What's the best, worst, and scariest part about driving a car from the early 1900s? We lived to tell you the tale. Joining us is Donald W. Osborne (@osbornedonald), a man who knows everything cars, is back! Donald knows cars. Period. When you're the CEO of the Audrain Automobile Museum and the reason the amazing Audrain Newport Concours d' Elegance & Motorweek exists, you need to know your stuff.
Topics include: our "interesting" drive in a 1902 Packard in the inaugural Veterans Run (a road rally for cars between 1901 and 1909); the massive traffic jam we caused; how cars evolved; why early steering was for boats; his favorite design era; should Deusenberg return; what Bugatti got right; dream cars; missed opportunities; and heroes he wished he hadn't met.
