1937 - "A Ride for Cinderella" by Chevrolet

This animated cartoon is a bizarre ad for Chevrolet, retelling the famous fairy tale of "Cinderella," except this time, Cinderella's vehicle of choice is a reliable Chevy. Driving the car, Cinderella is able to save herself from the peril suffered by those forced to a life of travel by coach. That said, this isn't a particularly strong ad for Chevrolet, as it doesn't really specify what kind of car it is. Enjoyable for classic animation fans, nonetheless.

This is a great sequel to "A Coach for Cinderella" and the prince is actually pretty cute.

funny isn't it ha? the world gay meaning happy, and joyful was so widely used !, but for some stupid reason now it means homosexual! I wonder if the "gay" community are aware of the significance of that !

This was the sequel to Chevrolet/Jam Handy's successful 1936 'advertising film', "A Coach For Cinderella", in which we discover what happens after Cindy and her new Chevy arrive at the Royal Ball....

actually i should say it does feature very cleverly some design features of the car such as rigid chassis fully independent front and semi-independent rear suspentions the better to cushion the ride cross ventilation system all-weather reliability and something very evident ease of driving for the lady driver notice how satisfied she looked driving her coach which incidentally was a model name for a 4 door in GM also remember "Body by Fisher" and t coach logo
