1970 Sport Fury GT TV Commercial (+other 1970 Chrysler ads)

I never saw a commercial for a ’70 Sport Fury GT until now:

Since these are from the Canadian (CBC) network feed of the 1969 World Series, and Chrysler was a major sponsor, there are numerous other 1970 Chrysler ads in here if you want to watch. Fun stuff.

I tend to see a lot more ’68 and earlier C-bodies in relatively good condition than fuselage cars. That seems odd because the fuselage cars are obviously newer, and you would think that there would be more of them around. But I observe just the opposite. Cars that have some use, as…
