The OP missing interesting video stated that Chrysler was the first to experiment with Turbine automotive engine power starting in the mid 50's? Not sure how accurate that is, but the video also had a number of different years of Mopar's as the technology evolved culminating in the 55? turbine engine cars above later crushed The video alluded to there were forces behind the scenes that killed the turbine engine because of its potential success with fuel mileage, simplicity, reliability, etc.

My wife and her siblings in the Chrysler Turbine car at the Chrysler Pavilion at the New York world's fair in 1965.

Did that tire get relocated to I-75, as it comes into Detroit from the south? I seem to remember something like that there.

Thanks for posting, both of those are great videos, and far more extensive/informative than the short original missing clip in opening post.
That 62 Dart and Plymouth I just noticed, they have the larger single headlight setup? Interesting.

I think I heard that Leno's actually still runs, the only one. He has a turbine motorcycle too. I hope he stays off it!

I agree, he probably would just drive right down the middle of the road.
