I hope you all enjoy living another time with us in this video and check out the National Packard Museum in Warren, Ohio! I like that place and the woman who runs it is doing an amazing job making history matter to the future.
OK, you talked me into it, Casey. It's just down Rt. 534 from where I live by the lake. I've been meaning to go. I want to check out that bar, too! Great video.
Casey, the quality of this video is amazing! I would love to see a "living" history series like this about other subjects as well. I think it would be fun to also learn some history about airplanes, trains, appliances/tools, or even vintage toys. Do what's fun!
Casey, your wife is adorable and you two look so good together! I envy the bond you two have together. She must have a tremendous amount of patience with you, she's a keeper ;-)
Casey - thank you so much for showcasing the National Packard Museum and downtown Warren, Ohio. As a relative of the Packard brothers, it's awesome to see the continued legacy of the Packard line through media like this. My personal favorite is the 1932 Packard 902 Coupe Roadster. "Ask the Man Who Owns One"
Not only dressed to the occasion, but also fitting behaviour and movement. Actors have to train for that a lot. And lets not forget the fitting end in a speak-easy.....Great!
That's the slowest and carefullest I've seen Casey open a hood...EVER. (is carefullest a real word?). Case, thanks for visiting this little known gem in Warren!!!
I had no idea that they even used inline 8 cylinder engines. That's interesting, I wonder if they ever explored more cylinders in that same structure. It would be funny to see how big an inline 10 would be.
Old comment, but Packard did produce a single prototype straight 12 engine, and had it in a driving car specifically made for it since the massive length was longer than any hood could fit. The problems with it was an extremely high amount of crankshaft "whip". This is when a long shaft actually flexes and bends from stress and rotation. While the engine did run, it didn't run very well, was not smooth and due to the extreme amount of strength needed in the block to hold the crank in place made it absurdly heavy. Modern technology could probably be used to make a usable inline 12, but not to any great success since physics are physics, heh. Also, straight 8 engines were around since the early 20's if I remember correctly. Packard was not the first, but they are arguably the most well known for their incredibly smooth and superbly engineered I-8. My 31 Packard has the I-8 and it can cruise comfortably along at modern speeds while still fully original.
I saw a 1936 Dual Cowl Packard at the Indy Speedway Museum many years ago. It was owned by a racer that towed his car all over the country with the Packard. They had mirrors under it, and that oil pan is massive! It had around 360K miles on it and the engine had never been rebuilt. I was so impressed with that car and fell in love with the old Packard's because of it. I don't remember the original owners name, Frank something I believe. Green car that was just outstanding! I'd love to have that one in my garage!
This was super cool I liked that you held a level of professionalism while still being entertaining like hooligan Casey and dad talk Casey all in one (doesn’t the evil lady from 101 dalmatians drive this car )
This is all beautiful, Casey, a ride and history lesson by the Couple d'Elegance. I was listening to every word you said about Packard, fascinating. And your wife's first impression was mine, too, love the color on all those curves, a precursor of sorts to custom cars and those were my favorites during my childhood in California. And an eternal salute to Packard and Rolls for those mighty Spitfire engines. Thanks, Casey, and you look pretty sharp in that hat.
I love the Packard, they truly built some of the finest cars, it was sad to see what happened to the once unstoppable company after the war. If any Packard fans are close to Kalamazoo Michigan I highly recommend the Gilmore Car Museum, I have worked there as a docent for four years, and we take pride in not only being the largest auto museum in the country, but also using our automobiles and exercising them like they were supposed to be. In early April we are opening a Packard exhibit, featuring very rare and iconic Packards.
In my opinion this is my favorite video of yours. If you and your wife went around reviewing old cars and dressing in attire that fits the time period of that vehicle would be fun.
What a handsome couple you are. I think your subscriptions are going to spike with your better half in the videos. Thanks for all your great videos. Cheers from Australia
So cool to see you rolling through my home town! I used to drive through that square everyday to my internship at a titanium mill when I was getting my bachelors degree. Now, 5 years later, I'm still a car guy working in the automotive industry down in Mexico. Found you through the Petrolicious video with your viper. Been a subscriber for a month or two now. Great video. Thanks Casey.
Mrs Putsch scrubs up very well, plus she makes the videos better. Mr Putsch scrubs up very well also. Would love to visit the Packard museum, and it's on the list for next time I'm in 'Murica. Stay safe and well with the Covid-19 starting to appear in the US.
Very cool . As you were driving I noticed the the homes and the cobblestone roads . It looks like my town . Father loved Packard cars . Heard so many stories about racing in the Packard .
"Not much shifting"... that's because the engine torque output oiled handle low speeds quite good: at 850 rpm this car offered more torque than almost any modern car
So to be real for a moment, I had never heard of Packard until you mentioned it. I asked my grandpa about it, and he suddenly lit up, because apparently his dad had one. Apparently it got hit by a train when my grandpa's was 7 or 8. Also Casey, you need to rock the Gatsby look more often. Looks good on you!
Casey looks like a stud today!!! The guy looks like he belongs on the set of The Great Gatsby. You should seriously consider showcasing yourself on a show called Keeping it classy with Casey Putsch!
Casey, there's a very interesting story about the first P51 to get a Merlin (in Egypt no less), with the engine from a wrecked Spitfire being shoe-horned in to a P51 that had a Packard V8 engine destroyed by enemy fire,... The early P51's were target practice for the Luftwaffe, as that initial V8 was terribly under powered for the application. With the fitment of the Merlin, the Mustang became the 'Cadillac of the Skies', where the Spitfire was a purebred racing platform. Packard got the license to make the Merlins, but I think you'll find very few went in to Spitfires, most went in to Mustangs and in to Bombers. Usually, it's an English Chassis getting an American Engine that makes a special combination, but in the P51, it's the other way around. :)
Very,very nice Casey. Great subject, nice presentation of the car and yourself. Well delivered dialog. Top shelf video. Oh, I didn't mention the lady...I guess I didn't have to. She presents herself just fine.
Casey, I hate to tell you this but the vast majority of Curtis P-40 Warhawks and Tomahawks were powered by the Allison 1720 V-12s. This North American P-51 Mustang started out with the Allison, but wasn’t any better speed wise than the Warhawk or Tomahawk until some said let’s install a Rolls Royce Merlin from a Spitfire. And that changed the history of the Mustang forever.
Wish I knew you were coming down. I love three minutes up the road from the Packard museum. My neighbor is one of the curators there. I would love to meet you. Glad you enjoyed your day in Warren Ohio home of 2016 Warren JFK state football Champs!!!
I have massive respect for people who potentially with ruin nice clothes to work on something, nice! Also I never thought I'd hear the term 'wheel pants', but I never knew how badly some wheels needed pants
Talked to an older guy in the '70s. He said Detroit hasn't made a real car since 1936. I'm with him! Then you talk to hard core Pakard guys and they say Packard hasn't made a real car since 1903 because they were all hand made right down to the hand-cut gears. NICE one! A collector in Maine here has/had a '36 120 cnvt. the same exact color. No luggage rack though I think. There may be a chance it's the same car?
You just added more content to the reason you are my favorite youtuber! Great job always. Makes me want to take my '36 Caddy convertible out as soon as the weather improves.
I love Packards! My grandpa was a funeral director and he had Packard and Cadillac Hearses of this era. Too bad they were all sold off by my bum uncle.
Leatherman for win! I love my Wave use it almost everyday. Cool old car they where made to last and run smooth. The torque on the straight 8 must be amazing. Horsepower is one thing but the torque is what really moves you. 1903 80mph mist have felt like 200mph. Why are cars only doing 70-80mph now? Should we not be able to do 100mph with today’s roads... but people can think that fast so 70 is good I guess.
This is a great video. The two of you should do another video together, and I'm not the first person to say that. If I didn't know better, I'd say Central Casting put the two of you together.
I once broke a priceless fishing lure but later repaired it with a museum packard.
DA HAHAHAHHAHAHA!!!! You win the internet today!
@@CaseyPutsch best.... video ......ever!.....
I'd love to have one!
Id daily a 1931 Fleetwood Roadster myself if I could
Cleveland Maker awesome and thanks for watching!

Agreed. The 611 J would be a fantastic subject!
That's it! You will now be referred to as Casey "pretty face" Putsch. (great car btw, love that era)
Roadside repair @ 7:35
"I'm not just a pretty face"
I love this guy.
I hit the "like" button as soon as you said, "I think we should go drive it."
Casey, your wife is adorable and you two look so good together! I envy the bond you two have together. She must have a tremendous amount of patience with you, she's a keeper ;-)
It's cool how cars from the 30s can still work okay in modern traffic.
Kind of shows that not a lot has changed.
Not really! Still a great car!

@@TheDutchSoupPissingCompany that was one of the best parts! They nailed the period.
I don't know how I missed this video.
What an excellent review, you did it with the class the car deserved and is missing in todays world.
This video is like next level quality. Camera work, presentation, plot, everything. Props to you casey!!
Thanks! It was a TON of work but hopefully worth it.
That's the slowest and carefullest I've seen Casey open a hood...EVER. (is carefullest a real word?).
Case, thanks for visiting this little known gem in Warren!!!
Well it isn’t my car. :)
My grandfather had a Packard. You never forget the sound of 1st and 2nd... Very distinctive
That's how car ownership should work. It breaks, one fixes it oneself on the side of the road. Job done! Excellent!
A car like a Packard is a time machine that takes you to a different era.
Great video... a wonderful mix of entertainment, cars and history our great state. Thanks Casey !
Chris Smith you got it! More to come!
I know very little about cars from that time period but seriously the style all cars had back then was truly amazing. Thanks for the awesome video.
You got it! Thanks for watching!
Wow. The amount of knowledge you have with these old beauties is incredible. Can you do more videos like this? I loved it.
Yeah! More to come:
@@CaseyPutsch **does a little happy dance**
This video should NEVER get a single thumbs down. Amazing work Casey !!! Like the ads used to say, Packard, As The Man Who Owns One. :-)
I thought the same thing!

“I thought we were going to dinner?”
“So, we’re now married...”
90% of the time it works 100%.
Taking his wife to a Speakeasy like a boss!
Liquid dinner, haha
The best kind!
Thank you for the terrific video and the tribute to Packard and the Museum. I loved the 1949-50 four door models.
This was super cool I liked that you held a level of professionalism while still being entertaining like hooligan Casey and dad talk Casey all in one (doesn’t the evil lady from 101 dalmatians drive this car )
Thanks! Glad you liked it.
I think the car that Cruella De Vil from 101 Dalmations drives is loosely meant to be a Avions Voisin, but I could be mistaken
shoominati23 ok I wasn’t sure haven’t seen it in forever
Man, I just love the art deco era. Gorgeous cars.. heck, even the door knobs and light switches in homes were ornate.
Oh for sure. It is a beautiful car

This is one of your best videos Casey "pretty face" I really enjoyed it. Thanks!!

This is awesome. Seeing cars sit at a show is frankly kind of boring. Give them the love they deserve, let them show off and strut their stuff!
Love the mid 30s cars with the big straight 8, would love to have a duesenberg just so so expensive
This is beyond very cool. This is extremely cool.
Dapper Dan, beautiful car. I love Packards.
Looking quite dapper there old fellow, and a lovely lady to see a town in a real piece of American history!
Honored that you're watching!
Wonderful video. I'm a big fan of the Noir films of that time. You and your wife (11 out of 10) represented it well. And represented the museum well.
Nice format, love the suit and the history bits! Thank you, Casey, for quality content!

Man you're pretty lucky to drive that. Looks like a great car!
Great video! Liked the whole concept, more please! Keep up the great work!
My grandparents old house in Detroit was right next to the old Packard plant.
I've never heard the idiom 'hauling the mail', but I love it! I will be using it going forward. Overall, great video!
First classic I ever drove was a 48 packard with the column shift straight 8. Very nice cars.
This was perfect Casey, thanks for the ride along and history lesson!👍
