This would date from the brief period when the Studebaker Lark suddenly sold extremely well, as car buyers shifted away from huge, finned American cars to compacts, most of which were imports. As soon as the Big 3 American companies introduced their 1960 compacts (Valiant, Corvair, and Falcon), the Lark sadly lost most of its appeal.
The new car was a Studebaker Lark, most probably a 1959 model, but possibly a 1960. The quality of the video doesn't show details clearly enough to tell them apart. Fun commercial though! Thanks!
If this is how they advertised their cars it's no wonder they went out of business.
