Driving Dad’s Car ! 1936 Cord 810 Phaeton in Black & Ride on My Car Story with Lou Costabile

If you enjoy the videos and would like to Sponsor me on Patreon, my Creator link is www.patreon.com/MyCarStoryWit...
On "My Car Story" we're in the Western Suburbs of IL on 7-22-23.
We're looking at a 1936 Cord 810 Phaeton in Black Paint. The car comes with the 289 CI Lycoming V8 Engine producing 125 HP, and this car has a semi-automatic four speed transmission (Three plus overdrive).
The car's Owner is Ted Peshia. Ted’s Father Terry bought this car. Terry’s been on my videos before. Sadly he passed away. Today his Son Ted takes me for a ride in this car and he shares details of this car, and we remember his Dad too. As we take a ride in the country, I’m glad you’re along for the ride.
ENJOY!

Nice segment Lou. The car is a real beauty. Great backstory about Ted and his Dad. Nice to see that the car is in the right hands to keep the legacy going strong.

Hi Kevin, Happy to read "Nice segment Lou. The car is a real beauty" :-) I agree, the car is with the right Caretaker, Lou

[@scuffmacgillicutty7509]

I had no idea these cars were a front wheel drive. I must agree with Ted. The most beautiful car in the world. Cheers guys.

Hi Scuff, "The most beautiful car in the world." High praise :-) Cheers, Lou

[@billmagorian490]

I love these 36 Cords . They are beautiful and did introduce so many breakthrough innovations. The son did an excellent job of telling the car's story. I especially liked that an explanation and demonstration of shifting gears was covered.

[@loucostabile]

Hi Bill, Happy to read you "I love these 36 Cords" :-) Lou

[@czechmate6916]

Thank you Lou for sharing this story with us. I learned more about these Cords in this video than I ever did. I didn’t know they were front wheel drive and I never knew how you shifted gears in them until now. I learned a lot about them in this video. These have always been the most beautiful cars ever built in my opinion and so far advanced technology for the time period. Have a great day Lou. 👍👍

This 1936 Cord 810 Phaeton in black is simply beautiful! Apart from its elegant and attractive lines, it has very interesting details such as those retractable headlights operated by an internal crank, or the recessed lights in the trunk. A quite comfortable interior with that spectacular instrument panel similar to that of a fighter plane, and without forgetting that curious transmission activated with just one finger. I agree with Ted's philosophy that people have their own opinion of what the most beautiful car in the world is. But, for him, the most beautiful car is the one that was right in front of you! What's more, if it weren't for the fact that the Lamborghini Countach is the most beautiful car, for me, this Cord Phaeton could be among the first to consider. Finally, I loved the walk at the end with those rural landscapes as a backdrop, and even with grazing cows included! He he. This video is a nice tribute to Ted's late father! Best regards, Lou!

[@loucostabile]

Hi Jaime, Happy to read "This 1936 Cord 810 Phaeton in black is simply beautiful! " :-) You're right, everyone has a "most beautiful car", and fun to share Ted passion for this car. Glad to take a ride with you in the country, Lou

Hi Tall Dude, Happy to read "this one is tops my list." :-) Lou

[@gormanwpjr]

Another first on the 1936 Cord 810, was that it was the first car to have GREEN instrument panel lighting - something that the original owners loved and could not wait until night time, so that they could turn the lights on to see the beautiful green glow.

[@loucostabile]

Hi Donald the truth seeker, Happy to share this car with you :-) You're welcome, Lou

[@TripReviews]

First time a came across a Cord I was a kid. I think it could have been a Matchbox toy car, perhaps a Dinky car or maybe a model? I forget. But as soon as I showed my father who was born in 1920 it stirred up a childhood memory for him. An uncle had come to visit from wherever he lived in the States and he had driven his Cord up to Ontario. Probably the first one and maybe the only one my father had ever seen. This car was far advanced for its years in production and I imagine very expensive. Cheers🍻

[@MAGronemeyer]

Wow! That has to be the first running Cord I have seen so far. What an interesting piece of engineering that car is. This was the first front wheel drive production car before WW II. It wouldn't be until 1966 when Oldsmobile introduced the Toronado with front wheel drive. The cord was a car ahead of its time with the hide-away headlights, and a radio. The instrument cluster looks awesome with the turned metal backing. The engine sounded healthy as well. The 1936 Cord was a sight to behold!

Maybe the first US built FWD car, but the Citroën Traction Avant beat it by 2 years.

[@TheDejael]

Wow! Love this car! Designed by Gordon Beuhrig in 1935, this was the most advanced car on the road in the 1930s. Absolutely beautiful styling and design inspired by the Art Deco Streamline Moderne school of design. Inspired GM stylists Bill Mitchell and David North in the mid-1960s Buick Riviera and Oldsmobile Toronado. Great car!

[@loucostabile]

Hi Dejael, Happy to read "Wow! Love this car!" :-) Lou

[@godsowndrunk1118]

I built Monogram's model of this car as a kid back in the 70's. And 50 years later, I had the opportunity to turn wrenches on the supercharged version of the Lycoming V-8 from the real thing. I was helping out friend and antique engine guru Dave Tatum when his health didn't allow him to do the heavy work at his shop any longer The Lycoming V-8 was 288 cubic inches, if I recall correctly, and had many innovations including a roller camshaft. Thanks for showing me one of my early dream cars from my youth.

Oh Look! I was first again!! Lou I’m central time zone too! ❤ I’m first often! A Cord is always a treat imagine in the Auburn Cord Duesenberg family of cats Cord was th❤e lesser expensive! Mr Cord was a genius! Semi automatic transmission was used later in the 48 Tuckers! You change the gear then when you wanna shift step on the clutch! Not at the same time!

Gorgeous car, Lou👍 The Cord 810 has long been a favorite of mine, thanks to the 1966 Olds Toronado that eight year old me fell in love with. Two of the greatest American car designs in my opinion. I also happened to have hands-on experience ...building plastic model kits of both. That's about as close as I ever got to those classics. Thanks Lou, and thanks Ted!

Lou, Fantastic video and fantastic car. As a kid, I had a set of trading cards on antique cars. These were similar to baseball cards with a picture on the front side and stats on the back side. One of those was a Cord. my dad was big on the Cord. Prior to this video back in the seventies, I saw a movie, The Reincarnation of Peter Proud, that featured a cord, probably a different model. These cars were quite the car. A trip to the Auburn, Cord, Duesenburg Museum is on my bucket list. I have driven past Auburn, Indiana, so many times traveling between Indianapolis and Toledo it is surprising that I haven't been to the museum yet. That gear shifting is very interesting. Beautiful car loved the video. I wish you had pointed out each of the instruments and controls. I will have to watch again and pause several times to figure it all out. Thanks again for a great video.

The engine is a 288.6 (289) CID unit. It was rated at 125 HP in advertising, but it actually put out 117 HP according to factory tests. This was a decent number for the time. For comparison, the new for 1936 Cadillac Series 60 was also rated at 125 horsepower. This is a beautiful car that had many innovations for its time.

So slick. I knew the car was innovative, but thought it was mostly because of the fwd. I had no idea that it was first production car for the lights, front and back, and the top apthough I was aware of how different it was for those things when compares to other cars of it's time

Hi danam0228, Happy to read you learned something from the video. I'm learning all the time from the Caretakers and I find that to be so much fun, Lou

[@davidgrisez]

The 1936 Cord was a very beautiful car. The interior was beautiful with its very unique dashboard and instruments. However from videos I watched the I heard that this car was intended to be a baby Duesenberg. It is too bad that Cord was close to going out of business when they made this unique car. There are two other videos of the 1936 Cord on KZbin. One of the videos was by Tom Laferriere, where he explains and demonstrates the Cord's preselector transmission. The other video was from Jay Leno's garage where Jay Leno gives a detailed explanation about the 1936 Cord.

I've learned things I didn't know about the Cord from this video. Knew it was fwd but didn't know about the transmission location. Didn't know it was 200 cubic inch. Knew about the headlight door crank, but didn't know there were two cranks. So you can crank one open and make it padiddle. 😊 Didn't know about the antenna. Is the water pump about to go? Sounds like a belt driven accessory losing a bearing.

[@onemoremisfit]

No brake lights? Can't have everything ... Cars in the late 1920s were just beginning to have brake lights. Some still didn't, and the ones that did might have them operated by a separate button the driver pressed and not actuated by the brakes themselves. My quick search for brake lights on the 1936 Cord 810 came up with no hits at all. So it's hard to know if that car was supposed to have brake lights actuated by depressing the pedal, although with the many advanced features for its time in 1936 I would guess that it did have brake lights of some sort. Also, a search on the 1936 Cord will come up with hits from NAPA and Rock Auto, which is good for a chuckle.

i have been a professional Transmission rebuilder and shop owner for the last 45 years, i just retired. in my life i have built a lot of old transmissions but never had the opportunity to build a cord. a nice ride for sure. also, the Oldsmobile tornado was a FWD, the transmission was a 425 thm and basically a turbo 400 in a FWD case, i have built many of them the old 1960s Renault had a transmission that worked the same way with a vacuum electric powered servo that shifted for you,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
