Automobiles of the 40's and 50's

[@tyronejones7341]

The '53 Buick Skylark convertible ! Hands down !!!!!!!!!!!!!.

[@johngammons5471]

I've been driving since 1954 and I've owned several of the cars shown. My favorites were a 56 Ford Crown Vic and a 57 Dodge Custom Royal Lancer. Stylewise, nothing they put out today is even close.

[@lanceconkright4560]

I've been driving for the same number of years and one of my real favorites was my 1956 Ford Sunliner convertible. Light blue and white.

[@ardendorney9991]

Back then you could see a car half mile away and you knew the make and model....today you can’t tell a two-hundred thousand dollar BMW from a thirty or forty-thousand dollar Korean offering..... that’s why I have my classics...memories.

[@dave_riots]

I couldn't tell the cars from back then apart either. It's called, "following a trend".

[@toinimoore3463]

Good for You Arden I was too young when my Dad sold our 1960 Pontiac Bonnie Mother and I were crazy about that car but he wanted a Ford pick up so bye bye to car hello to truck there went my big backseat but not my memories.We made a lot of them with 72 Explorer trunk was a limited edition and I still have it.😉🤩

[@stanbecker2444]

We used to sit on our front lawn on our farm on the swing set as kids and hear cars or trucks come over the hill, speculating on how they sounded as to there make. Right most of time.

[@reemsmith3556]

Awesome, thanks for posting, enjoyed watching it, they’re real treasures. 😊.

Fantastic video.

[@lanceconkright604]

Thank you for your gracious comment.

[@coocoo108]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@corvettesforever3306]

The 1950's Caddys & Fords, especially the Crown Vic, Fairlane 500 and Sunliners including the '49-'52 Mercs were some of the coolest Detroit metal.

[@cindys1819]

This is absolutely one of the Best pix collections of great late 40's and 50's cars. I like the fact that early 50's greats are given their due, like the Hudson Hornet I(we had a 51 four door) and the Buick skylark. The Allard being included was good to see. These are wonderful memories I have as a kid of that era. Thank you for posting.

[@mickspencer4171]

Beautiful collection of cars.

[@mrjuliusjohnson4619]

My 1st car was a 1949 ford club Coupe; 3-on-the-tree. We also had a 1959 Dodge Coronet and a 1937 Chevy 3/4 ton Pickup. Back then, cars were cars AND women were women. I loved it.

[@lanceconkright4560]

My first car was a 1947 Ford and my second was a 1950 Ford Tudor V8 stick

[@03Venture]

You got it right, sir!

Stone cold boring music replay, but great 👍🏻 automotive presentation. Wish I had been 18 at the time. Love it.

Sorry about the music but I have to watch out for copywrites. KZbin watches for those things..

[@ruthbarron9775]

My dad was a car salesman for the Ford Dealership in the mid to late '50's. Then he bought his own car lot--so, we never had a "Family" Car till maybe 1965 when he starting a job at the Post Office.

My first car...series 2 1947 Morris 8/40 soft top. Went everywhere, just not too quickly, but there was no hurry in those days.

[@johnpearson4422]

You

[@joebartolameolli7582]

Oh yeah, there was a hurry. It's just that most of us didn't have the means.

[@pameladotson2503]

These cars bring back lots of memories being a kid and your relatives driving alot of these cars in the photos.Did not see any with the round knobs on the stearing wheel.

[@leonbridges1802]

The steering knob was an after - market add on , they were not installed at the factory . Watch some of the low riders videos that have a lot of Packards and you will see steering knobs on many of the autos crusin or on display. 🖤👽

[@iansnyder274]

Works of functional art...gorgeous.....it was certainly another day.......

[@warrenwilson4818]

The three-tone Packard convertible is totally awesom. When I was a kid I remember the side running lights.

[@ruthbarron9775]

I remember every car had "white-wall" tires...they were the rage back then.the '60's too !

[@joebartolameolli7582]

Not every one.

[@davidcarroll1883]

I'm liking this vid because the music stops now and then! And, I know all these cars very well.

[@stacase]

Awe, no VW? My parents had a 1951/2 VW with a split rear window and wig wag turn signals. VW drivers used to beep at each other on the road. Oh! My first car? A 1956 Ford 4 door sedan and #2 was a 1956 Ford 4 door hard top. Yes, Virginia they did make a few of those. The baby blue '57 Thunderbird was the best of the lot.

[@redbed1604]

I think that the 55' and 56' Ford Crown Victorias were the best looking cars that Ford ever made.

[@lostsoul3154]

ALL unsafe at any speed but they sure were pleasing to the eye.

[@MitchellMaichak-ze7mr]

CARS don't kill people ; PEOPLE kill PEOPLE !!!

[@christinrkm]

I grew up around these cars.

[@mikewiebers8814]

Elvis Presley So did I. Our family owned a ‘52 Plymouth and a ‘56 Ford back then. Those were peaceful days. Would love to have the Ford back, but I was t-boned and the car was totaled 😿!

I thought you were crazy for leaving out a the '55 chevy but when you left out the '57 I KNEW you were nuts.

[@coocoo108]

Sorry Graham, I just didn't have any pictures of those cars at the time I made this. I had a '56 Chevy convertible myself.

Ever tried stopping a two ton Cadillac with drum brakes, doing eighty miles an hour? A bit of brake fade and Crash!.

[@crustycurmudgeon2182]

At ~4:11 1956 Ford Crown Victoria-- If I had gone into a Ford lot looking for a new car, I I definitely would have derisively asked the salesman "What is this Halloween atrocity being offered for? Black and Orange? Really?" I'm sorry, but that's freaking hideous.

[@ianhall3822]

The safety features on those cars were non-existent. Did they have brakes?

[@coocoo108]

No ian, we'd open the door and drag our feet to stop.

[@DutchPlanDerLinde]

[@gwendolynbrown8248]

Classic rich man's cars now, 2 hundred thousand Or more ! no more poor man's. new cars cheaper than old ones, how did That happen?.

[@stanbecker2444]

It’s call appreciation and supply and demand.

[@colby9594]

Now the auto industry is dominated by SUV's and trucks, because people think they will be safer in a wreck and don't have to pay attention because they are bigger vehicles.

Be nice if there was away for a car company to make this cars agian and trucks but if customer wanted models with todays car features be cool are dream cars not sold to pubic just dream cars and planes and boats and motor cycles

[@coocoo108]

Oh I'm so terribly sorry. How could I have made such a blatant error. Could it be that the site I got the picture from and copied and pasted the name called it "Alpha"? I'll try not to be such a "bobblehead" next time and proof read everything so that you don't get upset. You could have just commented that it was Alfa instead of Alpha without calling me names but hey I'm not going to judge you. THANKS!
