Hard to discuss an entire decade of automotive design in less than five minutes, but not bad! I predict many of these iconic designs will be re-released as electric or hydrogen vehicles, like in the movie 'Gattica' or Justin Timberlake's, 'In Time'. Check out the Jag in the latter.
The 1930's was *"The Decade of the absolute Best Automobile Body Designs"* to date. One of my favs was *"the Auburn"* Stellar! - Google it - and *look at the design of the Bugatti in the 30's!* Great Share!
It’s not COMMITTEE OF Industrial Organizations, the CONGRESS of Industrial Organizations is not A union, auto or otherwise. The Congress of Industrial Organizations (CIO) was a federation of unions that organized workers in industrial unions in the United States and Canada from 1935 to 1955. Originally created in 1935 as a committee within the American Federation of Labor (AFL) by John L. Lewis, a leader of the United Mine Workers (UMW), and called the Committee for Industrial Organization. Its name was changed in 1938 when it broke away from the AFL. It focused on organizing unskilled workers, who had been ignored by most of the AFL unions.
I think the unions was helpful for factories workers but, a nightmare for the companies. That's why we don't have many factory workers today because of the demands that the unions put on the industries! Sad but true! 😔🙁
Well not exactly. Probably just dumb demands with the prospect of poor productivity. German industry is thriving with union labor. But, I think their workers are productive and don't attempt to get greedy and put the companies out of business.
Gloria Davis your a fool and fell for the con line of the rich. Factories in Germany have strong unions. The workers have good incomes, and the rich are still rich, maybe not as obscene rich like American factory owners, but they still live in mansions with hired help and drive Mercedes etc.
The free trade agreement is why we don't have factory workers. All factories are in other countries now. In the middle of the 1900s American made 40% of the world's manufactured goods.
Yah, they also saw it in color because it was normal life, and had the brain capacity to see the easy difference since they were very different looking.
@@WitchKing-Of-Angmar Thank gosh I never claimed to have a full knowledge of the 1930’s. My knowledge starts 1950’s and up so here’s a cookie 🍪 for knowing more than black as a car color 👏
Problem is those older cars all had reliability issues. Todays cars last MUCH longer. The main problem with today's cars are too many plastic parts. Older cars were better in that respect by using more steel. Maybe that's what you're partly referring to.
In 1930 the average life expectancy of a new vehicle was 6.75 years. That could be about 50,000 to 90,000 miles depending on how individuals were using their vehicles. It would be rare to travel long distances in the thirties. In the fifties, sixties and seventies, cars improved to last about 100k miles. Nowadays cars can easily reach 200k miles and more with basic maintenance.
Tesla recently decided to break our Model S by pushing a firmware update. Car still drives, but the touchscreen doesn’t work. So no AC, no radio, and for some strange reason, no turn signals. It’s also slower to respond now, and everything just feels... ...ugh! So until these jerks can fix it under warranty (they keep canceling service center appointments and sending technicians out to us) I’ve been driving my 26yo ford. 193,000 miles and it works. Why wouldn’t it? I also don’t get range anxiety with it either!
And it was the unions that nearly destroyed us auto makers. Paying livable wages is one thing but driving the cost of labor through the roof is another. Look at Detroit today.
who needs Detroit when you have China Japan India ? and look who is now ships crew they go around looking for the cheapest place to hire labour so you just make the cars where its cheapest and then ship them at lowest cost
Actually stock speculation on credit caused a overheated market until the bubble finally burst . just like the tulip market in Holland in the 1600's . if you don't know about that ,read up on it . the parallels are striking . old man Kennedy got out of the market early before the crash because his shoeshine boy tried to give him a stock tip on a stock he knew was nonexistent.
the ‘20’s had horseless carriages, not the ‘30’s!!!!! i remember some of those cars as they were still on the road in the ‘40’s and there lots of movies with those cars. they seem like normal cars to me - old ones, normal :) 🚓
Cars in the 1920s could NEVER be called horseless carriages you nitwit. Only the Model T and its dilapidated design and weak color point could be seen as a horseless carriage because it looked like one in 1926, and it looked like one in 1908. Ford is significantly known for his lack of change in design, and singlehandedly made the automobile industry into a joke for modern people today looking back at the 1920s and forgetting that other vehicles beside the ghastly model T existed.
Those cars were things of beauty. Good to look at and easy to fix
I’m 28 and I’ve got a 1939 LaSalle
Cool Keep It Clean
Great commentary!! Love the footage. Well done. 👍
I love these videos what beautiful time in history 😀 the people the culture everything !!!!
Nicely done, really enjoyed ☺
that last driver at the end of the vid was dangerously trying to pass another car on a blind hill ....

Safety glass and wipers were both products of the 1920s.

decent wages, safe working conditions, 8 hour day ... totally unfair demands eh trumptard?
you're wrong! robots put humans out of work... and it's only the beginning, in 30 years AI will put 80% of humans out of work!!!

The cars built in the 1930s are some of the best ever built. They don’t make them like they used to.
Im a care taker of a 1938 Pontiac deluxe
Thank you sir
When you’re basically unsure of which car is yours because there’s a hundred others in the same parking lot 🤪😂
Just like today

What a strange accent is this a posh boys accent in the US?
Sounds like he has braces. But what's wrong with it? Mightuhv been a homework assignment. Also, I'm gonna guess a northern accent.
What accent?
Henry Ford was right! read his book "the international Jew."
Written for him. He could hardly write.
Henry was right!
