    My first THREE cars were Beetles followed by a VW Van. Rebuilt one engine when it threw a rod which took out the side of one cylinder.
    Lots of adventures, including a fire in the engine compartment after driving with the right end blown out of the lateral muffler.
    They were definitely iconic of "imported German cars" in the '60s."
    Bad heating so VW invented the 'gas heater' as an option, which burned gas from the tank with its own sparkplug.
    Biggest inconvenience? no gas gauge.

    • @gfurstnsu
      @gfurstnsu 3 месяца назад +2

      Without a gas guage? You are talking about the VW before 1965. I had a 1965 VW that I purchased new in June of that year after graduating from Lafayette College. In the fall I went up to Alaska where I stayed until November of 1967 after finishing my degree at the University of Alaska in College, just outside of Fairbanks. You mention the gas heater? I had one as without one in the winter one could not last long. It worked very well and never failed me. The problem was that the steering box needed a heater too. In the cold weather the grease would become very viscous and it was impossible to steer the car. So every once in a while one had to open the little door there and pore hot water on it. After an hour you had to chip away the ice and repeat the procedure. All these problems mean he did not drive much when it was below -40!

    The Autobahns were not that important militarily. The Panzers were moved by rail because they were too heavy for the Autobahn. Today in the U.S. heavy military equipment also moves by rail, and not on the Interstates.

    • @jamesm3471
      @jamesm3471 4 месяца назад +2

      Yes, and in terms of fuel efficiency, moving heavily armored vehicles like main battle tanks any other way than by rail or ship, especially under their own power, is a nightmare.

    • @johngillespie9459
      @johngillespie9459 4 месяца назад +2

      They actually weren’t too heavy for the autobahn, but for all the local roads and bridges, many of which dated from the era of horse drawn vehicles. But yes, wear on tracks, suspension and engines makes long range movement of heavy armored vehicles by either rail or special trucks a necessity.

    • @austrorus

      what never was mentioned, the Autobahn or at least the very straight parts of it, cold and would be used as airfields.
      And for landing but also starting quickly of aeroplanes.
      There is a film around on the net, and NATO planes had used the Autobahn in trial test runs.
      SINGAPORE to this day has infrastructure oh the highway that leads into town. Only has to remove the - dividers -.
      Bring in the rolling stock, control towers and technical trucks.
      And it works .
      The SWISS had done the same...

    Excellent photography job enabling viewers to better understand what the orator was describing. Special thanks to guest speaker. Making this documentary more authentic and possible. Quite a sinister motive having the allies think the autobahn/Volkswagen. Were only for the benefit of the German population. Quite a sizable rail way gun -!!! 😱.

    I owned one of these early VWs back in the late 70s. My January ‘51 car had cable brakes and no chrome on the sides, and 16 inch wheels. It was actually a barn find in one of the towns on Rt 495. It must have been brought to the US by a returning service man as even they cable brakes were illegal in a new car in the commonwealth of Massachusetts. The interior of the car was exactly as shown in these KDF wagons. It also has the flipper turning signals we called MaksNicks at the time. The color was deep black that looked a little purple in the direction Sun. In 1992 I sold it to a father and son who lived in western Massachusetts. Where is this great car? It did not have the crotch coolers that were on the delux ‘51 VW at the time.

    Schwere Gustav was used to destroy fortifications, not civilian targets. The bombing by heavy bombers of Germany by UK and US, of Japan by US, was directed at the civilians and their houses. McNamara - concerned in the bombing of Japan - has remarked that if they had lost the war they would have been prosecuted as war criminals. Also remember the bombing of many other countries by US - think for example of the bombing of North Vietnam and Iraq.

      You can see part of a 2,000 year old Roman road extremely close to the Cologne Cathedral. In between the two is a museum that houses an underground, large, and ornate room. It was accidentally discovered during construction in WWII. Thank goodness it was preserved! I've been to all three -- the church, the Roman room, and the old Roman road --- talk about surreal! School children are expected to go on a Field Trip to the museum before they graduate from high school.
