Looks like a '80's style ad

No, it's a 60s ad. I think I have it here in one of my magazines.

On the right edge of the ad it's dated Oct 1968. I never saw this ad before....

New to me. Which magazine was this advertised in?

It's actually pretty clever - and the fact that Chevy let them release it without any pic of the car is quite something.

Not unheard of in terms of one of the sister divisions...

Yes, exactly Keith - a bit of a ground-breaker at the time.

Great text in that Pontiac ad!

Re: Ever see this Z/28 ad?
 
I'm a little biased, but Pontiac consistently had the best ads of the bunch - certainly not VW ads, but good for advertising in general.

I've posted this before ...

Back in the 60s there was a Mr Norms commercial played on WLS in Chicago -- it was the same theme as the Superman &quot;leadin&quot; ... here it is (the best I can remember)

Faster than a 440 Magnum, more powerful than a street Hemi, can leap wide intersections at a single bound. What described as a small subcompact at a large Chicago dealer fights a never ending battle for street, strip and the interstate … Mr Norms Grand Spalding Dodge.

Commercial played on WLS – talking about Mr Norms 440 powered GSS Dart ..

I prob should explain that I used to work in advertising, and Des still does, hence the opinions of these ads.

the Z/28 had a giant super hero ad.
It was called &quot;Captain Nice&quot; AKA Mark Donohue

Mark sold a lot of 1969 Z/28s, like the way Burt Reynolds sold Trans Am Firebirds

I always liked this advertising slogan...

Camaro Z/28
Very Even Tempered.
Mean All The Time.
