That's just cool as hell. Your dad is looking down laughing and proud.

[@fidelcatsro6948]

it could use a few units of cpu cooler fans to improve heat management

[@jfk64kennedy95]

Dude, when you said "my father WOULD have loved this" I had to go back and discovered his passing in February. My condolences

[@dunzjos9754]

So did I, Dale was my favourit on Discovery Channel. R.I.P Dale

[@darkharleydavisdongang418]

Rest in peace for your dad bro ! you continue his dream and that passion is magnificent 🖤⚡

[@andrewvitale7128]

Every time you or your pop spoke I would listen , because the enthusiasm and love of these vehicles is contagious..

[@chrismarshall5014]

That mini car is amazing! Can’t believe it’s over 100 years old and still mostly original. This place has great pieces of history. I’d like to visit someday.

[@roadlizardcu8664]

When you said "My Dad would have loved this" it brought a tear to my eye. Think he would have not only loved it, but, rode the heck out of it with pure joy on his face.

[@whocares2227]

Brought a tear to my eye too, I was not aware that Dale had passed, I just wondered because I hadn't seed him for a long time. What a great loss........................

[@jimmypopp2695]

OMG he was so vibrant and young ...really. My. heart goes out to you.

[@georgeflutey838]

Hey Matt, what a cool little car! Didn,t know Dale had passed. Got bit of a shock. Good to know the place is in good hands, take care. RIP Dale

[@craigpennington1251]

That car is just so cool. Yes, this is just plain awesome guys. Thank you for making it run once more.

[@sethtoe]

Your smile says it all. I drive these things in my dreams...

[@yankeeryder7430]

The HISTORY there is simply PRICELESS.....!!!!

[@HooptiesNHalftons]

I had no idea that your old man had passed till you said he'd love this!! I'm so sorry for your loss.. I am glad that he instilled this way of life in you to carry on this legacy he has created!! Truly amazing how you dig up the history and care about these old machines!! Keep up the great work and I know your dad couldn't be more proud

[@feellucky271]

Great machine Matt,Dad would love it. Right up there with the '20 plane man. The 4×4 A/C is cool too. What great craftsmanship they did back in the day. The museum is really taking on a life of it's own and I'd love to see it one day. Peace

[@danstewart8218]

Hey Matt, I'm sure your Dad is enjoying the Baby car! He's watching and smiling and is so proud of you! Love and best wishes to you and all the 'family' that keep everything rolling, from over here across the pond in the UK. 👍❤️

[@randallgriswold1704]

Matt truly loves what he does

[@t.t.kelsey7132]

Thank God. , y'all never fail to pleez.....i learn soo much from your channel....yeah..at 61...Learng is fun...thanks Matt for being there for us old farts..👍🤗😎

[@PineyRider]

I was gonna say that's an incredible machine , but the "incredible quota" has been used up for this video! Matt is definitely passionate about what he does. I wish more people had that quality in everything they do. We would be unstoppable!

[@stupitdog9686]

got to drink two fingers everytime you hear incredible - drunk already - an I have only watched 5 mins !!

[@carlderfler5006]

The breaks work great! Thank goodness!! You got that right!!! Keep in mind we are all down to one wrenching mad scientist motorcycle (babycar) Walksler and damn it we cannot lose you man!!!! Your dad is loving it and you!!! It may be in a metaphysical way but Dale is enjoying everything that you are accomplishing!!!

[@clarkbabin9799]

My neighbor used to build cars for the local Shriners. Much of what you see in your car is what he did. Engines usually taken from wrecked bikes.

[@denmann364]

Looks like one to me

[@steveshoemaker6347]

WOW...Who knew awesome little car.....Thanks so much....!

[@codysp]

Incredibly incredible.

[@BattlecatRed]

Cool little car!

[@brushcountry6361]

Even better after visiting the museum. Thanks Matt

[@charlesshreeve319]

What a cool little car! And a century old!

[@KS-id2ld]

Cool lil car, reminds me of the historical vehicle races at Monterrey raceway. They used to make all kinds of small displacement cars back around the turn of the century. It always warms my heart to see them alive again cuz as my dad would say (cars/bikes) no matter how old, were built to be run.

[@richardthomas1566]

This guy has filled his dads shoes and then some his dad should be proud . His enthusiasm for the museum and old bikes is there.

[@MerwinARTist]

This was very nice .. great editing too .. close shots of the engine running .. underneath .. all great!! Thanks for sharing it with us!!

[@Popsaircraftdetail]

Awesome little car brother

[@mm93mustwin13]

Thanks for sharing

[@kingsoutdoors4379]

I can't tell you how much I would have loved to have worked on all those projects . Before Im gone I will shake your Hand and smell the inside of that building 👍

[@kennethwise7108]

Every kids dream car

[@zedhead2864]

AMAZING! What a find, Matt. You are right. Your Dad would have loved this!

[@jimcampbell3511]

Incredible, incredible, incredible! Learn a new word.

[@geoffreyjones2000]

Big time smile, sir... thank you very much

[@chevelleranch7481]

What a great piece of engineering! Thanks for preserving another piece of history!

[@gryfandjane]

What an absolute gem!

[@kennethhlavik8155]

Best, cool car! Coolest Car I've ever seen!!!👍👍👍

[@huntergillespie9836]

I've been waiting to see this one run. Awesome machine. Thanks for sharing such amazing history..

[@t.s.racing]

Been waiting patiently Matt, thank you, perfect timing. Dale's smiling brother, make no mistake. 🙏🙏🙏 Acetone / ATF has always been my go-to for the impossible relic rusties. I had a engine not long ago that required a special puller configuration to get the cylinder off. Turn the puller bolt a 1/16 of a turn each morning for 2 weeks, a fresh dose of my rust release, and 1 morning she just gave up the ghost.

[@feellucky271]

Sorry to hear that but you tried. The patience is what's important and that you seem to have.

[@crazyelf3839]

The smile on your face explains it all!😅😅😅😅😅😅😅

[@mr1pearl]

I bet everything of the plate and all attention on this bad boy ! First night an all-nighter ? This one bad to the bone ! 👍

[@genestatler2514]

WOW!!! What a cool machine!! I love it. Thanks for the ride!!

[@Srennoc]

True love for a machine. The Passion to build that is incredible .

[@huntingtonbeachsasquatch]

I wish I had something like your kingdom for my 14 year old son to have a fun place to play with all these fun toys and one day hand over the rains to him to keep my spirit alive. ....Dad is always with you as he was when you where a kid and he's diggin' every moment!

[@coinucopia]

You don’t just drive it, you wear it!

[@patricknesbit2334]

As to the question posed on the still pic at the beginning, for sure I would love a ride . I am a big fan of classic vehicles especially unique beauties like this pristine baby! Love it.

[@dkcarroll13]

Looks like an absolute blast to drive.

[@freebird7284]

great! reminds me of a shriners car back when the parades came to our town, those were some crazy guys having fun entertaining kids and adults alike, thanks!

[@johnnysechrist6313]

Great addition to the collection.

[@johnniedelong9322]

This to me this has to be one of the quietest motors I have heard on WTTM. That car is wicked, wish I could have bombed that beauty down a dirt road back in 25. Thanks

[@jorgefernandez-mv8hu]

That is such a cool little car!

[@RuciPrasiddha]

I dreamed to own like this one day.. thanks for making this video.. great job!

[@asdfghjkl48929]

Remarkable details! Cycle cars of that time were mostly quite primitive and odd-looking, as far as I know, especially in Europe, but this is a true piece of art. Wow! Add the great story of how you woke up the engine - well, I'm stoked.

[@simonbertioli4696]

Cute...love it...just what one needs to go shopping 😉👍😅😅

[@stratocaster1greg]

Matt I spoke to your Dad on the phone once, I followed his advice. Hope to meet you someday. This little car is so cool. Greg.

[@pojoe511]

What a priceless piece of American history!!! AMAZING!!!!

[@dadsrustorations5103]

Wow what a awesome car! Thanks

[@richardspeciale2850]

You said dad would love it. I assure you he was with you. You are doing a great job keeping his legacy. See you next week.

[@Georgiajason]

Absolutely remarkable. Hoping to make the trip out to see the museum from Utah, in august.

[@stevenoberg4277]

Great car. Love how it sounds.

[@geoben1810]

So what you're saying is that whoever built this had to have had not only just a shop, they would've had to have had a foundry to be able to cast the engine and trans cradle and other parts of the chassis. Absolutely amazing dedication and craftsmanship in producing this little road machine. Unbelievable! Think how it would run if you could cushion the engine mounts.!!! 🤤

[@kennethreiver985]

Very Cool . Looks like an early Chrysler winged radiator mascot .

[@thermalreboot]

I was at the museum when Matt brought that in. Word among the staff was that he was chomping at the bit to get started on it.

[@williamwirick886]

I've been binge watching your videos all week. Can't wait to get over there and check out the museum! Yall make some great bike videos.

[@jamesbrown3358]

Sweet new addition!!

[@engleharddinglefester4285]

I like to see people enjoying their toys, even if the toys are cooler than mine.

[@d30gaijin]

Fabulous!!! Thank you for saving an incredible piece of history!

[@crawlercrew874]

Coolest mini car I've EVER seen! Live it! Thank you guys for preserving such great history!

[@thejackofalltravels8267]

The Museum that runs ❤️

[@elosogonzalez8739]

LOVE IT! I know your dad would have loved it. Save these forever!

[@daviddudley1655]

Love your new car

[@scottmartin356]

Total contact high from your enthusiasm, and what a unique beautiful gem! Really appreciated the detailed breakdown of the different parts, and the process of getting it running- Thank you!

[@seeburg]

Fantastic, I know what my next project is, I am gonna build one of these.

[@pookysdad4884]

But you'll never find THAT combination of parts now! It was a product of it's time. But you can still make something really cool, just with newer parts.

[@stevemayo1175]

Tighten up the loose Horn and it might go Toot Toot again :) Just Awesome thanks' for sharing

[@steve6729]

Can you imagine that thing bombing down the street in 25? The driver must have had to fight off the Flappers with a stick. I hope to visit your museum soon. I need a road trip!

[@p3512at]

The castings are unique but not uncommon. There was a gentleman here in Traverse City, Michigan that made all of his own wood patterns and then took them down to the local foundry and had them cast. He then machined them and assembled his own machines: Metal Lathe, band saw, table saw and joiner. After he passed the tools were donated to the Antique Steam Club at Buckley, Mi where they are on display in the woodworking pavilion.

[@davelollback6555]

Wow really I was wondering how they did those thanks man

[@nickmassey9104]

Brilliant .awesome. love the car

[@growingwiththebeard753]

Reminds me of the cars in great America you got to drive around the park 😎🤙

[@paulmarkel6233]

Absolutely cool! Thank you for sharing this awesome experience.

[@montyhutchens4088]

That is the Coolest little car, hey for its 100th year I think it needs a road trip on the Parkway 👍👍😀

[@shawnsingleton3034]

There was a true legend ! Rest In Peace .

[@JesusGarcia-ch9gl]

I know why I like this kind of cars and it's a mini car but I know I like it everywhere

[@artesper7898]

I just love it. I never new they excessive. So cool

[@napoliansolo7865]

At the beginning of the video when you said it was a Chrysler, I immediately wondered if the frame rails were wood. I remember learning some place that Chrysler used wood rails for a long time. The coolness factor on that little car is a +10. What you need to answer the questions about the mount plates is an old gear head, those guys knew everything. I had a gear head who told me that they used to bolt model T transmissions back to back for more gearing. (At least I think it was T transmissions. Been so long I'm not sure, but I thought it was pretty cool.) That's what Hot Rodding was all about, go to the wrecking yard and scrounge around and see what fits. I'm in Oregon, but I could see taking a trip there just to see the car. Thanks for sharing, your channel is awesome! When are you going to do a show about that North Africa bike? Later.

[@feellucky271]

You ARE the neutral safety switch. Incredible men.Incredible times.

[@djmysticalone321]

Super cool

[@shaggy2scooby4you]

that is just to cool looks like a great fun ride

[@BigRooster616]

Dale would have loved that little Hotrod 🙏❤️😎

[@JesusTorres-qr1gz]

Outstanding and impressive work of art, to you and everyone that one way or another made it possible to share it with us my most expressive thanks for the documentary, enjoy that toy, ma God bless you guys, from paradise Puerto Rico Jesús Torres.

I know you are “Your own Man” and not your “Dad”.. but… thank you for continuing his work and everything you had done over the years to make your Dad’s vision a reality. I am sure that if you ever decide to do something else, it will be great. But again, Thank You.. We loved the museum when we visited and everyone was wonderful. So… Condolences AND Continued success young Sir.
