A friend sent me these. When we were teenagers I had a friend with a Nash Rambler. His car was always in demand for Saturday nights. And I remember draining oil like that but without the hole and gravel. Don't think I have ever run across wheel ants though.... Bob

Can't say I remember any of those except maybe the oil change. Don't remember using the gravel either.
I am sure any of those ads would now get you thrown in so deep that sunshine would have to be piped in!! [-X[-X

In my youth, I was a Pontiac man.
Liked that ad more than the WIDE track one that followed.
In fact those words seem somehow vaguely familiar as I owned Pontiac's from age 16-23!
Don't know why they seem familiar........................
I had a permanently mounted cooler in the trunk of my first 64.
Uhhh oummmm ..........................
ahemmm...
i have NO recollection of such things.
mere rumor and unproven innuendo and fake news.
I support the me too movement retroactively and completely!
No complaints were ever heard, nor were any charges ever filed.
It WAS a different world back then; really, it was!

I just realized that I should include mention of a Corvette in this thread to keep things legit, so here is what happens when a Corvette mates with a Smart Car-- a Smorvette. Also a more modern ad from BMW for used cars, probably run in Europe, as well as a couple others just for fun. It is the middle of winter and I needed a few laughs. (Some of these might have been posted before).--Bob
