That's the "tag" of an entire song, BTW; the words "Along the Chevron Way" were set to that "toot", as I'm sure you can imagine.. The whole song was written for a commercial from '71 or '72 (on film, not animated, played very straight) that I can't find for the life of me.
Betcha never knew this: that "Along the Chevron Way" ditty shares the cadence (minus the first note) of "We're the Bloodhound Gang!" (I know that's not till later, but still...)
Anthony, do you remember a Chevron TV ad jingle from this era, maybe the 1960s? It featured a hula theme and the song went: 🎶“Come to the Chevron Island, South of the Standard sign…”🎶
I like the toot at the end of some of the commercials. That made me very happy!

I miss the Chevron stations in Pennsylvania, especially the one on Limekiln Rd. at Oley Turnpike Rd.

These are obviously the work of Bob Kurtz

Here’s one ad from that Chevron Island series, though without the jingle:

I wouldn't be surprised if the Mystery Machine ever pulled in _here_ en route to a mystery or the malt shop.
The first commercial was stupid.
