A few years ago my wife and I went on vacation to Dearborn Michigan and went to the Henry Ford Museum. I was totally blown away by the size of the locomotive. We also went to Fairlane, the Henry Ford estate, and Greenfield Village. All three of these places need to be visited by anyone who goes to Dearborn for a vacation.

The CP snowplow you saw, is like ones used today. Many different designs for different regions. KZbin has many videos showing various plows in use. They are a sight to see, in actual use. Just stay clear, as snow can fly far, as these plows are sometimes used at higher speeds. The Kennedy limo, looked different, when he was shot. It was in open air mode, like a convertible, rather than it was seen in your video. Notice, as time goes on, more and more safety is incorporated into the Presidential limos. A very neat place to visit. Thanks for the video.

Unexpectedly, they came before the parade & disappeared just as fast! Since then, I have seen this vehicle on display in Las Vegas & also at the Ford Museum! Memories!

My husband and I grew up in Oakland County Michigan. We always knew Greenfield Village and the Henry Ford Museum were special, but never truly realized it until we moved to Atlanta for a new career. One of the most favorite times of year to visit, was during Halloween and Christmas. There is always trick or treating for the children at the many homes in the village. Jack o Lanterns decorate the porches, and it’s a spooky evening. Christmas is even better, Ice skating, vendors selling roasted chestnuts, rides in vintage Fords, and most every home is decorated for Christmas in the style of that particular home. The museum is a wonderful place as well. We try to visit whenever we’re back in Michigan. We made the best decision for us when we moved to Atlanta, but there’s no place like home.

i grew up about 10 minutes from here and I have so many great memories of this place. i used to LOVE being able to see the oscar meyer weiner mobile back before it was placed behind the partitions. there used to be a small display where you could lay inside of a bun and put big padded pieces of ketchup, mustard, and relish on top of you to look like a hotdog. Also, fun fact about the Lincoln chair, most people think that the darker marks on back of the chair are blood but they are actually hair wax. I also went to school about 15 minutes from here and my 2nd grade teacher was almost hit by the Rosa Parks bus when they were loading it in while she worked there before becoming a teacher. I had no idea how culturally significant the Abe Lincoln chair and JFK’s car were until fairly recently. I just had an opportunity to visit again for the first time in a few years and it never fails to fascinate me.

Following Kennedy's assassination, the car received a complete overhaul, with significant armor plating and a bullet-proof hardtop; so the car on display is fake to mislead the public and draw visitors. Kenney's car didn't even have a movable roof; it was a regular convertible (Lincoln 61).

Visited this incredible museum a few years back & was astounded by the exhibits they have on show. To see the Kennedy assassination Lincoln was breathtaking, as was the theatre seat Abe was relaxing in when he was killed. I was thinking ‘how on earth do you source these things?!’. The bus Rosa Parks rode in when she refused to give up her seat to a white person was another stunning exhibit. The unbelievable array of classic cars, & trucks… the neon signs, it’s actually overwhelming how much incredible stuff is on show. After that I went out to see Greenville, which was another mind blowing experience! To buy all those historic buildings, dismantle them, ship them to the museum site & then rebuild them exactly as they were is just extraordinary. It’s without doubt the best, most interesting museum I have ever visited - by a country mile!

The GT40 Mark IV is a GT40. The Mark IV is also known as the "J" car, corresponding to Appendix J for the 1967 24 Hours of Le Mans endurance race rule set. If I'm not mistaken, Appendix J was removed for the 1968 Le Mans race. Thus going back to the Mark II's and also dropping the motor displacement from 6997cc(427cid) to 4942cc(302cid). The 2016 Ford GT is the LMGTE Pro class winning car. The Mark IV is the overall race winner and the 1967 equivalent of modern day Prototype race cars. The 2022 24 Hours of Le Mans saw the last year for 2 classes of Prototype cars and 2 classes of GT cars.

We need history to learn so we won't make the same mistakes and to also cherish the life we have. Many had it much harder than now. The young people don't get it, they want without working for it.

Holy moly that’s quite a collection of older vehicles! My mom remembers John F Kennedy when he was killed. She was at school that day when it happened

I grew up going to this museum and I went again a few years ago. I love going during the spring or summer and spend one day at the museum then the next day at Greenfield village. I want to go to other museums around the US as well. I did travel to Tennessee for the Titanic museum but that's it.

You were there just after the Maker Faire. You really should check out the fair for 2020. There was just so much to see and not enough time in the day to see it all.

Probably JFK's Limo or Lincolns chair. Honestly there are so many amazing things in that place though.

That chair at 10:50 needs to be better preserved. It still shows the stains from the actual blood from President Lincoln's head wound... definitely surreal and a very poignant sight to see and contemplate on, no doubt. Thanks for sharing, Mobile Instinct. < 3

An excellent tour , I'd love to make a thorough tour of it myself . I saw Kennedy's Assassination car in a museum at Niagra, Canada, in 1966.

NO....You did not see Kennedy's Assassination car in a museum in Niagra, Canada in 1966. The vehicle was sent back to Ford Motor Co. after the investigation. The interior was stripped and replaced and a bullet proof roof was added to it. It was returned to the Secret Service and President Johnson and Nixon used it. Afterward....it was returned to Ford and put into storage until it was finally approved for display in the Henry Ford Museum.

I actually touched that car when I went to this museum. There is a sign that says " don't touch the car ". But being the dipshit I was at that age I couldn't resist. Looks like they have changed the enclosure further away from the actual car because I just barely had to lean over to touch it. I just barely touched it with my index finger but still stupid on my part. If you ever have a chance to go to The Henry Ford Museum go. You could spend two days in there easily.

Here's a tip for anyone planning on going here...when buying your tickets at the door, they will ask you where you parked. Tell them that you were dropped off. Otherwise they will charge you $9.00 for parking. Great place to see, but cost $79.00 for 2 of us.
