It worked on my big sister. She was a Farrah, Donna Mills blonde fembot. She bought a 77 Cougar two tone (white with red rockers). Stunning car, great interior. She drove like the ubiquitous spy girl of the era. Speedometer numbers stopped at 85, but the needle wound around anyway (I'm guessing 100 to 110 on back roads). It got flooded the next year and she traded it on for a Trans Am Bandit special without the screaming chicken decal. My little brother (16) totalled it.
Bob Hope: "You know all my life I've been looking for a real beauty that can stay quiet." LMAO!! And no law suits, boycotts or protests. People could take a joke then. Dinah Shore: More musical talent in one Chevrolet jingle than all of today's Grammy Award "winners." Amazingly none of these car ads ever use the word "SAFETY" as a selling point, and there's not a seatbelt in sight.
It was an era of creativity, imagination, individuality, diversity, and choices. Now all the new houses look alike and all the new cars look more or less alike. Very few color choices. Outrageous prices. Artistically, in the last 30 to 40 years, we have been living in the dark ages.
That Nova at 22:33.........those cars could be made to give a fantastic ride and handling with two simple changes. (1) a set of steel belted radial tires (2) Buy and install a "rear anti-sway bar" for the rear end of the car. THE RESULTS are just AMAZING...I did this on my 1965 Chevy Nova II wagon.
Jesus, Fred. What a great compilation . It just make us yearn for those days all over again; and for saving the best for the end, you did great on this one, pal. Thank you, Fred.
I saved that for last because seasoned RUclipsrs have probably seen it multiple times. But you're right, stendec, it IS the best, and no compilation of this type would be complete without it.
@@stendec-dd3he We do keep them in our hearts, don't we? We keep them like a special gift, wrapped in lavender tissue paper, that we can take out and look at from time to time, thanks to Fred.❤
Thanks so much Fred, for the classic car show. Those same cars are worth far more now, than what they sold for brand new from yesteryear. In vintage condition today, many can pay for a new house. It was great to see the old stars. Man, William Shatner was ubiquitous then and still is today. He HAS lived long and prospered.
You're way overgeneralizing. Sure, a mint condition Shelby Cobra from back then is worth a fortune, but a common variety Impala or Falcon or Corvair? No way.
Being a Chicagoan in Florida, I do recall the ad referred to by Frank Sinatra, it was for Peter Epsteen Pontiac in Skokie IL, it was come drive with me in a Peter Epsteen Pontiac!! Talk about a memory!!
What a wonderful line up of Cars and Stars. The commercials were more entertaining to me back then, with big production values and big stars! Oh, to be back there again! Thank you Fred, very much!

hi fred, another great video with all these super car commercials from the past! really fun to see all these celebrities from back in the day and of course the great cars from the past. thanks for sharing this entertaining and enjoyable video, always a pleasure! rob
I've never really been a "car girl", ( Does it have a radio, CD player, heat and AC? ) But I sure enjoy these old commercials, Fred. Loved seeing Glen Campbell and all the other talented and beautiful people. Thank you for the sweet trip back...❤
@@FredFlix I know exactly what you mean. I find myself noticing and appreciating the cars of our youth. You just don't see many anymore, unless there is a car show in town. Parking lots just seem full of really big, square, "things" that don't look like cars!
Love these ads, Fred...and those cars! The Peanuts spots for the '61 Falcon were a real surprise to me. I've long believed that the "Charlie Brown Christmas" special was the first animated version of Schultz's characters. Little did I know...
"And the beat goes on on on on..." At 34:25 the first car I remember: my dad's green Chevrolet. Jeez, I was very little but how I loved that tune by Dinah. Thanks for the memory. :)
Paul Very cool! Since Peanuts helped sell the Ford Falcon, and since the success of the Falcon paved the way for the creation of the Mustang, I wonder if it is therefor accurate to say the Charles Schultz helped launch Ford's enduring pony car. Food for thought...
The Peanuts Falcon adverts were very cute. I liked Chevrolet's use of popular music. But I coveted Plymouth's Satellite, Roadrunner and GTX most in these adverts.
Dinah Shore was the BEST ambassador for GM and especially the Chevrolet division of anyone who was ever their spokesperson. "See the USA in your Chevrolet" is a true icon of Americana during the 1950's thru the 1960's! And, she would also be the best ambassador for selling a "Time Machine" that would teleport us (me) back to that era of America. If I could go back then I'm sure that I'd make it a one way trip! I so love that time period in Our Wonderful Country!
34:30 In 2019 I took a six week cross country road trip in a rented Cruze. I started singing this at the top of my lungs when I started, even doing the hand motions. And I'm not a Chevy man. :)
Fred: Thank you for transporting me back to normal earth USA for the past 36:03 minutes, too bad I have to return back to "wild and wooly" earth USA 2019!!
Who else jumped when an adult responded to Charlie Brown??? (I was expecting 'Wah Wha,,,wha-wha'!) & If that's not Paul Frees I'll eat my weight in broccoli!
Such naïve times: 1982 - The Lincoln-Mercury cougar was shot dead after the animal attacked and seriously injured a 9-year-old boy during an automobile show. On the other hand, Mr. Ed put up with fishing line being pulled through his mouth for years.
Groucho was the Maserati of commercials U.S. to Europe .Crazy Carol Sings 2000 RUclips tunes like a Mustang Sally in car beauty.Great show when burning rubber meant what it said.
Bob Hope hitting all the Big 3...that Ford ad came after a decade of touting Chrysler products, and in the 50's his sponsors included Chevrolet and Buick.
Who was the beautiful lady in the last one? Was that Dinah Shore too? 🤩 She just oozes charisma.These were great. Love the GTO one with Sinatra and Cougar one with Farrah Fawcett.
The ad with Jack Benny for AMC was the most entertaining but had the ugliest cars. One year later AMC had the Javelin, which I still think is a nice looking car. I like that thing in the ad about those being "now" cars, I remember in the '60s stuff would be advertised as being "now" and "what's happening". I seem to remember an ad with the slogan, "It's new, it's now, it's wow!" I have to admit to expecting an ad in this compilation featuring "rich Corinthian leather" and you-know-who, but no big deal. My all-time favorite celebrity car ad (but it was in the '80s) was the Peugeot ad with Ray Charles driving one of their cars on the Bonneville salt flats. ruclips.net/video/zZ5dggGpq-Q/видео.html
1977 didnt have CGI. In that Mercury Cougar commercial...Farrah Fawcett was ACTUALLY sitting in a car with a live cougar. That's pretty brave. I dont care if that cat is trained or not. That cougar could always turn on her.
When I was growing up, all my father wanted was Chevrolet's my mom loved Buicks. My uncle and aunt loved Ford's. I liked PT Cruisers. But they don't make those anymore.
Miss Dinah Shore, with her crinolines and eighteen button gloves, introducing the 1958 Chevrolet. She was an elegant and stylish lady. When she was a child, she was struck with polio. She recovered, but had a deformed foot and limp for the rest of her life. With that in mind, I can imagine sitting with Dinah on her front porch in McMinnville, Tennessee having a glass of sweet tea. I think that's why she had a career that spanned many decades. With her elegance and stylishness, she had a "down-home" quality about her, and I'm sure that's the way she was.
I was enjoying these commercials and thinking how we used to hate commercials and still do but yet will watch the old ones. Until I saw that OJ Simpson. I wonder he could run so quick and clear Nicole's place. One glove they find at the scene and the other glove they find out his place. Look at his hand what do you have on his hand because the glove cannot slip over it. To think at one time he was an inspiration including to myself! A big guy like that who can run jump and have great athletic abilities. I don't blame them for using him in their commercials at the time. But to show them again now? I like the Farrah fawcett commercial
@@FredFlix Technically, as Bing Crosby hosted the lavish TV special THE EDSEL SHOW...the first major program to be recorded on video tape and saved to be seen today.
Watching the old videos reminds me we gotten disrespectful of of the they it was when grew up when I had a girlfriend and go to her house and meet her parents I would always call them mister and misses and never call them by ther first name and when they told me she had a to be home by what ever time it was always before that time yes there were things in the good old days that should be respected today

Love the way Farrah Fawcett was in the "Cougar" ad.
It worked on my big sister. She was a Farrah, Donna Mills blonde fembot. She bought a 77 Cougar two tone (white with red rockers). Stunning car, great interior. She drove like the ubiquitous spy girl of the era. Speedometer numbers stopped at 85, but the needle wound around anyway (I'm guessing 100 to 110 on back roads).
It got flooded the next year and she traded it on for a Trans Am Bandit special without the screaming chicken decal.

America's love affair with the automobile. When they had great style, beautiful colors and cool names. "And, of course, fine Corinthian leather."
If ads were done like this, I wouldn't skip them.
I watch old NFL games from the '70s with the original commercials and actually skip TO the commercials.
Those Peanuts cartoon ads are amazing. That was 1961 and the first Peanuts cartoon special was not broadcast until 1965.
Of course the REAL celebrity was Paul Frees doing the voice over. :D
It was an era of creativity, imagination, individuality, diversity, and choices. Now all the new houses look alike and all the new cars look more or less alike. Very few color choices. Outrageous prices. Artistically, in the last 30 to 40 years, we have been living in the dark ages.

I just want to see Kelly, the Ford girl who plugged all your local Ford dealers again. A brunette with a lovely face.
Fred...all those vintage ads, and not one from Ricardo Montalban and his "rich Corinthian leather" Plymouith Volare? >8-{
Did you really want to see that again?
No no no, he plugged that for the *Chrysler Cordoba!*
:47 That guys gotta be close to 7ft tall, my head don’t even come to the top of a full-size truck and his is over a foot taller than this truck, the truck looks small next to him!
