    Good followup to the Franklin engine episode. That side vent is ahead of its time, and tilt hood big trucks didn't have them until the 60's. Gorgeous car. First pick 1925 Jordan great line 8 phaeton, second 1925 Apperson 6.
    Good vibrations Beach boys.

    Lots of interesting choices in the WYR today. I like the variety of hood/grill treatments in the Franklin. I can't see the shovel-nose front end without recalling the statue in the first "Cars" movie. Theatsong is a real earworm for me; hope I'm not stuck humming this all week!

    Thanks for a good look at an interesting car Jay. It was interesting to see that the grille mesh looks very like a honeycomb radiator. They must have felt the pressure even then to look like everyone else. One thing that escaped your attention is that most Franklins, including the feature car, used a wooden chassis (frame). Cheers.

    Another great episode of a nice car. I'm always drawn air cooled engine passenger cars (other than Volkswagen Beetles). I really like that 1906-1910 barrel design. I'd choose the 1925 Cole Demi Sedan in the first and the 1925 Franklin in the second.

    Hi Jay! That is a VERY clean Franklin! Those were all such interesting cars! The removable window sedan was a pretty darn good idea for the time! At least if it started raining you would have the top to protect you! WYR One. . .going to be a homer here and pick the car from Indiana the Cole V-8. Two. . .Doing the same thing! That Apperson 6 is COOL!

    First, I loved that you started with the first US national spelling bee! Another excellent example for you to film and your loyal viewers to enjoy. The color of this car is very unusual for the day (and today, for that matter) -- do you happen to know if it was an original Franklin color of the day?

    WYR: Franklin and Franklin. Of note - the fake radiator added to the later Franklins was done to make them look like other cars. They weren't selling as well because of the styling. Song (I Love) The Flower Girl, The Cowsills.

    Looks like you got your money's worth from your trip to Greenfield Village! Only issue I have is that 31 HP rating...from 236 cubic inches? The 28 Model A had 40 hp from 200". After looking at that intake manifold set-up, I think the breathing might be a bit stifled. WYR= I'd take any, but the Franklin has *air cooling!* NTT is on another post. Very enjoyable video, Jay!

    The rounded body work really seems ahead of it's time. Probably too ahead since they switched to more common body styling.

    h.h.franklin is one of the most unsung heros of automobiles. the largest user of aluminum at the time, his cars were in every way comparable to packard. look at that intake manifold, the mixture can go either way. those rocker boxes, what engineering. the first six in this country was franklin. however there are concerns too. one third of the power was used for cooling. the frame on the car you feature is laminated wood. be cautious of this. at the end h.h. switched to pressed steel. the styling may not meet with approval of everyone.. i like it, but then, there is no car that i respect more than franklin. that you for show casing this one, the company lasted until the 1970's. tucker used a modified franklin engine. best wishes

    Not a fan of the grille shape, but the mascot is wonderful. Otherwise a nice car with style- love the tuck-and-roll seat upholstery. WYR Its a phaeton so the Jordan wins by default. And then the Apperson.

      That is the only color of the bunch. I haven't done a video yet. I just found out about it earlier on this year. They are one of the first companies to offer a V8 back in 1914 a V8 back in 1914. But there isn't any information about it seems like a very elusive they were expensive later on it think they got absorbed into Haynes
