Some car buffs claim that Chrysler concentrated too much on engineering and not enough on styling, but the Cars they built from about 1955 until about 1975 were sharp looking cars.
Robbi496 The Exner "forward look" cars were knockouts, and sold really well, but they forgot about building them well. The damage they did took decades to repair, if ever. Chrysler & quality used to be synonymous in the prewar era, certainly hasn't been the case in many a moon.
Notice at the end of the film now called a video, the highway with the cars on the concrete that seems more white but there’s black streaks and those streaks are from oil leaks because back in those days almost everything dripped oil somewhere. It still happens today but not like it did before.
That's oil mist drip from the breather tubes. PCVs mandated in California in 1962 were the largest eliminator of smog producing emissions ever undertaken. Everything else that came later cut emissions by lesser, but still important, degrees. The next biggest drop in emissions came with catalytic converters, and the next was elimination of carburetors. The final elimination is now here with EVs. My next car will be electric. Time to make Big Oil into Little Oil.
@@desertbob6835 I was wondering if you still think your car should be an EV and perhaps it has turned out that way . I also have an EV and a few hybrids and the hybrids are much better than all electric. Today my son returned to the Pittsburgh Pennsylvania area from Ocean City Maryland which is about a 5 1/2 hour highway trip usually with speeds ranging from 50 to 70 mph. This is something that would not be possible with an EV that is on the market today in 2024. Everything has its limitations. He drove a 390 hp pick up truck on this trip starting last Wednesday and he averaged just over 20 miles per gallon. He normally would take one of our hybrids his favorite being a RAV4 and that would get in the 40+ mile per gallon range and go from here to there with no stopping for recharging. The problem of course with many EV vehicles is recharging and it is an issue that we face as well with our EV. It's great around town and making deliveries in our business.
Very enlightening! To realise that so much automotive R&D was in place at that time is surprising. I reckon quality was higher then than later in American auto history.
+MrShobar The thing is back in 1950 or so people didn't have the lubricating oils available in 2015. I don't speak from experience, that I believe a car today (Let's say a 2015 model) can go a million miles on its original engine depending on the oil used.
turboslag affirmative action happened, and to meet the quota, more and more unskilled, poor quality workers were hired. All the design in the world will get screwed up by a few assembly workers who negatively impact quality.
There's a certain bias. I live in a pocket of Los Angeles where modern home improvement stores were not a thing, and I was shopping for 1950s parts for 1950s stuff where I was living, and trust me a lot of schlocky junk was made, normally it doesn't survive and only the good stuff does, so there's this bias that in the good old days they only made good stuff. Protip: they didn't.
Rafael F. Bocanegra Because we had more freedom and less government which allowed the market to work full force allowing for mass opportunity. It was our government and policies which destroyed individuals from becoming the best they could be. Just look back at all the rules and regulations which strangled productivity by the neck.
Frank Sells When these rules and regulations get overly detailed, overly strict, and are enforced with a heavy bureaucratic hand, then they do indeed put a straitjacket on entrepreneurial creativity.But imagine if you will, if government automotive safety, fuel economy, and emissions regulations did not exist at all. We would have a lot more smog from car exhaust. And we would have a lot more accident fatalities because of no seatbelts, no airbags, etc. and we would have a lot more gas guzzlers spewing more air pollution and taxing our wallets. Detroit fought tooth and nail to resist putting seatbelts in cars until the mid 60s, saying “cars are not made to get into accidents“ and “seatbelts imply that the cars are unsafe”. Of course, free market competition would have motivated Detroit to eventually make their cars safer, cleaner, and more fuel-efficient. But how many more lives would’ve been lost due to no seatbelts, had not Detroit “voluntarily“ finally started installing them in the front seat beginning in 1964 (rear seatbelts required in 1967, along with dual chamber master cylinders)because of federal government pressure. Sure, they may have done so on their own several years later, and several needlessly lost lives later. Sure, some car makes (ex: Cadillac) installed dual chamber master cylinders earlier. But if all of them did so,the federal legislation might not have been required. But what really would be ideal is that which would spur automakers to make their cars safer, cleaner, and more fuel efficient, as soon as possible, without having to have a federal gun held to their heads. For if there were no such thing as excessive regulation and bureaucratic heavy-handedness (believe me when I tell you I despise bureaucracy!), perhaps Detroit and other automakers would have done these things much earlier than they did, if they felt they were given the choice, without fear of excessive regulation and heavy-handed bureaucratic enforcement. Today, our free enterprise market competition system as we know it, has been found wanting. But so has government regulation as we know it, also been found wanting.What we need is a fundamental change in human nature that would cause industry to make necessary improvements to their products without having to be prodded by governments.
Frank Sells The subversion from outside entities didn't help either. Russia started a campaign of subversion in every facet o American life beginning in the 1930's. and continuing through the 1980's. Schools, colleges, Universities, government, the media, Hollywood, the music industry, you name it they were in it. Others have taken up where Russia left off since then. All you have to do is look around with your eyes open to see it. BUT. There are many Americans who are awakened to what has been going on and I have been seeing a return by many young American's to a wiser and more prudent lifestyle. A harkening back to old principals and morals is emerging in our youth. They have grown up looking at the folly of their parents generation or even their grandparents generation and they are making better choices, more like Americans of the 40's than what has been the norm in recent decades.

Safety wise, they were probably very dangerous but such engineering deserves to be lauded. Chrysler always did have great engineering. The "Fluid Drive" BTW was a German invention in the very early 1900s. It was licensed to many automobile manufacturers in many countries but the United States latched onto it with much more zeal than anywhere else.
I was so disappointed when I drove out and it was closed. I have had as well as my dad Chryslers, Plymouths, Dodges, and now I have a 2016 Chrysler 300 C Platinum which I really love with all it's feature, I'm now 74. My father was big on Chrysler products because of the engineers that created all the proven improvements. It would be great to have it open maybe during summer. Thanks, TED TRETIAK
All the accumulated technology and industrial might depicted here was incorporated into the war machines of WWII and directly impacted the outcome of the war.
They cannot build cars the way they used to because they lasted too long! They make cars to break at some point so you will buy a new one every 3-4 years!
Run on an expensive fuel instead of gasoline ! They're talking about diesel fuel which is more expensive than gasoline now. I remember diesel fuel being less expensive than gasoline. I'm not sure if it was less expensive because it was a by-product of gasoline production or if it was less expensive because crude oil just took less refining to make diesel
Thanks to deregulation of fuel pricing, diesel is priced higher because the oil companies can squeeze the truckers and transport companies easier. Diesel is cheaper to make but, thanks to Reaganomics, the price is not connected to the cost of manufacture. Only to what the market will bear, which is false pricing. And false pricing is a false system of weights and measures.
Austin Lucas “Dude, what’s that you’re making there?” “I’m hollowing out this tree to make a device that can carry us across the river without getting wet. I call it a ‘boat’.” “By the time you’re done making that, I could swim across the river several times over.” “When I’m done making this, we will never have to swim across the river again”.
For instance, more than seven hundred and fifty combinations of alloys were studied over a period of years before the startling announcement of the development of amola steel by our engineers and now used in many parts of the corporation’s products. So amazingly tough is amola steel that a bolt of it can be bent over flat on itself without breaking. A rare spring leaf can be wound into a flat spiral yet it can be made hard enough to cut glass and such is its fine quality that amola, the same steel that’s in axles and springs, will take a beautiful edge and give you a velvety smooth shave.
We should be grateful that Chrysler was saved from bankruptcy in 1981. The K-car and mini van kept middle class U.S.A. going better. Today, the age of proud ownership of an American built car is ending. We are entering an age of population health , size and control. Most cars look alike today and are designed for gasoline mileage and transportation with no personal attachment.
The average design life of a car these days is 6 to 8 years and most last for 10 - I wonder of we have progressed much in this respect - I recall seeing many roadworthy cars on the road over 30 years old the 60s.
I think that depends more on the market's buying habits (omg our car is so old, let's buy a new one!) than how long the cars actually hold together. Here in Sweden it's not uncommon with 30 year old cars still being used as daily drivers.
Yeah but these days cars were way more expensive, you bought one and had to drive it for large part of life or till your death (even if the car turned out bad), because you couldn't afford next car (only the cheapest ones).
MrShobar Like most car companies, Chrysler is feeling the pinch of a revitalized NHTSA that's been a bit lax in recent years. People dying and Congressional hearings gets attention. The public benefits and so with the companies once they get over the hump. Their cars will be better, fewer defects, fewer recalls and they will make more money. Safety and quality are good for the bottom line.
I wonder at what point it was that manufactures started using this research to make sure cars made it through the warranty. And then broke down. Even Harley-Davidson in recent years is got in on the act. Harley engines used to be rebuildable forever now those things that lasted forever, bearings and whatnot are made to break down and cost so much to repair that it's close to the price of the new engine that's engineering for you
King Rose Archives Actually, I spoke too soon. The credits say it's Lowell Thomas. Lowell Jackson Thomas (April 6, 1892 - August 29, 1981) was an American writer, broadcaster, and traveler, best known as the man who made Lawrence of Arabia famous. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lowell_Thomas
This is one impressive industrial film. It's all true. So many people put to work for a bright but disposable future. All if this was dumped into landfills. The toxicity levels of car graveyards and the cars themselves were once talked about openly in the 1960's and 70's but looking back I think it was just to undermine American ingenuity and our great middle class. Americans were the most responsible people, so we thought. Power created our matrix and we are seeing the end of it toward something utterly hideous -- a COVID future of global surveillance, social credit scores, smart cities, one world digital currency to bury the crimes of the Bolshevik banking class whom murdered untold millions and now billions as the "Great Reset" and both Trump and Biden are all about.
Did ya forget to mention Tesla, the father of electricity who invented the AC motor and hundreds of other inventions, his inventions made the 20th century possible from a technological point of view, why is he never mentioned? because he invented free energy device which would mean we wouldn't have to pay for electricity!

You have a buildup of testimony from antiquity and from the writers themselves-a remarkable degree of consistency and consensus, without which two thousand years of culture forming in the face of intense persecution would have been impossible.
@@fairfaxcat1312 There was a time when I would've believed that. The culture forming of Europe would've happened regardless and without the dead weight of an alien religion being imposed upon it. Much of that imposition being by force and the Jesuits.
@@BlackPill-pu4vi How do you account for the persecution even when acknowledging Caesar would have meant freedom? Every disciple, save for John (and Judas for another reason), literally followed Christ to their respective martyrdoms.
@@fairfaxcat1312 IMO, those converts were not the best of Roman society and were vulnerable to the proselytizing aka brainwashing. Their native Roman virtue made them believe, even unto martyrdom. But, that power to believe wouldn't last long. The Late Roman Empire was thoroughly corrupted by the cryptoJews of the time. The outer garments of Rome were visible but, it was no longer Roman in spirit. In any case, buried in Christianity are the Tares of Judaism. The spirit of martyrdom, regardless of the reason, has long been quenched because of it. We also see how modern Xtianity turns men into sheep and women into Jezebels. That is not the Christianity of the Crusades but, the foul native Jewish spirit that is Xtianity's foundation.

The Bolshevik banking class. One more step and the digital silencers roll into action.
Chrysler must be cost cutting on metallurgy. All the rusty Chrysler shit boxes on road
The engineers know their objectives.
Did ya forget to mention Tesla, the father of electricity who invented the AC motor and hundreds of other inventions, his inventions made the 20th century possible from a technological point of view, why is he never mentioned? because he invented free energy device which would mean we wouldn't have to pay for electricity!
Schöner Beitrag. Carl Friedrich Benz fehlt natürlich, wie kann es auch anders sein.🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄 Viele Grüße aus Germany

Chrysler, WTF happened?
I wish Chrysler had done better fatigue testing on springs in my Jeep Cherokee. They broke.
Time to diet.

The producers don’t show Ben Franklin screwing around with women. All kidding aside, you wonder how historically accurate these re-enactments really are.
Four years later but, all kidding aside, how can we trust the Bible itself? Let alone the flamboyant apologetics and embellishments that are integral to sermons. A book written and compiled by the most untrustworthy of peoples in history.
You have a buildup of testimony from antiquity and from the writers themselves-a remarkable degree of consistency and consensus, without which two thousand years of culture forming in the face of intense persecution would have been impossible.
@@fairfaxcat1312 There was a time when I would've believed that. The culture forming of Europe would've happened regardless and without the dead weight of an alien religion being imposed upon it. Much of that imposition being by force and the Jesuits.
@@BlackPill-pu4vi How do you account for the persecution even when acknowledging Caesar would have meant freedom? Every disciple, save for John (and Judas for another reason), literally followed Christ to their respective martyrdoms.
@@fairfaxcat1312 IMO, those converts were not the best of Roman society and were vulnerable to the proselytizing aka brainwashing. Their native Roman virtue made them believe, even unto martyrdom. But, that power to believe wouldn't last long. The Late Roman Empire was thoroughly corrupted by the cryptoJews of the time. The outer garments of Rome were visible but, it was no longer Roman in spirit.
In any case, buried in Christianity are the Tares of Judaism. The spirit of martyrdom, regardless of the reason, has long been quenched because of it. We also see how modern Xtianity turns men into sheep and women into Jezebels. That is not the Christianity of the Crusades but, the foul native Jewish spirit that is Xtianity's foundation.
Chrysler....what a name plate, what a car maker! Have a Fiat Chrysler Abarth 500 now, and love that little hot rod.
God created man perfect, and also created the animal imperfectly, and anyone who believes that his origins are monkeys, he has more origin than us
