Well done Alexander. Howard's story is an important one in his general area by all accounts. You did a fantastic job and I'm sure his friends and family will be glad to have this video in the future.

Take away the background music, hard to hear the gentleman.

My mother's cousin worked for the Rolls Royce factory in Springfield, MA in the 1920's. I remember him saying that they would test the engines for vibrations by placing a glass of water on top of it and looking at the ripples created by the running engine. They would calibrate the engine until there were no ripples left. Crude yet effective!

Howard's collection is a treasure especially with the stories behind each car he has acquired. This video is a wonderful documentation of his collection. With all of Howards knowledge, he is the most valuable treasure. I'm sure it was a special treat for Alex to be able to hear the stories and film the collection.

Many thanks to Howard for sharing this amazing collection. There is a lot of history here! Thank you, Alex, for bringing this to us. It was a delight to hear Howard talk about these historic vehicles.

What beautiful cars! I've loved old cars ever since my grandfather restored 2 back in the '50's when I was little. My favorite line in this story was how one car just leads to another----sounds like a guy named Alex!

Howard’s collection is amazing. His stories about each car brings the collection to life. My husband & I were very proud to have had Howard chauffeur us in one of his cars for our wedding. A cherished memory.

I usually skip the car videos, but this was fascinating and I watched the whole 51.46 minutes! Alex your skills in interviewing were superb, allowing this lovely gentleman to tell his stories in his own quiet way. And you even had a cat in it.

Not a car person but enjoyed every moment of the show. So nice to have met Howard.

I'm not a car enthusiast. This video is fantastic. So much history and a delightful guide.

No wonder Howard is so social - what a great guy to spend some time with.

Wowzers what a collection! Thank you Howard for doing the work all these years. Your passion and loving preservation of that passion are evident in your collection.

His knowledge and memory is unbelievable!

What an interesting man !although he’s a collector his house is very tidy ,he’s displayed everything.All the cars are amazing

I am amazed at the memory this man has. A wealth of information!

I think what impressed me more than the cars was Howard's memory of all the details from the time he aquired the car to if they had been restored before or after his purchase and how much he had driven each one.

Not a car person, but I’m a sucker for those with enthusiasm for what they do! Thanks for introducing us to Howard.

What a beautiful collection of cars and the history. Howard’s passion for these vehicles is amazing a true testament of his love and dedication.

My Dad Is A huge Car Buff. Life is Hell for him since 2019. IAM gunna show him this Video and will make his day. Thanks Thanks Howard .

I am not interested in cars and usually skip your episodes that have to do with cars, but this was absolutely fascinating. Please thank Howard for his time and sharing his vast knowledge. Nice to know there are collectors who aren't kooks!! Thanks to you, too, for your good interviewing skills.

Guys like Howard are far and few between. Meeting guys like him is a treasure, a perfect example of how humble hard work and effort lead to big things. Listening to his story and quiet enthusiasm is half of the enjoyment. I'd bet this video gets better long term views, I'd bet a lot of people will checking it out years from now. Thanks for sharing

Not going to lie, imay have shed a tear or two, remembering my late dad, who was such a car guy, and restored a few cars of his own-primarily Chryslers and Dodges. He would have loved this for sure! I swear there wasn’t anything he didn’t know about antique cars- makes, models, years, engines, special feature-you name it! But he had a special place in his heart for Auburns, Cords, and Deusenburgs, and he visited the museum in Auburn Indiana every year during their ACD Days celebration. Good memories!

WOW! Incredible collection, thank you Howard for sharing it.

What an awesome collection Howard has put together. I know some he bought restored but the attention to detail he has and his knowledge of these vehicles is outstanding. Thank you for giving us the privilege of seeing such fine craftmanship. Must be amazing to drive or ride in any one of these .Keep Safe ❤Keep Well❤

Enjoyed visiting with Howard and all his beauties.

Stunning. A friend in the UK used to work for Hooper and have sent him the video as I think he can bring a few of these stories to life for Howard. It's an amazing life lived every day. Wow!

Howard is one of the unassuming men that has a fantastic history, it really should be written down, but I’m sure your video has gone some way to saving his story 😊 well done 😊👍

What a gem Howard is!!! He is so knowledgeable and doesn't skip a beat about the history of each vehicle. This could be you someday, Alex, sitting in a recliner and passing on so much information to the next generation!!! 🥰🥰🥰

You should donate a copy of this video to the museum. It's a part of his story and a part of history.

What an amazing collection! And a great interview. Howard seemed to get younger and younger as he walked around. His enthusiasm is wonderful to see!

Wow, what a collection! So knowledgeable too..both of you! Thanks Howard!

what a great story from Howard, lovely legacy. thank you for the journey into his history

Beautiful history beautiful cars thank you for sharing your collection Howard and thanks for the video Alex

Wow, such a fabulous interview! I could listen to Howard talk about his cars all day! I drove a 1957 Chrysler New Yorker in High School and I love classic cars because of it!

Oh such beauties! Well done Howard!

Sound advice! Great looking car collection. Hats off to you Howard!! 🎉 Thanks for bringing this to us. I know you had a good time.

Oh my goodness! What an incredible collection! Beautiful.

Alex, you were very good at this sit down. Interviewing people and hearing their stories of why they do what they do is interesting as well as seeing their interest. I'm sure there are endless amounts of fascinating people there with not only stories but hobbies to go along with them. Weather it's eccentric people just enjoying life and their love for things or modest laid back people like Howard, I enjoy it. It reminded me of a long loved weekend show called the Texas Country Reporter. Now it's episodes are on youtube. If you ever hear of or come across more people with time capsule basements again, I would love to see more of those too. Well done!! The cat is so cute. I always enjoy your jokes LOL

Such a delightful man. Thank you so much for sharing the magnificent collection of beautiful cars.

Wow! This interview was one for the history books! Excellent😊

What a lovely gentleman, thank you for sharing your wonderful collection with us Howard.

An amazing collection and the property of a most interesting and unassuming gentleman! Everything housed beautifully too! Thankyou Alex, for being able to present this and introducing us to such an informed and genuine character! XXX

0ne of the best historical tutorials Ive ever watched!!!!! please bring more?

This post is very much appreciated. What a wonderful, and personal, collection of historically important cars. Condition. Condition. Condition.

Thank you for sharing Howard and his collection. What a wonderful gentleman and I would enjoy hearing more about his adventures and life. Fran

You couldn't afford to build cars like that any more especially with all the wood. Absolutely gorgeous back when cars had soul

Beautiful cars! Howard is an interesting person, and the interview is a treasure!

I would have listened for another hour…so interesting and informative.Excellent interview Alexander.

Thankyou Howardfor sharing your interesting story!

Great video and a lasting tribute to Howard. Guys like him I'm afraid aren't being born anymore. Or at least not very often. He's a treasure.

This guy has such great knowledge and memories! It's wonderful you did this video to capture it all!

You have found your kindred spirit! Howard is an amazing wealth of information and interests. Pilot, luxury antique cars, and farmer!

Howard is so cool !! I have never moved either !! I thought I was the only one.

This interview is pure gold. Not just for your region but all of North America.

Great video. Howards car collection is magnificent. His knowledge of them is amazing.

What an amazing collection and such a lovely man. Howard is so down to earth and knowledgeable. Very enjoyable tour of gorgeous cars. Thanks for sharing.

This video is one of the best things that KZfaq provides a platform for all of us to see. This is priceless, not only to his family but the rest of us as well. Alex has perfect manners, shows his respect and actually listens to the story. Thank you!

Wow! What a beautiful collection! Howard is so sweet and soft spoken.

Howard has quite the memory and some wonderful stories ! And oh ya some RR's !

What a beautiful opening. Perfect showcase of his car collection.

Wow. Really interesting! When my wife and I were married we were in Cape Town and had chauffer-driven 1935 (I think) 20/25 Rolls Royce as our wedding car. The gentleman that owned it was the chauffer (of course!). He also had a an old polished aluminium 1925 Phantom that was once owned by some Maharajah in India. It was actually the car I wanted for our wedding car, but my wife opted for the 20/25 because it was so windy on the day. That's Cape Town! Interesting the description he gives of "quarter-sawn" wood. To a sawyer, there are three types of cut woods: plain/flat-sawn, quarter-sawn and rift-sawn, and it depends on where the wood is taken from the log. Looking at the end grain, if the growth rings are arched, the board is considered plain or flat sawn. If they are are steeply angled, they're quarter-sawn, and if they are less steeply angled, the board is considered rift-sawn. Plain-sawn wood can cup; quarter-sawn is more stable and the back and front of the board has the same grain pattern. Rift-sawn is also stable but will also have grain on the edges. The sawyer achieves quarter-sawn grain by cutting the log into four quarters along the length of the log, and then each quarter is cut into planks at a 45 degree angle, like slices in a pie.

i was expecting a hoard. So nice to see someone who actually has a collection and treats it as it deserves.

Alex you must of been in heaven ❤️ Excellent coverage...love your choice of music ♥️

Howard seems like an enjoyable person. Full of knowledge and passion for his collection. Truly amazing cars. WOW! THANKS Alex!

Exceptionally cool! Thanks Alexander.

That plane resembles a 1946 Swift. Love his amazing collection. He's one of a kind.

What a beautiful collection and such a lovely man.

This was a beautiful, personal video that Howard graciously offered. People may scoff at collectors, but if you interview them, they will make you smile and cry

Simply AMAZING. I could watch Howard and his videos daily. We all know the Rolls Royce name and I now have the highest level of respect for their products.

It wasn't a Grey Poupon jar but I still laughed hard at the reference 😝 Great collection, it's amazing!

Very interesting !! ......... how Howard showed us the car in the state it was, when shipped from the factory without the actual body mounted on it. I've never seen this before. Thank you Howard .

Wonderful! My favorite moment was when you were discussing how the carriage holding the driver being outside the coach was likely a transitional design relatively shortly after horse and buggy era.

Thank you for the guided tour of this magnificent collection!

Wow what a collection! Thank you Howard for sharing and thank you Alexander for bringing us his story.

I absolutely loved this video! The history of how Howard acquired his love and restoration and preservation for all these classic Rolls Royce classic cars and the stories for everyone to enjoy is priceless. As Huell Howser used to say, "That's Amazing!" Would love more historical interview stories like this in the future.

Wonderful tour, love the old cars

That was wonderful. My dad was a car enthusiast. ...made me think of him. He especially loved Hudson's ☺

I'm blown away by that collection of Rolls!!

The history that Howard gave us cannot be found in any books. Thank you for sharing Howard and to Alex, thank you for another video with substance.

I loved this video featuring Howard & his wonderful collection of cars! I felt the music was perfect for this type of interview! Well Done Alexander! Looking forward to the next adventure! 💞Best to you from BC

So interesting...saw you and Stephen go to the museum. But this was so fun meeting him.

Cool collection!

Thank you, Mr. Howard for letting us see the collection of R & R . this is my dream car . I was like a kid in a candy store when he was showing them to you for us to see.

Thank you very much, Alexander. Although I don't know much about cars I enjoyed watching this.💗

Interesting guy. Thank you for sharing.

What a sharp man that Howard is!!

It's so nice to see the person behind the collection. Well done, Alexander.

Thank you for introducing us to Howard and his fabulous collection.

I could listen to Howard all day long about his life and cars.

I think this video maybe is one of best you have done. I am fan of your channel from beginning. A real testament to one mans dedication. Frank

That was like a documentary. Howard is very thoughtful and great guide - I loved how he told his personal story too. I would have to say he's a role model for retirees because he has found new energy and motivation not to become a couch potato! Thanks Alex once again for reminding us about the people behind the collections.

What a wonderful story. Thank you for sharing.

So happy that you have filmed this gentleman speaking about these wonderful cars ! It means that so much original history and back story is preserved

Words fail me. What an achievement. What an individual.

Wow, what a collection.

What an amazing gentleman and his knowledge, generosity and talent is unbelievable. Might have to make our way to Leduc this summer!.
