28:04 OH YEAH!
@J K You are proof liberals are mentally ill.
@J K it don’t matter if he did the work 100% himself or not. The point is, he got a car that needed rescued. He got it, got it fixed up, now its sitting in a awesome museum. So for that, that’s pretty cool. The museum gave him a shoot out so something to be proud of. Stop trying to be so negative, enough of that in this world.

@@JetFire9 you hit the nail on the head my friend or you hit hammer with the hammer? Hammer and Sickle......... you get it ........ lol
Great job tavarish
Shout-out to the camera man, not a lightweight rig, and he's stepping over electrical cords and railings, peeking in windows and i didnt see one reflection or direct lighting glare from the camera or a single boom shadow either. Additionally nice job to all involved, amazing production team, and as COO I expected his knowledge to be extensive but his fluid transitions and dynamic story-esc narration over the tour timeline make it a truly one of a kind experience. Thank you for creating it.
@Michael K could you pronounce that for me?
Sorry, mate, but at 4:15 we can all observe the cameraman caught in the reflection of the Mercer headlamps.
🤔🤔🤔..now that you say it.... It actually is........ ✌️
Well, thats true, but you could see him in a reflection
Truly superb photography!
Shout out to the Guy who walked more than 2 hours with us!
And the camera man too
We 100% agree with you on that. Most of us will never be able to see the museum,, with the most informative tour hosted by Michael Bodel's knowlegable help which we so much appreciate, we've had a brief view. The museum is absolutely amazing and we hope it can survive this shutdown.
Thanks to the guy! I think the difficult is to speak so much and giving info and history...
Uhmmm i think he did uhhh a pretty good uhhh job uhhhmmm
This a great walk through history. Any kid who wants to talk any kind of car stuff should start here. Well done on the comentary as well. So much knowledge. I think I need to watch it about 9 times to remember all the facts.
One of the few KZhead vids that's more than 30min long that I didn't skip even for a sec.
That F40 is pure art.
It's beautiful!!😍
But WHERE abouts is it ? Could you please give me an EXACT TIME it appears on this video.. Thanks
The Ferrari F40 i mean.. Thank You
That GT40 is drop dead gorgeous.
I know right!
Its beautiful!!😍
That Dusenburg is nothing less than magnificent
1:36:30 missed opportunity to put austin powers beetle in parking spot 69 yeah baby.
Bro.... 😎
I hope they’ve moved that or plan to very soon.
39:34 James Hetfield Collection
The comment section is great for this video. Everyone is blown away and so grateful for such an amazing tour. You Guys really did a great job here and Thank You to both of you for it.

As someone who had heard of the Petersen Automotive Museum through various reading materials growing up, but have not yet been able to visit in person, this was truly a treat to watch!
Next time the place is open and you are in Los Angeles come visit it.
@@busman7228 I live on the other side of the globe, but if there's an opportunity to do so, I definitely will! 🙌
1:41:05 hi low cars!!!
my goodness... respect for the guy who knows them all without using a sheet... his memory is as big as the vault he's showing. Love the collection
Whatever they're paying this walking encyclopedia of their collection, it's not enough.
How on earth is he able to walk and talk that for hours. Didn’t skip a beat.
Yeap I don't get it way he wears that mask there
@@BaxterretxaB Im thinking in those times he didnt take us to walk down the stairs... he took a couple hours break. May have even recorded it over a number of days.
@@docmarc36 Would you wear the same clothing over a number of days?
Reuben Mentor ummmmm. You do realize how easy it is to wear the same clothes so that you can edit a video to seem as if it was one day? Have you ever watched a movie? Do you think every scene is shot in one day? 😂
18:42 BMW M1- never seen this car before - super cooljjjj 25:55 WOW!!! 27:10 WOW! 2:01:42 Scimitar car? WoW . Yes we need more info.
I grew up watching this car at Sebring it was the Red Lobster car in 1980 amazing!
Thank you soo much for doing a virtual tour because I probably wouldn’t be able to go there because i live really far away
Wow, lock me in and throw away the key. What a collection😍
Jjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjj
Jjjjjj
Njjjjjj
Jjjjjjnojjoninjjon you nn
Nnnjnninjjjjnjn
11:00 Mercedes 300SL Gullwing. My favourite classic car. Beautiful.
Wow! Enormous street cred to this guy...how the hell he remembers each vehicle is beyond me. Great work!
Thank you so much for doing the virtual tour! I can’t wait to see them in person!!!
James Hetfield's Collection is amazing. Excellent gallery!
I love how informational this video is, i can’t wait for the museum to open back up to see these cars in real life. I love how you guys managed to keep the car culture alive, and made a video to showcase these cars for those who haven’t been able to see them in person!
OMG! That was so good! It took me about 4 sessions to watch it, and I loved every break. I toured the museum with the Porsche Experience, and saw so many rotations in the Vault. Even at the 2hr mark; I saw my dream garage. Everything was so superb and beautiful
Great video totally enjoyed this 👍 from Noosa Australia 🇦🇺
Seeing the Petersen Museum in person has been on my bucket list for some time. Thank you so much for showing the fantastic collection and bringing it to our homes! I watched every minute! This museum is a real automotive gem in America just like the Henry Ford Museum.
like
I've watched this a couple times now, and I guess I'm going to have to go to a 65" TV to appreciate it even more. I like nature videos too but I really like cars.
I love how you guys keep your cars in perfect condition
Did you not see all the flat tires?
Most of them are private collections or owned by others people.
@@brianmcgill1500 only flat on the bottom
The Porsche 959 was never mentioned in the same breath at the Countach. It was launched at a similar time to the Ferraro F40. The Lambo was of a different era, having been developed from the original 70's design P400.
I remember the P350 and later P400,front engine/rear drive conventional layout...the Countach owes more to the Miura
Countach seems to have the Same Basic lines as the Pantera, but with more air vents & that Butt-Ugly wing
You are correct, the Countach was released in 1974 and it was a head turner big time in 74. I can remember when the young 18 year old Boris Becker received delivery of a 959. Another head turner that was exceptional in the dirt, the car not Becker.
Thank you sooo much for this tour....my dream destination when things settle down. I do have one correction however.....Horacio Pagani only worked on the 25th Anniversary Countach.
Don, thank you! You are correct, Horacio worked on the 25th anniversary Countach in 1988.
I just wanna walk around this museum all day. 🤤
Great video ! Super knowledgeable
Glad you liked it
@@PetersenMuseum try less uh uhhm uh uhm uh uhhm next time it get's rather annoying.
MY ASS!!!
@@bongobob7079 bro he just showed you 200+ cars with the info he remembered himself, did you?
Can we all take a moment to acknowledge and thank this man for his car knowledge?
Can we also acknowledge he can't go a few seconds without saying uh uhhm uh uhm uh uhhm
He said the Lamborghini Countach had the engine in the rear. The Countach was a mid-engine car.
PUNDARE!!!
Best 2 hours of my life outside of Star Wars
yes, the best moments in life are experienced infront of a screen

On my bucket list to visit the Peterson in person. Great tour....fantastic steady camera and moderation. Thank you for being such humble custodians of these vehicles.
It’s amazing the knowledge this guy has of these vehicles. Great tour, thank u for a chance to see this place!
Me being able to identify maybe 40 percent of vehicles. He encyclopedia on every single one!
Amazing cars and a fantastic museum. I hope to go there sometime. BUT, I turned down the sound after 30 min.. and fast forwarded the video... because of this guys Ah's and Umm's. He drove me crazy with this. Maybe it's only me end my quirks, but if guided tours is what he does regularly... he needs to be made aware of this . The cars are flawless, and the so should the guide be also.
Man the Petersen's collection and on display cars always amazes me. Bucket-list item to visit in person one day!! I have literally been considering a vacation from Canada to LA when this Covid shit is finally over, and one of the huge factors in wanting to visit there is the Petersen and other local car culture!!
A couple of years ago, I found myself in L.A. visiting my brother. He treated me to a visit to Petersen's Museum during its Porsche exhibit. I didn't expect it, but just the experience of standing next to a real Gulf Porsche 917K literally made me cry- it was a spiritual moment in my life. I grew up in Hermosa Beach in the early '70s and lived around the corner from Vasek Polak's dealership. The last time I saw a 917 was as a 10 year old kid in his showroom half a century ago. Maybe someday, I may enjoy watching one go through the paces at Laguna Seca, but for now, I had the magical moment of standing in the presence of a true icon. Thank you.
And this exhibit commemorates one man..Just winning.
What an amazing place and fantastic tour, your knowledge man of the cars was awesome
Visited some years back. It's great how they circulate their amazing collection so that there's always something new to see. Hope the Corona plague levels out soon so it can be reopened. Very knowledgeable host.
Thank you! We hope it gets safe enough to open again soon!
Amazing collection. I would love to see it live. Thanks for the video!!!!
I'm amazed at this video, I'm enlightened, I was interested from the first second to the last, I didn't want it to finish to be honest. The presenter, his knowledge of all of those cars should be in the Guinness Book Of Records, and the camera man, super smooth, he should be in Hollywood. A total treat and for once, I'm happy to use that time in my life so something so enjoyable. Really excellent job. Oh and thank you to all the owners of those cars for allowing them to all be at this place at the same time.
Incredible, when time allows we’re coming over the visit. Love from Vint-tro 🇬🇧
23:00 - 930 RUF - true legend.
Best Petersen Tour
10:50 The real thing which started sports car era...performance and beauty.
i go there prob every 4-6 months, this collection is the best one yet!
I was there in 2011. Only time to as of now but I’ll definitely be back. Idk why I haven’t made it something I have to do every couple years but I am going to. I usually catch the beach & some games when I’m out there but now Vegas actually has pro teams so I don’t have to travel to see Games. Still have to for The REDS but anyhow, now I’ll have some other destinations in mind when head to the beach for a few days from now on. For some reason I treated The Peterson Automotive Museum like I’ve done it , but it’s always changing so there’s not an ever done it so that’s that. New exhibits always changing. I’ll have to get out there more frequently for sure.
I'm watching a second time of what will be many repeats. So much to absorb! The anecdotal facts, context, details ... I will be very excited when we can finally visit in person. It would be great to have a recording to listen to as you walk through.
Just amazing. So grateful this history is being preserved.
So much incredible human expression in here. Born in 1956 I have been so fortunate to have witnessed this thing that has been a part of our lives. And now we have places like this. And videos.
Petersen has been on my list of places to check out. I have been flowing many people such as Jay Leno and Doug DeMuro for years. There is such a wide range of cars and and the way the exhibits have been set up is truly world class. Thank you for putting out this video for us enthusiast giving these times. I hope we all get the opportunity to get out to see the museum in person one day soon.
Thanks so much... I’m in Australia and hope to come see this in person
This dude has more car history knowledge that I have of myself, what ever he is getting paid, its not enough. Also shoutout to the cameramen, dude is a absolute unit and the video came out awesome. Hope to visit one day
Thank you for the walk through as a person who is unlikely to ever visit the museum in person this is greatly appreciated. Again thank you.
Wow. Just wow. Thank you for this video. High quality content and presentation. Its a stunning record of automotive history. Too many of my favorite cars of all time in there to comment on any one or two of them. And the HD video lets us see just how perfectly prepared and presented these cars are. Quality all the way.
In the beginning of the tour he says it’s 90 minutes long ..:the word long can never be used when touring these master works!! I can watch a tour like this all day :) great Vid!!!!!
Michael! Amazing job. 2HR+ of non-stop automotive historical genius amigo 🙏🏼
Wow, thanks!
Love the Peterson museum for their love of cars and giving us gearheads our motor fix during covid.
This place makes me want to cry 😭 God bless all of the people who are involved
Thank you amazing history and beautiful collection. The 52 'Henry ford' Ferrari Barchetta is my favorite, very unique.
That Delahaye blue & purple V12 is undoubtedly my favorite in the collection. This classic shape has the ability to morph. Its flows with nature like an old Jag or Bugatti. There are amazing cars in this collection. I've watched this 10-15 times in anticipation of my in person visit.
This was an absolute joy to experience. I learned a lot and had fun in the process.
Guide did a jam-up job. Enjoyed the video.
even though I'm watching this online, my goal is to still visit and just to take it all in person even though I live across the country. There's such so many beautiful cars and I'm already in love just looking at these through my laptop
Film Cars sind Absolut Hammer......Vielen Dank für die Bemühungen
Its a shame that I only got to say my favorite 55 times. Extraordinary production. Kudos for the whole Video team.
Thank you for the awesome tour!
Greatest upload of 2020 in December... totally blown away and captivating.... #PyrateRulz
Greatest museum car tour on KZhead.
That orange and black Cad LaSalle roadster is to die for!
Thanks for doing this, i've always wanted to see the Petersen.
priceless
WOOOW, absolutely mind blowing collection.
I want to cry when I see all of theese beautiful cars just standing still, because so much rich people don't appreciate what they own so they give it to a museum or they stand in their personal garages. I personaly would drive the shit out of this masterpieces and enjoy with my soul.
All of these cars run and drive. And are being shared with folks who might otherwise ever see them.
Fantastic tour! Thank you. What an astonishing collection.
This was an awesome presentation. You know each car so well. Thank you 😊
A HUGE thank you,to anyone that made it possible. Greetings from Greece!
Had to go to the museum myself after seeing this video was such a treat
I cannot believe this doesn’t have millions of views. 😭 Mind blowing collection.
Agree unless the title does not have big name supercar channels like shmee people don't bother! Man they are missing out! This and Jay Leno are amazing!!
This vid was uploaded only 6 days ago..
THIS
Does anyone else know where they are going in the coming apocalypse 😂😂
Exactly!
Who in the world are the people who gave this video a thumbs down?😡 You're either more jealous than the rest of us, or you just hate cars. I could spend a month just walking around looking at all of these beautiful cars.
by the comments...all the people that are criticising him for wearing a mask?
Michael,u great,thanks for this amazing super car show and more how you able to give all history behind over thousand cars in the museum, wish you do more presentation for us in Europe.Thanks bro.
Wow was their today a lot of cars were missing from this video, but somewhere there and I have a more better appreciation for my visit to the museum. This guy is incredible.
Fantastic museum tour! I really hope to be able to travel again soon from Europe to visit your museum in person. Thank you 👏🏻
Fabulous tour. I loved it
as much as i would rather see this tour live. its totally worth watching more than once because of the amount of information shared. great video
Coming to California for a wedding, but I’m not leaving without visiting this beautiful museum!
I set the speed to 1.5 and it is a bit easier to get through FYI.
@Fresh Start maybe youtube it....
I set it to 5.0 and it's like sport mode/
@@edkramer5592 That's a good one. Lol
I think I read the comments late just finished the full vid
Thankyou
Looking at the early race cars makes me really want to build my own special. Just a one or two seater. Maybe rear-mid engine. Definitely manual transmission... Yeah, I really need to get some money saved up
This is the best collection I’ve ever seen.... And trust me, I saw a lot of good collection live
so insane and also nice to know that there is this massive collection of historical cars but also ACTUAL movie vehicles being preserved. Absolutely phenomenal.
Thank you, wonderful tour of History and Treasures,.... I was raised around WARSAW Indiana & was great to see a few AUBURN-Cord Deusenberg , and Studebaker Treaures,,,,,,,,,...
1 of thee best videos ever created. Not only on YT. Great job Gentlemen and Thank You both. You should now break this video up into a bunch of section clips for the views. You can get a ton more views by breaking this into pieces and just doing sections , like in an exhibition. Great stuff. Thanks again for your time & knowledge to go with the amazing vehicles.
Btw... you probably already have sectioned it if I really pay attention. I just wanted to recommend it just Incase. I know these owners are not hurting for any funds but I’m just thinking of it creating more funds for the museum itself by sectioning this video into 9-22min clips so more people view them and especially younger people whom really need to learn about the vehicles and America’s Great History with thee automobile.
lovely as if i traveled and visited the Museum
It’s always changing thee exhibits , so you can still look forward to going to visit it as well. 😏🤙✌️
wow what a museum!!!!!thanks for posting
Epic tour, thanks so much for doing what you do. It's tough to imagine how much a thing of the past that combustion engined vehicles are basically now....
uuuuuummmmmmm......yeah, last I checked they're still rolling off the assembly line in greater numbers then anything else.....LOL, but good lookin out.
No. ICE cars will always be around.
Another great video. What a fantastic museum. Hope to visit one day soon and check out my childhood hero, the Back to the Future Delorean ‘A’ car 👍👍👍
I hope so too!
Petersen Automotive Museum Thanks! Best wishes from the UK 🙏
ZIGENARPALLE!!!
James has great taste in cars they are all pieces of beautiful art
Great production. Love the unedited runs with the gimbal (Osmo?) "You can have it any color you want, as long as it is black" Henry Ford Never knew an empty museum could be such a 'virus' plagued place. Weird
He may well be just protecting the camera guy and we don’t know how many of the production crew could be standing behind the camera.
@@brandonjones779 I can tell you it was one other guy definitively. Check the shadows. IF you aren't sick why do you need to wear a mask. The 'camera' guy was NEVER close than 6' and, since square nutz was wearing a 'mask', why the fcuk would that matter?
