As a European, not one car captivates my heart, what a bunch of bad taste designs. The British and Italian cars of that area. Those are not just real beauty's, but also far better to drive than these tea towels.
Yep even the late 60’s cars were still fairly inspired by the space age! The 50’s and 60’s were the most aesthetically pleasing generation ever, when it came to almost everything!
Everything looks the same today and boring to be honest. All plastic and shaped the same. The only thing that has any pizazz are the lights, and even they just look like an expensive disaster to replace.

I bought a 69 Shelby GT 350 4speed manual untouched last year, driving it takes me back to times of optimism and freedom, not to talk about the still fresh white vinyl interior. Cant compare to any new car. Just love it.
Ok..That's cool!! i had a 69 Mach 1 and it was one that I loved the most and had so much fun! Fun inside and out..lol My Uncle, my aunts husband was a Indy car driver. He qualified for the Indy 500 2xs but never started due to mechanical issues but he had a new 1970 Yellow Boss 302. It was 1970 or 71, he put $10.00 on the dash and that was a lot of $$ back then and said when I say go you grab it and it's yours. I was hell yea!! He said go & he floored it!! I was pushed back in my seat fighting G-Force! lol That's when I was really hooked on fast cars and Mustangs..Two of my 2 best friends had 65 Fastbacks with wicked 289's..
Car manuals back then would tell you how to advance the timing. Now they warn you not to drink the coolant. I guess the car companies were paying attention.

1970 Buick GSX 455 was the fastest car on the road in 70 they called it the Hemi killer, 450 hp, M20 close ratio or M22 4 speed, 3:63 Posi, perfect combination, to bad low production number, today one can fetch over $200,000.
......And many others too, And yeah not only did I remember all of those exciting rides but I had -have just bout all of em in my car collection right now.......There all a little smaller then the originals but they look just as sharp as the originals and some like their big brothers have gotten fairly expensive. I'm talking 'bout 1/64 scale Hotwheels spectraflame and redline cars that first started in 1968 and that's just the start there's 1/12,1/18, 1/24, 1/25,1/32,1/36,1/43,1/50,as well as lots of 1/64cars comming from Hotwheels, Matchbox, Johnny Lighting,Corgi,Racing Champions, Autoworld and a few others so sorry if I got long winded!!!! .
I visited a car museum just yesterday and was fortunate to see many of these cars fully restored to their former glory. The 60's, 70's and 80's were a great time.
I don't know where you live. BUT November 18 and 19th is the Muscle Car and Corvette Nationals (MCACN). 500 + cars from the 60s and 70s, mostly factory stock. It's a good time for Car enthusiasts!
@@MrSpzwd I’m like you the 80s performance was sluggish. But I love the styling all the way from the C4 Corvette to the escort GT. It was the 80s. And all the laws that had they had to follow.
Who can forget Joan Parker, with the mini skirt and high white boots, for dodge. And this is coming from a ford guy. Funny, I don’t remember any Chevy commercials. These were cars that could carry 5 adults in comfort AND their luggage, with a full sized spare.
Some of my funnest times was when I was 17 in my dark red 69 Mach 1. It had a 351w, 4sd. I put in a better cam and at times a dual quad with carters, Hooker headers..Even changed out the rear gears for Fri and Sat cruising which I stopped due to the stress it put on the shock towers. lol I had a gorgeous blue eyed blonde that I eventually lived with.. It was great times..I loved the turn signals on the hood scoop.. One of many cars I would love to have back..sigh lol
When I was in HS in the mid '70s one of my best friends (from a Ford family) had a '69 Mach I 428 CJ 4 speed, red and black like the one in the commercial, with a shaker hood and rear window slats. He paid $2,000 for it in about '75. At the same time, being from a Chevy family I had a '69 SS 396 (L78) Camaro, full cam, 4 speed, 4:11 posi, etc. I got it in '76 for $1600. Just a couple of HS kids with future classics. We used to cruise the strip but mine was wound much tighter and was more ill tempered than his mostly stock CJ. It didn't like stop and go traffic much, which caused it to run hot, and it got only 4 mpg on expensive (46 cents a gallon) 100+ octane, so we'd make an occasional pass down the strip but usually just backed them into spots at one fast food joint or another along the strip and let all the girls in Pintos, Gremlins, and Mavericks cruise past us. And yes, I know exactly what you mean. Out of the 40+ vehicles I've owned since then, that SS is at the top of the list of the ones I'd love to have back.
@@TS-ef2gv I love and probably would have seen you out cruising having fun! I also had a 71 Cuda that got totaled by a drunk woman and why I bought my Mach 1. I have always had a serious Girlfriend since the 3rd grade and man these cars just got me into more trouble. The Most fun and trouble I had I was 18 and had a Italian red Alfa Romeo Giulia - Spider. Girls would literately run up and jump in pushing another girl out of the way when we all decided to go cruising or a day at the river. When a Ferrari 308 gtb gave me a thumbs up and a pretty woman new Anchor waived I should have found a way to keep it. But cars were every where..It needed work and I traded it for a 68 Camaro Rs..sigh..lol You get it..
I owned a 1967 Ford Fairlane GT . It was metallic green with white interior 4speed with a center console , 390 . I have never seen one of like configuration. Either black , green , or blue interior . Few with 4speeds and consoles . I bought it used for $1607.00 .
The days when you could just glance at a car and know if it was a Pontiac, Buick, Ford etc. They all had distinctive looks that were unmistakable. Now, you can't tell the difference between a Ford and a Toyota.
@@IvanIvanov007 Thank goodness .... gas guzzlers .... unsafe braking systems .... lousy suspensions .... only maneuverable in wide open spaces like the Nevada desert but absolutely useless in or around towns .... it didn't make any sense why so much valuable steel was wasted on such hideous looking vehicles.
@@johnmacdonald-bb2zj I completely agree. My American made car today is an EV, great brakes, ride is butter-smooth, corners beautiful, and is faster than any of these dinosaurs.
I loved the whole thing! I was 10 years old in 1965, and was already a mini Gearhead. I knew everything about all the Big Three brands and models. My favorites were from the Ford Motor Company and the Chrysler Corporation. I really liked Mustangs, in 1966 my oldest brother bought a new black on black Mustang, it had a 289 4 barrel carburetor, duel exhaust and a 4-speed manual transmission. All his friends had Mustangs. As soon as I graduated high school in 1972, I bought a used 69 Mach l. A 351 Windsor, 4 barrel Motorcraft carburetor and an FMX automatic transmission. It had power steering and front power disc brakes. I thought it was the best-looking car ever made, and I still feel the same way now. My parents owned a 69 Chrysler 300, 4 door hardtop with the famous Chrysler 440 under hood. A very cool and powerful car. I have only ever owned Fords, Mercurys and Lincolns, and l Ioved all of them. Thanks for sharing this car commercials from the late 60s. Please, keep them coming!
I am the same age as you. My 2nd car was a 72 Ford Torino not a grand just a plain Torino. But it did have a 351 Cleveland got my first ticket smoking the tires lol. Those were definitely the good ole days.
Wow! Thanks so much for this video. I've owned a 67 Camaro, a 66 Chevy II and my father had a Galaxy 500. Watching this transported me back to my youth and so many fond memories!
I was too young to remember these commercials but remember riding in my grandfather’s 66 impala coupe and my father’s 68 lemans and mustang coupe. Now that Pontiac has passed on I’d love to have my father’s lemans. Thank you for posting this!
Joan Parker, the Dodge Fever girl was one of my many 60's crushes. Back in the mid 60's I was watching an old movie from the 30's on TV with my dad and when he saw a convertible coupe, he said that was his first car he bought when he got back from the war. I told him he should have kept because it would be worth a lot of money now. Which got me thinking about today's cars and thought they won't be valuable in the future. As you can see, I'm a bad prognosticator.
Was a kid during the sixties and remember some of these car commercials!! Then seeing them in neighbors driveways. Ended up having a 68 charger in the late 70s as my first car!! Some hot commercials for back then, especially the girl for the 68 charger commercial !! Probably my first funny feeling if you know what I mean😘 miss those days!!

That take-off of Laugh In was great. One of the clips I'll always remember is Arte Johnson peeking out from the brush and saying, ( in that accent) " veddy intellesting, but stupid." Lol! Fun to reminisce.
I bought an used 67 Impala fastback SS, turbo fire 327, 4 speed, posi track, black leather bucket seats with badging and a OME 8 track the first year! For $75 in 1977! Sold it a year later for $200 because I needed the $$$$ the biggest mistake of my life! It a Beautiful Chevy Metallic Blue! A great Car! Not over powerd but with that 4 speed it moved on down the road! A great cruiser!
Vaguely remember one during the 1967 World Series and played a version of the Spanky and our Gang big hit "Sunday Will Never Be the Same". Anyone else remember that one?
I absolutely love how happy and cheerful those Ford commercials are!💙 and being a 20 yr old Native/Indigenous american who is a Ford person, i would definitely buy myself a ford galaxie 500!
People were happier, thru the 80s and 90s. People spoke to each other. Girls didn't freak out if a guy spoke to them, they liked the attention. I would gladly go back and stay.
Some great commercials there; love the 60s style in every aspect; Plymouth had some of the best commercials in 67-69; hopefully you will get to those too;
Great commercials. I was in high school beginning late ‘68, living in Newport Beach in Southern California. So many of these vehicles were on the streets at the time (of course they were….they were new at then). Currently I own a red ‘65 Thunderbird, great car!

The last of the great American cars. No 5mph bumpers, no plastic crap, no catalytic convertors, Ethyl was available, only airbags on a car were backseat drivers, no check engine lights, and then the government got involved.....now we have million dollar Hemi Muscle cars, 100 thousand dollar GTO's and 69 Mustang's.
My first car was a 66' Mustang coupe with a 289, and after High School, I traded it in for a 69' El Camino with a 350. Half way thru college I got a 74 International Scout. Wish I still had all three
Bought my first car in 1966. It was a 1964 Chevrolet Corvair Monza. Paid $625. My current car cost $84K. Inflation over 59 years plus so many more features. Love them both!
5:38 Thats the 64-65 New York worlds Fair. I was there when I was a kid. The first time I saw a Mustang in person at the Ford pavillion. The same car I saw on the turn table.

That building looks a lot like the Drew Ford "Glass House of Cars" dealership that was in La Mesa, CA for decades. I wonder if the World's Fair building was its inspiration.
I had a 1970 Boss 302--while in high school. Yep, I moved the t-bar Hurst shfter up and down the four forward gears. I had the shaker hood scoop and this car met my needs well.
You know what struck me was that, although quite cheesy at times, the ads tried to be original and different. Today, all the car commercials are the same. "The ALL NEW abc car from xyz company", with some videos of them driving along a mountain road or something.
60s cars were all the rage but nothing tops the lugshurry of passing the grey pupon in a early 80s landow roofed Crysler LaBarron. Plus with a 90hp four banger doing 0-60 in just over 100 seconds its also a sleeper.
Excellent.A joy to watch the better saner days compared to today's garbage. To He*l with EVs and the blacked out chromeless look of today's electronic JUNK. Those beauties had artistic beauty.

That’s super clean! Back in my younger days I bought a well used but well kept 87 Limited with Leather and the 307. That was one of the most comfortable cars I’ve ever owned. I left her mostly stock. Unfortunately the high mileage caught up with the transmission.
Very good. You keep doing great videos every week. I enjoyed this video. As long as I have been on You Tube I have never seen those Ford commercials. That really sell the car. I saw Oldsmobile too. Thank you for the video and the effort. It is appreciated.

When i was a kid i would ride my bike to the 5 car dealers we had and i collected brochures from 67 to probably 82. Saved them and kinda forgot about them for years. When we sold my parents house 10 yrs ago i was clearing out the garage and there they were. I think it was over 500 of them of each dealers muscle cars. Over the next few years going to car shows i sold them and that’s how i bought my 70 Chevelle SS 454 like new. Still have enough left to get a nice Super Bee or GTO, haven’t decided yet.

Excellent! Let's have more of these, please!
Great video. Brings back the good ol' daze!
Back when cars actually looked cool and unique.
I love the 60’s Marlo Thomas look!
I'd love to have any of these cars now... beautiful
Such Imagination, upbeat, fun, young and all American. What great days! No SUV will ever capture that magic.
Great comment, absolutely correct !
The girls back then were so much more prettier and held more self respect !!

@@ThisOldCarChannel you got it 👍
Yes they were elegant and held themselves to high esteem.
And they stayed in the kitchen and kept their mouth shuts. Ahh what a time
@@ThisOldCarChannel I’ve just subscribed to I agree the girls are prettier however the advertising experts were much cornier !🌽
That take-off of Laugh In was great. One of the clips I'll always remember is Arte Johnson peeking out from the brush and saying, ( in that accent) " veddy intellesting, but stupid." Lol!
Fun to reminisce.
I bought an used 67 Impala fastback SS, turbo fire 327, 4 speed, posi track, black leather bucket seats with badging and a OME 8 track the first year! For $75 in 1977! Sold it a year later for $200 because I needed the $$$$ the biggest mistake of my life! It a Beautiful Chevy Metallic Blue! A great Car! Not over powerd but with that 4 speed it moved on down the road! A great cruiser!
You got a good buy. I paid $600 in early 1978 for Ford Torino 351.
I love that 69 Ford music. Just captured the commercial vibe of the era so perfectly.
Loved watching this. Thank You!
Vaguely remember one during the 1967 World Series and played a version of the Spanky and our Gang big hit "Sunday Will Never Be the Same". Anyone else remember that one?
I absolutely love how happy and cheerful those Ford commercials are!💙 and being a 20 yr old Native/Indigenous american who is a Ford person, i would definitely buy myself a ford galaxie 500!
People were happier, thru the 80s and 90s. People spoke to each other. Girls didn't freak out if a guy spoke to them, they liked the attention. I would gladly go back and stay.
Great time period
Thank you, Boca Brothers, for another fabulous video !
Thanks Steven. We can't tell if you're a subscriber but we think you are! THANKS SO MUCH!

Cool cars and commercials and that 'red carpet' with the Ambassador was creative. The girl featured in
the Dodge commercial is super cute :)
Joan Parker in the Dodge commercial 😍
That mustang commercial music was reworked by Aaron spelling for "Charlie's Angels" 😇
And Charlie's Angels drove a Mustang II !
EXACTLY 💯
I love the Chevy commercials the best ! However they are ALL GREAT!
Some great commercials there; love the 60s style in every aspect; Plymouth had some of the best commercials in 67-69; hopefully you will get to those too;
Fun fact : Cars in 1969 that were built with 90 % metal and 10 % plastic got almost the same mpg as cars built today with 90 % plastic and 10 % metal
Great job, enjoyed seeing this. Can you make a pt. 2?
Make a pt?
Yeah, we want a part 2!
"Handy door pockets", the predecessors of the ubiquitous "cup holders".
We didn't have a color TV, so it was nice to see these in color.
Great commercials. I was in high school beginning late ‘68, living in Newport Beach in Southern California. So many of these vehicles were on the streets at the time (of course they were….they were new at then).
Currently I own a red ‘65 Thunderbird, great car!
Used to go to a car dealer and drool. Today it's like .... Yuck, what is that thing.
There was a Mercury commercial where a football player threw a pass through the back glass that rolled down. Loved that one. 😊
I don't care how unsafe people say cars from the 60's are. I would rather die in a car from the 60's than live with a modern crossover.
How 'bout being crippled for life from an accident in a "car from the 60s?"
Just don’t take out anyone with you then please.
@@WAL_DC-6B the death numbers haven't changed.
@@svjim1 According to U.S. federal highway statistics, you were twice as likely to die in a vehicular accident in 1946 than you are today. "Happy Motoring!"
@@WAL_DC-6B I guess you don’t work in a hospital, in these times.
Hey can you do a video on Joe Isuzu? Those commercials were funny 🤣
The Joe Isuzu commercials were awesome. Great suggestion.
Good idea!
In 1969, a lot of us were in the Army overseas...
Marines! Lol
Welcome home
Very joyful to watch! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
We had the same music for the Falcon Escort and Cortina in Australia around 68 and 69
The Ambassador commercial was pretty imaginative.
Of all the cars shown, My favorite is the AMC Ambassador
👍👍Another Great posting guys .. The '60's - '80's were the best years for auto styling every car looked different not like todays cars.. Thanks Guys for taking us back and remembering the days of youth 😎👍👍🍻✌🖐
50s-70s.
The 80's were great if you liked boxes.
This was fantastic and love to see more!
In the first Dudge commercial…The quarterback, number 21…was he not John Hadl of the San Diego Chargers?
Oh Wow...I Was Living In Flushing, NY When Those Commercials Came Out! Great Memories!

I would love to have these files and many more to produce a video showing commercials from various countries during the same time periods.
The last of the great American cars. No 5mph bumpers, no plastic crap, no catalytic convertors, Ethyl was available, only airbags on a car were backseat drivers, no check engine lights, and then the government got involved.....now we have million dollar Hemi Muscle cars, 100 thousand dollar GTO's and 69 Mustang's.
My first car was a 66' Mustang coupe with a 289, and after High School, I traded it in for a 69' El Camino with a 350. Half way thru college I got a 74 International Scout. Wish I still had all three
Bought my first car in 1966. It was a 1964 Chevrolet Corvair Monza. Paid $625. My current car cost $84K. Inflation over 59 years plus so many more features. Love them both!
5:38 Thats the 64-65 New York worlds Fair. I was there when I was a kid. The first time I saw a Mustang in person at the Ford pavillion. The same car I saw on the turn table.

That building looks a lot like the Drew Ford "Glass House of Cars" dealership that was in La Mesa, CA for decades. I wonder if the World's Fair building was its inspiration.
I was hoping you would have the commercial for the 1967 Chrysler, the one that’s been stuck in my head for the last 56 years..😂
Much cooler cars that you didn’t need a mortgage to buy.
I believe they covered a new model car and had you guessing until September.
The Camero commercial was so over the top most of the time you couldn't even see the car!
I had a 1970 Boss 302--while in high school. Yep, I moved the t-bar Hurst shfter up and down the four forward gears. I had the shaker hood scoop and this car met my needs well.
That Camaro ..... on my bucket list to own someday
Pontiac GTO Judge - 1969.
My favorite was the AMC Ambassador ❤
My very first set of wheels was a 1961 Ford Falcon!!! SO reliable, SO comfortable inside, PLUS great mpg!!!!!...in it, I begat my first child...
You know what struck me was that, although quite cheesy at times, the ads tried to be original and different. Today, all the car commercials are the same. "The ALL NEW abc car from xyz company", with some videos of them driving along a mountain road or something.
60s cars were all the rage but nothing tops the lugshurry of passing the grey pupon in a early 80s landow roofed Crysler LaBarron. Plus with a 90hp four banger doing 0-60 in just over 100 seconds its also a sleeper.
Excellent.A joy to watch the better saner days compared to today's garbage. To He*l with EVs and the blacked out chromeless look of today's electronic JUNK. Those beauties had artistic beauty.
These adds are such a contrast to the Audi ad I had to endure before these videos rolled.
I remember ALL of these beauties rollin' in the streets when I was no mo' than fo' yeas ol'...they were new but i was mo' fascinated by the '50s cars.
‘Mach it to me’ that’s great. I don’t remember that one as a kid.
Awesome Commercials Thank you.

1969 Chevrolet Chevelle SS!!!!
That’s super clean! Back in my younger days I bought a well used but well kept 87 Limited with Leather and the 307. That was one of the most comfortable cars I’ve ever owned. I left her mostly stock. Unfortunately the high mileage caught up with the transmission.
you mean buick regal limited ? 1987 buick had a 307.
Very good. You keep doing great videos every week. I enjoyed this video. As long as I have been on You Tube I have never seen those Ford commercials. That really sell the car. I saw Oldsmobile too. Thank you for the video and the effort. It is appreciated.
Especially the Dodge girls in the 1970 commercials. A reason for buying a 1970 dart swinger in top banana yellow.
I drove most of those cars back then. They were fantastic. Not like the junk we drive now..
Tune in tomorrow, same Bat time , same Bat station😂
That pretty Dodge model would be close to 80 now. Time flies.
My first car was a Ford Galaxy 500 convertible. I loved that car. I also had a pal whose father had a Buick 410 wildcat we used to drive in the cow fields. I miss those days. Thanks for the vid.
Great job as usual Boca, keep up the great and interesting content!!!!

Awesome Video Thanks !
When i was a kid i would ride my bike to the 5 car dealers we had and i collected brochures from 67 to probably 82. Saved them and kinda forgot about them for years. When we sold my parents house 10 yrs ago i was clearing out the garage and there they were. I think it was over 500 of them of each dealers muscle cars. Over the next few years going to car shows i sold them and that’s how i bought my 70 Chevelle SS 454 like new. Still have enough left to get a nice Super Bee or GTO, haven’t decided yet.
My Dad had a Torino. Nearly totaled it going skiing in northern New England on crappy tires. Fond memories!
Where do I pick up my new '69 Chevy Camaro SS?
3:00 They are using the Laff In TV show motif.🤣✊😝
yup!
