That 1965 AD is amazing! Wonder what it would cost today
to put that many top stars in a commercial for a car.

The ad was great!
Maybe since Chevrolet sponsored the shows themselves, the stars had a "paper obligation" to do that for next to nothing...

Hey Verne,

Another thing struck me as funny. We all know that Dan
Blocker was "given" a Z-16 Chevelle by the folks @ Chevy.
Odd he didn't introduce that particular model. I'd prefer
Liz Montgomery anyday any-way.....

Wonder what the date was for this shoot? Probably before
the Z-16's went into production anyway. They were a mid
year intro weren't they?

Steve

Steve,
I don't know much about Z-16s, except I had a chance to buy one in '74 for $1100. because the guy couldn't afford the gas! It was in very nice shape, but I was fresh out of the Navy and didn't have that much money.......

Great stuff, looks like the Corvette is a red/red 365 horse. It appears to have a 6500 rpm redline and it's not a fuelie.

Very cool!!! .
Sammy looks so great as usual!!! .
That 'Vair coupe has such a perfect stance! .
See where Blocker checks out Endora's butt? .
I wonder if this was shot at Pioneerland or whatever the name of that old western town movie location is that's going up in flames today? .
Sammy....yumm!!! .

That video was great. Sure would be nice to see some more GM promo films like that.......... Pretty nice of that enthusiast to share them.

Verne,

There were a ton of SHP cars available in '74 in the Philly
area but my Dad wouldn't let me get one. He claimed that
gas was too expensive, insurance was too expensive, and that
the muscle car era was dead! What did he know!!! Just
look at all of us today.

Steve

I knew I had this somewhere and I finally found it while watching an old VHS tape. I was lucky enough to grab a few minutes of this episode where Samantha is driving her 69 RS Rallye Green Convertible, with spoilers. The quality isn't that great cause I took a picture of the TV. But how awesome!
