Love the interplay with the glider - very cool.

@CurbsideColumn I think a lot of times, commercial mimic things of the popular or cool things of the day. I know that in the movie about the same time, "The Thomas Crown Affair" there's a scene with Steve McQueen flying a glider. It's a pretty neat scene and can be found on youtube. I'm thinking this might be why you see it in the Chrysler ad about the same time.

Awesome commercial, makes it not seem so long ago!!!

[OsbornTramain]

It really doesn't seem so long ago and the commercial itself seems very modern for the time. :O)

man, there is a gorgeousn black 68 300 440 with a black vinyl top for sale in the US for only 11,500. To me, I'm only 24, and I'd rather have one of these then a 70 Challenger. I just love the look, the feel of these cars. And Idk where they get their numbers from. I swear a 440 300 does a quarter in like 14.

Underappreciated and undervalued. These were beautifully-styled Chryslers with the same power as the Chargers, et al. Find a convertible!

favorite car right there

[willyicious]

In a contest pitting Chuck Norris against William Conrad's voice in a battle to the death, my money would be on Conrad.

I owned one about 20 years back. My first "second car"..I was 29 and thought I could afford another car. I always wanted a 300. Brakes were crap and it hated to start. I sold it for much less than I paid. It was a hoot to drive, however...even w/bad brakes.
