poor chap

Vasco.

Indeed

Such a one eyed monster - gotta agree, she's gorgeous

This steampunk look is amazing. And the guy fits perfectly.

Cool huh?!

Angry cyclops

Agreed. It reminds me of some kind of steam punk robot that wants to kill me. I love it.

It's super cool 😍😍

Sure one would not mistake one for a motorcycle at night.

Very good, A Lincoln!

🤣😆😂🤣😆😂

LOL! Very good.

Well played

my 2003 ford taurus was getting there. it had a good size hole in the back right passenger floor board. if the carpet wasn't there you'd see the road. the engine was pretty reliable. i traded it in for a 2016 ford fusion thats now on its 3rd engine... I regret not saving more money to buy something better. i got 4 more years left with this POS.

For 1908, that's pretty hi-tech.... all things in context

Naah. This is high-tech; it's screwed to the wood!

Current Batches Surely its held down by catgut webbing?

@Robie Billy Invented by that guy Newton, right?

@@currentbatches6205 the baker that makes the cookies man I love those fig cookies

I know a guy who drives his ratty ascona everywhere but has 3 mint condition ones just sitting in his barn. They don't even really see sunlight.

Ah, he still flow around him.

They sped up a few sequences in the video, that was one of them, it wasn't as close as it looked.

watch the goodwood races

That's a duel seat car tho...

TIP TOP.

There is an aerospace version of the Subaru flat 4 engine, a version of the Subaru flat 4 is also used it many rally cars, so stickily speaking there are racing cars with aeroplane engines still today, lol.

That's the exact same story as mine haha.

You're right. And I thought my 2000 Nissan Altima 5spd was beautiful and primitive heehee.

We're missing simple cars these days 😢

ERECT!!

Nasty!

What a sound!!

Yes, actually.

But it's a petrol car...

Yes it's gasoline but Jay Leno's real steam engine cars powered by steam just look like boring normal 1910s cars

@@tacokoneko Do you know why? Because steampunk is not real

It rides the line between steampunk and dieselpunk. Then again, so does the era it was built in!

+Goodwood Road & Racing My friend Edward had a real nice 1971 Ford Pinto, but I don't think there are any left on the road.

Goodwood Road & Racing We need longer videos, how are we supposed to learn more about these wonderful machines? I'd love to see more GN's, a video on the GNat would be something really special :)

Awsome cars! Thanks

Goodwood Road & Racing This might be a daft question, but do you need insurance to drive it? If you do, then how much would it be? Does it need an MOT? And lastly, if you were to build one out of vintage parts, would it be Road legal nowadays, or would it have to be classified as a kit-car? This looks like a good parts hunting excuse to build your own!

I'm no expert on vintage cars, but I believe cars *first registered* before a certain date are exempt from many regulations. I *think* that includes MOT, but you *would* still need some form of insurance. A kit car built "new" from vintage parts would not qualify, because it wouldn't have that "first registered" grandfather exemption. There are specialist insurance firms for vintage cars, and they would undoubtedly stipulate that the car has to be roadworthy for their insurance to be valid.

There are still cars made with wooden chassis. MORGAN !!!

I was about to mention Morgan, but the guy before me already did.

Pretty much every wheeled road vehicle was built of wood (usually Ash) before IC engines began to appear, so if it worked why not stick with it?

At that time wood was the lightest and strongest material readily available.

@@willemstreutgers1154 No, they dont have a wooden chassis. they have a meatal chassis, but the steel bodywork does have a wooden frame under the skin of it, much like most early cars used to.

What I believe the kids call *ahem* "steam punk"

@@SebAnders Or even dieselpunk given the grime and gasoline involved. :)

And to this day, the most advanced and powerful american V8 has a pushrod activated 2 OHV per cylinder configuration, and a single cam at the bottom of the V... My 15 year old lawnmower's got an OHC... the colonials will never cease to amaze me XD

Jean-Charles Weyland the LS is a great engine. More cams doesn’t equal better lol.

I never said that. I compared overhead cam and overhead valves. A OHV and a OHC engine have the same number of cams, it's the head configuration that really changes. Hemispherical combustion chamber with two valves inclined by 35° is not the most efficient design you can come up with. A stock LS1 makes 345hp for a displacement of 5,7liter which makes 60,5hp per liter. A 1973 Opel Commodore GSE makes 170hp from a 2.8liter OHC straight 6 => 60,7hp per liter. It's not a bad engine, but it's no high output engine by any means... If you take a Hellcat 707hp for 6,2liter blown v8 or 114hp/l and a Fiat 500 Twinair (2 cylinders) 105hp for 875cc (0,875liter) => 120hp/liter... Doesen't equal better but higher power output and no reliability issues !

Ford made one for the Sherman tank.

Ford made a DOHC engine in 1939 for tanks. It was a 1100 cu. in. V8 and was called the GAA engine.

Mike Frost they didn’t have ABS in those days.

It has push-n-pray brakes. Push the pedal and pray what's in front of you gets out of the way in time.

There's a reason they never talk about the brakes. To say they're a bit of an afterthought on cars like this would be an understatement.
