Car Culture in 1930s-40s America [COLORIZED]

Groovy

Ver essa nostalgia nos dias de hoje, nos remete a um tempo glorioso e por demais charmoso. Não é à toa que hoje o norte-americano idolatra os velhos e bons automóveis de um tempo quase milagroso. É uma pena que o brasileiro não tem muito desse saudosismo que faz da história a propulsão da criatividade. E olha que tivemos carros lindíssimos e até bons diante da pobreza tecnológica da época.

O primeiro automóvel comprado pelo meu pai foi uma barata Ford Tudor 2 portas, anos 1940, isso em junho de 1965. Para encurtar a história, a inocência dele o levou a comprar esse carro que havia sido roubado em Cachoeira do Sul, RS. Todavia, serviu para o sítio e a chácara. Baita negociante o homem!

Love that these photos are colorized. Makes it more engaging

everybody looks well groomed and innshape

I am surprised by the number of above the knee skirts.

Nostalgic!!!🙂

So nice to see slim people. No rubbish food in those days.

When men were men and women weren’t..

I feel quite emotional watching these videos . At 84 I remember when the world looked like that. I long to go back . They really were better times ... Trust me because I was there !

At 2.17 you show an Australian F.X Holden from the late 40s or early 50s...

No obesity

Give the model of the cars

I must say we are the only generation since the invention of camera we are able to actually see how people used to look like.❤🎉 Absolutely amazing 😍

A world without cellphones 😮

Women dressed like women. Men dressed like men. Not a tattoo in sight. Cars made of metal, not cheap plastic. When time travel becomes a reality, I know where I'm going. 🙂

Got real boring in a hurry.

Un mundo sin obesos … mujeres guapas, hombres viriles …. Sin contaminación…. Sin Bulla ….

Good times, gone forever. Thanks for the memories.

It's interesting to see some of the cars with damaged parts. Nowadays we only see these types of cars in fully restored perfect condition at car shows.

In those days women mostly wore knee length skirts or frocks.

Great cars. And. People. Thanks

Wonderful!

I wish they had included the make, model and year of the car in each picture

I restore these cars and also use them in movies as a background actor. Love this era.

Family pictures with unnamed cars in the background.

Can’t help but notice the lack of logos on the clothing. Everything today has a badge on it. Thanks, designer jeans!

Great video! Where can i get the music?

Great videos! 👍

Nearly everyone drove their cars on bald tires.

I wish you would identify the cars…great video

Gracias por esta maravilla. Unas imágenes grandiosas, ojalá pudiera volver a esa época y conducir esos magníficos coches y conocer a esas chicas tan guapas.
La vida era maravillosa.

自動車の色が絶妙で素晴らしい👍

Not one overweight person anywhere 😒

There are no one wearing pajamas outside and no black leotards pants everyone have clothes on wow!! Amazing❤

ти предурок-хочеш переглядІв

😅😮I'm pretty sure that second car was a Hudson

BS

The colorization is superb looks like original color photos!

Vehicles were so large and heavy getting less than 10MPG, that was not sustainable for very long!

Way before my time, but love the gals.Was born in 53. One thing I don't miss from 50s60s70s was the smoking. I always hated being around it.

Good video. God bless our European brothers and sisters 🙏😇👌

Not many fat people.
