Old school comment
Ironicly older instructional videos have more information the the ones we have now
..cause cars were simpler back then unlike now
Abdalrahim Abdullah A modern cgi animation of how a transmission works is fucking bullshit and way too complicated. It's the principle of how stuff works what a learning person needs to know. They explained things in these films expecting the viewer that he knows nothing about the subject and used very simple physical objects to represent stuff that is actually in parts of cars aswell as proceeding slowly with the narrator explaining almost everything.
MLG_420 QUICKSCOPE I can't agree more and thanks for fixing my misconception.
Abdalrahim Abdullah I'd just like for more of exactly these types of videos to be made by channels like Engineering explained.
MLG_420 QUICKSCOPE I like Engineering Explained too, but these types of video where the main focus is cars engineering seems to be covered a long time ago by Chevrolet and it is as good as this video.

Commercials back in the day were no joke. Today, everyone's got a high-definition video/audio recording device in their pocket, sometimes for under a hundred bucks. Back then, cameras and all that were huge, cumbersome, expensive, not easy to operate. Commercials used to be big productions. Animation? Graphics? You can google all that nowadays, and there's probably tutorials.

Chevy today: "if we cut corners and switch from metal parts to plastic"
and they did.
They went from "make sure the metal rusts" , to " make sure the plastic drys to crumbling dust."
I still find it funny how they used to bag on Ford for using aluminum truck beds to reduce weight, just to also switch to aluminum a few years later

His "Teeter-Totter" explanation is the exact reason why you absolutely fly in the back of a school bus when it goes over bumps.
as a kid we used to race for the seat over the tiers on the bus because they was a giant bump in the road and we would jump in the air when we hit it some of us actually hit the roof a few times
These were the days, eh ?
crewboy23 lol we did the same thing and the driver would flip shit.
@@ogrengbuddha5373 we did the same thing. One day the driver changed the route, nobody knew it, then the bump came, we all jumped and flew in the air, and the bus driver turned right.

idk why people nowadays don't make ads that try to teach you something while selling something at the same time.
Partially because people don't want to learn, they like being blissfully ignorant and coasting through life. Not always and not everybody, but it's much more common these days.
Cos they sell Ad space by the seconds now
The video was just slightly under twelve minutes long! Hahah. These days we have many more distractions competing for our attention than we did back then.
Nothing this useful and new is being created anymore, everything is just an updated version of something else
because ads are geared towards the gullible these days, not the thinkers.

It was simple engineering. Today’s engineering is a lot more complicated
@@JT-pt5tl other than electronics, most of these designs haven't fundamentally changed, just been improved upon. But we also live in an Era where the general public doesn't seem to care how anything they use works and the companies don't care to tell them.
@@JT-pt5tl nothing about an ICE car has fundamentally changed since this was made. Sure spring amd shock tech has improved, and the steering arms have changed shape, and we have anti roll bars, but nothing is flying or made of unobtanium. If you watch this, you can understand the fundamentals of cars
It was so simple. And leaded.
@@internetbodhi1009 we've moved from leaded gas, to unleaded, and that gas can make more power than any leaded. We also have EFI instead of Carbs. ECUs, OHC instead of OHV, in the 50s' we also didn't have forged internals yet. Now most cars have forged parts and the processes have been improved to optimize efficiency the pistons are stronger and lighter, while having better optimized shapes. as far as the block and head materials, those are now aluminum or ALSI. Not really much has stayed the same exept Suck, squeeze, bang, push.

You're right, I thought the 50's were more a time of like "let's make it tasty without caring about what's inside" by watching old ads, but they'd probably cook fresh at home, and also people would burn a lot more calories just doing everyday things like housekeeping or just working.

I want to mark my writing here to remind people that I explored this video in 2020. It's one of few educating commercials I have ever found.
9:50 wow the exact same thing that’s in my 1947 Ford super deluxe.
At 9:30... This car is so advanced that it has air ducts to allow air from outside the cabin into the inside of the car where our families are! Here; let me demonstrate by blowing cigarette smoke through this straw directly into your childrens' lungs. XD
Normal vents like this are a feature notably absent in most new cars, and are one of the reasons I won't buy a new car.
Back then cigarette smoking was not injurious to health
Eric Solvesky and right now I’m sitting in my 1937 Chevy smoking cigarettes watching this ..... never felt more at ease
If the vent intake was designed wrong, it would trap a lot of leaves and dirt. Add water from moisture in air and you get rust in hard to clean areas that will condemn your vehicle.
Modern cigarettes aren't 100% tobacco anymore. Around the time of the war, they started using filler & sheet tobacco. That's when coincidentally, cancer from cigs started to rise. Smoke premium tobaccy & you'll be fine 😏
My dad is sort of like this. Always loved when he would explain mechanics like this.
