Abraham Lincoln Hearse - Tallahassee Automobile Museum

0:10 welcome everyone Adam the whoo here

0:10 coming to you from the Tallahassee

0:12 Automobile Museum today we're gonna have

0:15 a lot of fun and that is no bull

0:20 join me shall you as I make my way from

0:24 the front sign and driveway towards the

0:27 very large building and entrance I'm

0:30 noticing this Star Wars relic a fully

0:33 armed and non operational TIE fighter

0:38 just see the gun there sitting out in

0:41 the elements all-weather worn this

0:43 platform has been built a makeshift

0:46 stage just to heighten the experience to

0:49 get a better view of Uncle Sam they

0:52 can't get too close to him he's got he's

0:54 got a fence around his feet in my former

0:56 travels I have passed this property a

0:58 few times either been closed or I've

1:00 been in too much of a hurry to stop I

1:02 have however stood in this courtyard but

1:05 I've never been indoors today I'm gonna

1:08 change that whoa there's a gator a 1930

1:13 rat-rod and it's only about waist-high

1:17 on me so right here is my belt be a

1:22 tight squeeze getting inside there but

1:25 how cool would have a cruise around on

1:26 that bad boy this 1975 Cadillac Coupe

1:30 DeVille has been named the Elvis mobile

1:34 however it was not owned by the king as

1:39 stated on that pamphlet but check out

1:42 the paraphernalia in here there's even a

1:44 skull right there between the seats it's

1:47 not just automobiles in here this gun

1:50 belonged to the one and only Buffalo

1:53 Bill right there he held that thing this

1:56 case is full of no no pun intended

2:00 full of case-knives for sale in that

2:02 case but I'm noticing one item that's

2:06 not for purchase is this nasa bowie

2:09 knife obviously getting into the heart

2:12 of the museum now old sports cars on

2:15 either side of me Burt Reynolds down

2:18 there in that frame photo

2:20 and this is the car that he made famous

2:22 and Smokey and the Bandit it's not the

2:24 one used in the film it's a couple years

2:26 older in fact it's a 1979 stated here

2:30 there are only ten miles on the car it's

2:33 only been driven ten miles

2:37 Powell Crosley used to make radios like

2:39 this one and refrigerators years later

2:42 he decided to try his hand at the super

2:46 convertible this one is a 1950 model and

2:51 it states down there that he went on to

2:53 own the Cincinnati Reds he bought them

2:57 he bought the Reds in 1948 there were

3:00 only fifty one of these Tucker's created

3:03 due to financial reasons and this is

3:06 number five of the forty-seven that

3:09 still exist it was also used in a movie

3:13 the 1988 Francis Ford Coppola film

3:18 Tucker the man and his dream that's a

3:21 movie car right there

3:22 speaking of movie Cars this needs no

3:25 introduction of course from Back to the

3:27 Future the DeLorean but they were made

3:30 before the movie came out this one 1983

3:34 Back to the Future didn't arrive in

3:37 theaters till 1985 of course now when

3:40 you see that you think of Doc Brown and

3:42 Marty and not John DeLorean funny how

3:45 things work out just noticed all the way

3:47 on the opposite side of the building is

3:50 something Back to the Future assets like

3:53 a banner there it's not by the car it's

3:56 just hiding over in the corner

3:58 before this 1956 Chevrolet Bel Air

4:02 gets running and needs its oil change

4:04 and that's what this lady is down there

4:06 doing doing a little maintenance work

4:07 she has her bags packed

4:09 and once this thing gets cranked up

4:11 she's going on a road trip as I've

4:13 stated before I do not know a lot about

4:15 classic cars I have learned a little bit

4:18 over different places that I have been

4:20 over the years but most of the

4:22 information I will be giving in this

4:24 video is written and I am reading off of

4:27 these little information placards

4:30 located in front of each car not

4:33 only was this car the first American one

4:35 that was made of a fiberglass body take

4:38 a look at the door it's the first that

4:41 have the door slide into the part of the

4:44 car itself into the fender side it's the

4:48 first one to do that the 1954 Keyser

4:52 Darin roadster have you ever seen a

4:54 horse made out of completely automotive

4:58 parts that's what this guy is

5:02 constructed of from his head to his neck

5:05 to his torso and legs all car parts

5:10 welded together mannequin version of

5:12 Marilyn Monroe I'm guessing I think

5:16 that's supposed to be Marilyn Monroe is

5:18 standing in front of this Cadillac

5:20 Eldorado convertible which Dwight D

5:24 Eisenhower rode in a similar car in his

5:27 inauguration parade 18 cents a gallon is

5:30 the price posted on that gas pump and

5:32 the company that made this was called a

5:34 char meter

5:35 they made gas pumps and clocks that's

5:37 why both are featured in the same item

5:41 they stopped making these in 1936 this

5:43 is a relic someone's about to go on a

5:45 vacation you bring in this along you got

5:48 to pick it up and stick it back in the

5:50 back plenty of room back there yeah

5:52 there's plenty you can bring that

5:53 there's there's plenty of room going to

5:55 the grocery stores how we get our milk

5:57 these days but back in the 50s you had

5:59 to have this milk truck deliver it and

6:02 this 1909 hub mobile they call it

6:07 strongly resembles a fire truck but I

6:10 don't think there's any hoses her items

6:13 have put out fires on there but it looks

6:14 just like a fire truck quite a few Model

6:17 T starting with a 1912 and a 1916 and a

6:22 1914 down on the floor a century old

6:25 tire hasn't decomposed still holding

6:29 strong and a panda bear playing a guitar

6:34 he can't believe his eyes he's got his

6:36 glasses tilted down to get a better view

6:39 of 1894 that's right 1894

6:45 yay hoping I pronounced that correctly

6:47 one of the oldest surviving fully

6:49 manufactured American pre-production

6:53 vehicles

6:55 Wow some serious history right there I

6:59 really like this place not only because

7:01 they have all this which I totally

7:03 expected but they have random items like

7:07 this jukebox in 1947 Mills jukebox as

7:12 well as some vintage record players

7:16 wonder if the needles still work look at

7:19 the name on this one rock Ola nice

7:25 what should we listen to moon mulligan

7:28 or Frank Sinatra among my souvenirs

7:32 that's a good one and now for the item

7:35 that drew me and the main reason the

7:38 focal point of why I pulled off the road

7:41 I read online that they had something

7:42 very fascinating and honestly unexpected

7:46 to find in a place like this a little

7:49 piece of history that is right there the

7:52 1860 horse-drawn hearse the carry

7:56 President Abraham Lincoln to Springfield

8:00 Illinois to his final resting place

8:04 amazing to even fathom or comprehend

8:07 that he would have lain right there

8:12 right behind that piece of glass the

8:15 coffin of the 16th President of the

8:19 United States starting in Washington DC

8:22 made its way up to Harrisburg

8:24 Philadelphia New York City Albany

8:26 Buffalo Cleveland Columbus Indianapolis

8:29 Michigan City Chicago and then to

8:31 Springfield and it wasn't all by the

8:34 same vehicle states here train funeral

8:38 car ferry and a number of horses ending

8:41 with the final one that you see in front

8:45 of me that took him to his tomb pretty

8:48 much the closest I or you or anyone for

8:51 that matter will get to Abraham Lincoln

8:54 is in the spot

8:57 I am now standing with my camera against

9:00 the glass looking in looking inside wow

9:06 that's incredible can be seen distinctly

9:09 in this artistic rendition right there

9:13 now the tomb to the left is where he was

9:16 originally buried but his body was

9:20 attempted to be stolen on many occasions

9:23 so they moved it to the top built a huge

9:27 monument and now he's buried under

9:30 layers and layers and feet and feet of

9:33 concrete he's no longer there at the

9:36 bottom of the hill he's up there

9:38 replicas of the gun used in the

9:40 assassination can be found right down

9:43 there and this wanted poster $50,000

9:49 reward if he had any information even

9:52 though a number of horses would have

9:54 pulled this from the front Lincoln's own

9:57 personal horse that he named old Bob

10:01 walked behind with a mourning blanket

10:05 over his back paying tribute to his good

10:10 friend that was placed right in there

10:13 not an item I would have expected to see

10:16 in the panhandle of Florida completely

10:19 separated from a lot of other Lincoln

10:21 artifacts but nonetheless it sits here

10:26 in this museum for all to see as are a

10:30 wide variety of classic Steinway pianos

10:36 like a half a dozen of them but this

10:39 one's missing

10:47 where'd that one go a meteorites a

10:47 dinosaur egg a brain weight a brain a

10:53 brain coral random hands or not that's

10:59 right come on in this section there are

11:02 a lot of insignias and badges from

11:06 police officers but down here

11:10 it states this gun was owned by Wyatt

11:13 Earp

11:14 that's his revolver right there all

11:16 these items make up a vampire killing

11:19 kit if you find that unbelievable just

11:23 read this it's documented right there in

11:26 those letters that's for killing

11:29 vampires that was just the first level

11:31 I'm now heading up this ramp to get to

11:33 the second floor this place is big this

11:36 might be more random than the bottom

11:38 floor tractors golfing paraphernalia

11:42 some wooden bulls stampeding and cash

11:48 registers if your forte are adding

11:52 machines you've come to the right place

11:54 there are a lot of adding machines is

11:59 this a funhouse mirror it is whoa Wow

12:10 never-ending amount of items this place

12:14 is a treasure trove all these radios

12:18 even a section dedicated to motorcycles

12:22 made to look like a locomotive it's

12:24 actually a limousine that was used for

12:26 promotional reasons by Publix pictures

12:32 also part of Paramount only 15 of these

12:36 were made and five still exist to this

12:39 day see the Paramount Pictures emblem

12:41 and dancing girls would stand on the

12:44 fenders and there in the back and stroll

12:47 through Hollywood promoting the new

12:50 films no one else is up here I'm the

12:52 only one on the top floor which is a

13:47 a sign that's how much he does not like

13:51 being hugged plenty of products and

13:53 gizmos you have to wonder what some of

13:57 this stuff does this replica of the

14:00 African Queen has an interesting

14:03 nickname which can be seen posted around

14:06 the backside Puff the Magic Dragon

14:10 accept of living by the sea it could

14:14 live on the sea because it's a boat

14:17 that's not the only seafaring vessel

14:23 little bit bigger but that one resembles

14:25 a canoe but has much more comfortable

14:29 seating whoa that's a lot of motors at
