My grandfather worked for General Motors and was involved with these vehicles built for the Parade of Progress in 1939. I am glad to see this incredible restored one, great work.

There were, in fact, TWELVE Futurliners. This, of course, is number 11, the "March of Tools" vehicle, what with the "4 million dollars". Of the other 11, one was destroyed in an accident in 1956, four are unknown, one is in the Dennis Albaugh Collection, three are owned by ChromeCars of Germany, one is in NATMUS, the National Automotive and Truck Museum, and one is in Sweden in private ownership.

2:26 That's called LACING CORD, used before plastic wire ties were invented. It was used on all aircraft. It was waxed cotton then waxed nylon after Nylon was invented. The wax allows it to stay tight after tying it and makes it waterproof. I still have a roll in black color. The roll is about the size of a soda can just not as tall. It came in an undyed natural buff color and also black later on. I use it on fancy car electronics jobs - the kids have never seen it!

it would have been equivalent to teenagers love for the f350s today because they are so high up, similarly teenagers of the 40s being teenagers would have appreciated the size and height of the futurliner.
