Southern California auto dealerships had awesome jingles in the 80s

I’m going through that Cal Worthington ad, and see how he’s introducing all these sweet rides from the early seventies and some from the sixties, too. And look at those prices! Almost none of them would last long on the market today at those prices, including, or especially, that 1972 240z for $1900. And that '71 Firebird with the snorkle hood, nine hundred bucks. Wow.

What I also noticed was that he stopped, and the camera skipped, that AMC Pacer that was up next. Every time, that same line of cars was shown several times, and every time, the camera cut away just before that Pacer showed up. Kinda sad, feel sorry for that ugly lil duckling in a way. Here’s a link queued up to that spot.
