After finding out that the body shell of my 442 is an absolute mess and a donor body was suggested, I needed a little cheering up so I went looking for a few of my favorite car commercials.

I think this is one of my favorites.

This one is great too. "...tired of the same old bag of notes???"

And, last but not least, The Humbler. Even the song is groovy.

Hopefully people will post their own favorites. I'm always game for seeing old commercials. I'm a big fan.

great commercials...love the GTO one. Does anyone remember the AMC commercials that featured a blown AMX? I think it was from around 68-70. Different car but all I remember was..." Thats a Matador?" am I confused?

I know it's much newer than those, but I loved that Camaro Z-28 commercial from around '94 and the kids were listening to the cars go by and the one identified the Camaro just by the exhaust sound.

I always liked the ( Dodge or Plymouth ) Sheriff saying " You in a heap a trouble boy "

I love that Plum Crazy commercial.
I dubbed it's audio on 8TK tape,so I can play it through my Chevelles 8tk player,and home 8tk stereo too.
That same sheriff character,was actually who Jackie Gleason copied for his role in Smokey & the Bandit.
This youtube version is really poor quality though.

sorry...it was " that's a Javelin?" so it was most likely a supercharged Javelin in the guys front driveway...70ish?

Nothing beats the Diehard Battery commercial with that old custom painted / muraled Barracuda and the kid's parents trying to drive it, lol.

I think that car was named "Corky's Cuda."
