's been making investments with our approval and has helped us recover twice our losses. We're holding steady and carefully navigating more markets

[@JamesBrown-p7i]

Is it time for a career shift or should I consolidate my investments into a single account? If I go for the latter, how do I do it right, and what could be the drawbacks? Plus, with a $200K property sale on the horizon, should I combine my investments or diversify them across different markets?

[@davidjavids2431]

How do you change front tire
