1979 ads Union 76

A stay at home mom gets the tires she needs in the service bay at her nearby Union 76®. And why would the employee do her wrong: it's Larry Wilcox!




By this point, CHiPs had been on the air for a season, and I don't know if this ad was filmed before he got the role of Jon Baker. Union 76 could have seized on his rising popularity and brought this back or continued its circulation.

I believe Larry Wilcox was in earlier Union 76 commercials too. They put one on the E! True Hollywood stories for CHiPs.
