  • This is the way to sell a car. I remember just this kind of ad in the 60's in the bay area here. Nice to see this.

  • hahahaha nice old commercial

  • I wish cars like that sold for that kind of price now a days.

  • Whoa! Whoa! BACK THE FUCK UP! Did he say that thing has a radio AND a heater? For ONLY 695, damn! Forget the airconditioner in Flordia, this baby has a heater.

  • Man ill take 20 of them please F''''the paper work take my money

  • That was RAD!!!!!!!!!.

  • This is back in the days, when a car reached 100,000 miles ,it was ready for the junkyard.

  • He's hitting those cars pretty hard! If it was a modern day car, he'd dent the door. They used real steel in them back in those days!

  • The Ranchwagon is only $695, why?

  • @mistersmith6000 The Ranch Wagon was the base station wagon model. It probably had no options. I would guess it was a 6 cylinder with 3 on the tree. Any car over 50,000 miles was considered high milage back then. Since this was a S. Florida ad, the car might have even lacked a heater. That too was an extra coat item on base models back then. Assuming this commercial was aired in 1965, $695.00 would be about $4800.00 in todays dollars.

  • @geargemartin

    The guy says it has an automatic, radio and a heater.

    Must have had 100,000 miles

  • @DamnStraightM35A2 oh, didn't catch that.

  • Used car commercials throughout the USA in the '60s were notorious for being hard-sell like this one, with several cars being driven past the camera in succession and a fast-talking announcer yelling at you the entire time.

    And yes, the 1960 Ford station wagon does come VERY close to tapping the bumper of the '63 Ford in front of it.

  • 1st one is now a nigroid

  • This guy is Jack O'Brian. They called him 'Jumpin Jack O'Brian.' He was the pitchman for Municipal Auto Sales for nearly two decades, did most of these commercials LIVE and was the best known used car salesman ever in South Florida!

  • $2300 For A 64 Rag Damm Thats ch3ap As fuck

  • yeh $2300 sounds cheap.....but remember minimum wage was about 75 cents an hour and a really good job paid about 9000 a year

  • witch year was this

  • A nice used station wagon for $695? I wonder what the payments would run.

  • I love the way those babies rock back and forth when they stop and even when he hits them. Good old sloppy seconds suspension, a design feature of American cars whose ass aged like wine.

  • i remember this dick head puttin' dents in all them cars !!

  • lol

  • I suppose I would be grouchy and calling people dickheads if my mother had never married my father.

  • sun of a bitch!! i would be glad to pay that for a 64 impala!!!

  • anyone have a time machine????

  • Old time Miami, what a kick! Those were the days the 60's in Miami, groovy, man.

  • I like your video clip and have rated it as awesome. Please check out mine on some 1930's motor car tobacco cards.

  • $2300 bucks for a '64?! Man that was a ton of money in those days...

  • That Chevy Convertible SuperSport is worth about $50 grand or more today.

  • Note that the second car almost got hit by the third car, I wouldn't trust the ad becuase the car almost got hit. Kinda scary, don't you think?

  • We worked very hard to keep the cars tight, so the 2nd car would be there when I turned around and so would the third. It only back-fired once in the years I did commercials for Municipal.

    Jack O'Brien

    NO, it wasn't SCARY....it was PLANNED!
