This video hit home. Doc sounded like my grandpa irl and had a very similar personality to him and as a result I really felt connected to his character as a kid and now as a young adult. As a 23 year old this still hits the same soft spot in my spirit as it did when I was 6 in 2006. This video is beautiful, it provides a very large amount of information on the guy, and made me feel like I was a little kid again. Very beautifully done. I hope for Halloween pixar brings the ghost of doc back to possess another dead hornet in a scrapyard to race all of his other phantom buddies at the abandoned moonshine trails that started it all. Thanks for this video Ned.

Something interesting about nascar stock cars of the 1950's through the 1966 is that the only real rule limiting them on engine specifications was what was in the catalog and yes that includes the police equipment which alot of teams would use to get more power and reliability out of their motors so doc 175 instead of the OEM 145 makes sense

My theory on his Doc's death: I'm leaning towards old age and engine failure. Doc has lived 55 years and basically a living relic of racing. With his accident that crushed him and his career, the past may have caught up with him even though he was rebuilt and he tried improving himself to get back in tip top shape. Then the engine failure theory. An engine block is pretty much considered as the heart of every automobile, gas/diesel is their food, oil is their vitamins, and water for keeping temperature. With Rod Redline stating "I can replace an engine block" means more like a heart transplant. Rod is a newer model vehicle compared to Doc so he can get newer parts that is compatible with his model. On Doc's case, parts for his entire engine block would've been a lot harder to find, let alone replacing the entire engine block.

@vladvulcan much like in real life, model Ts (Lizzy) are still alive and kicking despite the age. There have been over 15 million Model Ts built, so parts are easier to come by. Unfortunately for IRL Hudsons, there were not a lot of units built, so parts will be a lot more difficult to find. Because the Hudson Hornet is a rare car, the parts are just not there anymore, which can also explain why lore Doc died in Cars 3, but Lizzy is still there. The real reason Doc died was obviously because Paul Newman died in 08. As far as keeping old cars alive, the longer they last, the harder it is to keep them going.

There was a deleted scene in Cars 3 where sterling removed McQueen's license on the number 95 and gave it to Cruz after his number stats started coming back, because the suit that McQueen was wearing had a stat tracker, and Cruz was wearing the same. In that same deleted scene, we see that Smokey ang Tex actually knew each other for a while. In that scene McQueen was able to race under the sponsor Dinoco and using Hudson's Paint job (Actually the same one used in the final scene in cars 3) with a number 51 on McQueen's number. Unknown if he won the race though as thats where the cutscene ended

As well as taking it for a lap at Irwindale when we got it up and going after sitting for 24 years. Just an all around nice man. The other being, my wife and I bought a house that overlopks Watkins Glenn racetrack, 5 years ago. We sit on our back porch, listen to the races, and watch them from there, with our field glasses.

So, he passed away in '09. Just a year after Paul Newman ( the voice actor of Doc) passed away. Fun fact: he did a movie back in the 50s called "Hud".
Yes
Bro disappeared for months but came back from the grave with another banger
I didn't get when did doc Hudson come back like he didn't appear in cars 2 not in cars 3 neither in cars on the road so what you talking about?
@@RDX_Bapehe’s talking about the person who made the video
@@bigbodybenz927 oh okk
I always wondered how the story would've went if Doc was still around.
You're suggesting that if Paul Newman didn't pass away back in '08, the Cars movies would be very different, story wise?
@@Ninjanomics2K1YT Possibly. There's no way to know.
@@bobbyscibadee Sadly, we'll never know.
@@Ninjanomics2K1YTfr true
I feel that he would've mentored McQueen around the events of Cars 2, despite Mater's antics with being a secret agent. One or two years later, he would pass away sparking the events of Cars 3 in 2017
I love how much lore the Cars franchise has
Honestly same. I love these movies so much
Not even Toy Story has this much lore And Toy Story was Pixar's first movie,and there's 4 movies of it and a fifth one confirmed
RIP Doc youve always taught me there's more to racing than just winning. Ive always lived my life in the fast lane but you helped me to slow down live life and inspire others . You maybe a fictional character but you inspired me i definitely owe it all to you 1951-2009
Same and the 1951 Hudson was a pretty badass car, I saw some at a car show
We will honor his name.
Doc is the reason why the Hudson Hornet is my fav classic car
Fun fact: When Hudson died in 2009,The whole town of cars fell into sadness. A true legend and he will be never forgetten❤❤
When the world need him the most, he came back.
Ok this a really overused word.
@@S.11Ayers730 don’t know what to say :P
Nice Avatar Reference

What people have overlooked is that the number 51 was McQueens idea, since he wants Hudsons number to be carried on through new generation. It's so sad that Hudsons Voice Actor passed away, and it's so sad for me, because to me, he's like my grandpa when he said the line
Doc Hudson was almost like a secondary dad figure to Lighting McQueen, always by his side and leading him to success, it's so sad to know that he had passed away years ago 😢
Brought a tear to my eye, seeing McQueen coming full circle into a mentor, taking docs place
R.I.P Doc Hudson and Junior Moon you two will never be forgotten
"Junior Moon" is basically Junior Johnson in the Cars universe, right? I mean, it's obvious.
@@Ninjanomics2K1YT, he's voiced by Junior
Something I wish they did was have Lightning do Hudson's flip in the first movie, so that way when Cruz did it it could flash from her to McQueen to Doc and then back to McQueen and finally her, showing Lightning's arc from student to teacher
True OGs know this was one of his first videos, it was shorter and was narrated by the guy who started the channel. He would also upload videos with the die casts as well. I miss the old days of the channel
Yes! Im so glad I’m not the only one!
Who narrates this video
True OGs know Ned hired a narrator to redo all the old videos. Ned has the most annoying voice hiring a narrator was his best decision.
@@user-ys2jd5xs4l I disagree with you on that. I didn’t mind his his voice and tbh I miss it
Something interesting about nascar stock cars of the 1950's through the 1966 is that the only real rule limiting them on engine specifications was what was in the catalog and yes that includes the police equipment which alot of teams would use to get more power and reliability out of their motors so doc 175 instead of the OEM 145 makes sense
And it was also on off road tracks, The 1951 Hudson was an awesome car for it's time
My theory on his Doc's death: I'm leaning towards old age and engine failure. Doc has lived 55 years and basically a living relic of racing. With his accident that crushed him and his career, the past may have caught up with him even though he was rebuilt and he tried improving himself to get back in tip top shape. Then the engine failure theory. An engine block is pretty much considered as the heart of every automobile, gas/diesel is their food, oil is their vitamins, and water for keeping temperature. With Rod Redline stating "I can replace an engine block" means more like a heart transplant. Rod is a newer model vehicle compared to Doc so he can get newer parts that is compatible with his model. On Doc's case, parts for his entire engine block would've been a lot harder to find, let alone replacing the entire engine block.
RIP Paul Newman❤
Disagree. Many old cars are not only resurrected but have an alternate power plant. What almost always condemns old cars is rust/chassis problems.
How then Lizzy is alive still? she's much older
@vladvulcan much like in real life, model Ts (Lizzy) are still alive and kicking despite the age. There have been over 15 million Model Ts built, so parts are easier to come by. Unfortunately for IRL Hudsons, there were not a lot of units built, so parts will be a lot more difficult to find. Because the Hudson Hornet is a rare car, the parts are just not there anymore, which can also explain why lore Doc died in Cars 3, but Lizzy is still there. The real reason Doc died was obviously because Paul Newman died in 08. As far as keeping old cars alive, the longer they last, the harder it is to keep them going.
Like in real Sports: After-Symptoms of his Crash - you could compare that with Nikki Laudas Crash where He got burned
Doc a true legend that will never be forgot, no death is sadder than one that happens offscreen and all you see is the sadness in the characters eyes
There was a deleted scene in Cars 3 where sterling removed McQueen's license on the number 95 and gave it to Cruz after his number stats started coming back, because the suit that McQueen was wearing had a stat tracker, and Cruz was wearing the same. In that same deleted scene, we see that Smokey ang Tex actually knew each other for a while. In that scene McQueen was able to race under the sponsor Dinoco and using Hudson's Paint job (Actually the same one used in the final scene in cars 3) with a number 51 on McQueen's number. Unknown if he won the race though as thats where the cutscene ended
Docs cool and calm attitude reminds me of some other legends who raced & won the champion in 2007 in Ferrari, then retiring in a Alfa Romeo end of 2021
The iceman
Bwoah

Doc was really the best racer out there, would've love to see more from Doc. Glad to see a new upload Ned Wheeler hope to see more. Keep it up 👍
A legend has returned
Doc Hudson is my favorite! I love the way he’s built and the way he’s blue
This car is more educated than me.
Welcome Back Ned Wheeler
He’s back he’s finally back
We'll never forget you Paul Newman a great friend to all and everyone of pixar
In Cars 3 when Mcqueen crashed he understand how Doc felt when he wrecked out in 1954.
Rest in power Doc Hudson Fabulous Hudson Hornet your legendary victory and coaching and the Piston-Cup lives on all as well celebrating 75 years of NASCAR🇺🇸🏆🏆🏆🌹🏵🏎
I'll miss Doc Hudson for a long time, remembering this racing days.
Wow, I didn't know that the Cars franchise has deep lore. Didn't know that Doc Hudson is loved by many.
Yes!!! Ned Wheeler is Back
Wow this was so factual and helpful!!! Welcome back ned wheeler!!!! (PLEASE LET MY FAMILY GO, IVE GIVEN YOU EVERYHTING I HAVE. IM ON MY HANDS AND KNEES)
LOL WTF
I thought this channel was dead after a slow down of Cars content being produced and released, but nope, it was just taking it's time in creating masterpieces, and also, just in time to upload during my Cars Renaissance, welcome back
There’s so much I learned about Doc that I enjoyed. Bro sometimes I imagine Doc and Skipper standing on a beach in the morning and like chatting about their students or their coaching skills
forgot ned existed before this because it's been 7 months. welcome back!

Welcome back Ned 🙂
The 1951 Hudson Hornet was one of the most powerful cars of it's time, It was made during the Korean War which didn't impact auto production like WW2 did a few years prior
Now this is a masterpiece 👏 I truly love Hudson and he won't be missed

you know, i wonder how Dale Earnhardt's carreer was in the cars cannon, since JR is there we know he existed, i wonder how much of it was affected by the presence of the King in the same track, in the same time
He probably died in the Cars universe just like he did in real life. Then again, cars can't suffer from basilar skull fractures, right?
@@Ninjanomics2K1YT They probably can, but it would take one hell of a hard hit for their skull to be fractured, considering their skins are literally made of metal
@@jamiegioca9448 So, since cars in the Cars universe can't just die from harsh head-on contact with the wall, then where's Dale in the Cars universe?
@@Ninjanomics2K1YT I never said that, I said that it's much, MUCH harder
@@jamiegioca9448 Oh okay.
BRO it's a FICTIONAL CAR why am I about to cry
Technically, Doc was based off of a Hudson that did race back in NASCAR's early years. Heck, Doc's scheme is almost the exact same scheme that the Hudson in real life had.
@CM32401 very true, still about to cry over cars, CARS
@@SleepyStaples Yeah, it's a amazing that a movie that doesn't have humans in it can be so emotional.
Doc was a fictional car, yet his character was based off of real life history of the Hudson Hornet car model, and a famous nascar driver who drove it back in the early 1950's, winning nascar records that actually do still stand to this day.
Ned returns to the 'Cars' history!
Not even an hour ago I was watching this series, so it is nice to have another one to watch. (Welcome back ned!)
Got a chuckle out of this, dor two reasons. One being I used to see Paul quite often, living down the ateeet from pne of his relatives. He'd come visit them, and walk over to my shop to check out the builds and restorations we had going. Even signed the glovebox of our 52 Hornet. As well as taking it for a lap at Irwindale when we got it up and going after sitting for 24 years. Just an all around nice man. The other being, my wife and I bought a house that overlopks Watkins Glenn racetrack, 5 years ago. We sit on our back porch, listen to the races, and watch them from there, with our field glasses. Miss you, old friend. See you at the big track again, in a little while.
I want to see a Radiator Springs/Doc spin-off so much. I absolutely love cars of the 30-80-s. Even chronicles from the Cars 3 look unbelievably awesome
R.I.P the racing legend doc was my favorite car then any one else doc will not be forgotten and will be a legend in all our hearts 😭 docs words : turn right to go left/you had a lot of stuff kid
We’ve missed you
18:38 Maybe, but probably only if you can replace it fast enough! Someone else said that the parts that needed to be replaced were no longer available to Doc since they went out of production
Such a emotional journey of doc thanks for publishing
*Fabulous* video Ned! I've found Doc's origin story always fascinating, especially after Cars 3 came out. I would love to see Pixar do a spin-off/prequel movie of Doc's racing and medical career before McQueen showed up in Radiator Springs.
But that means that someone had to replace Paul Newman for voice acting God rest his good soul
@@FilipinoFurry True
legends never die... they'll live forever in our memories ^^
Welcome back ned wheeler! I’m glad to see that your making videos again. 😁👍
Doc Hudson is such a lovable character. He truly has had quite the journey from racing champion to doctor to McQueen's Mentor. He is the kind of wise character you would look up to and is one we can all agree is one we can all learn a lot from. Amazing work, Ned Wheeler! I'm looking forward to what you do next.
they need to make doc movie, i know its dificult but they have to
100%. It could work because if it was a younger Doc, they could find a younger voice actor.
Bro got wound up in Radiator Springs for 7 months. 💀
"You got a lot of stuff kid".
Of course the legend himself
"Hey lightning you might want to take notes on this one".
You are back!
What a true drift racer legend Paul Newman used to drive his Datsun 280ZX
Finally, a video about Doc Hudson. Good job out there. 😊

Babe wake up, Ned Wheeler finally woke up
Only real fans know that this is a remake to the original video before Ai took over.
finally a new video, love your content
Doc’s History will always be amazing and also glad to see you uploading again
I'm glad you're back to the videos, I just missed your content
you are finally back YAY!!!!
Hudson coached McQueen very well
Seeing this video just makes me appreciate Cars 3 even more
Yay!! New Ned Wheeler content! Finally!
4:14 I could see an E8 racing with Doc.
The goat IS back🎉
Smokey mentioned McQueen is the important part of Hudson's life since the tie breaker at Los Angeles International Speedway
Doc Hudson is a great character and A amazing racer and his Actor to rip
Finally! I missed your videos, man
Thanks for this video, it's really fascinating and gripping! 🔥
Welcome back Ned Wheeler!
Excellent video, I thoroughly enjoyed it. 👍🏻
Thank you for bringing back my child hood. Cuz i'am a cars fan and now i'm still a fan!
It's worth noting that the "real" Watkins Glen Int'l Raceway didn't open until 1956 to replace the track run entirely on public roads. Fun video all the same.
It's reupload from old clip on this channel but it is extended and contains so many facts! Great effort! I wonder what are the sources of comicbook and these pictures when Hudson travels to Radiator Springs. If we ever get a movie about Doc Hudson I would be so happy! Probably it won't happen because of Paul Newman's death but even with a new voiceactor it would be amazing.
Pixar should either get my man Corey Burton to voice him or not bother
Good work for you
What a magnificent presentation video about Doc Hudson's story!
I’m happy you’re back.
Doc Hudson is and will always be the greatest king ever
So Doc Hudson was the Sonic The Hedgehog of the Piston Cup before Sonic existed.
This is an amazing work... what a character, thank you so much! As Doc would say "You got a lot of stuff, kid"♡
R.I.P. Doc Hudson...😔
One engine failure could be possible, especially if it was a bad enough one. Though, with Doc being Doc, I doubt it would be that. He wouldn’t push himself to mechanical failure unless it was something like an oil line bursting and causing a sudden oil pressure loss and possibly a fire.
I so want a show or movie about the 1950s in Cars, Doc of course the focus.
amazing, thank you
