Quiz: TV ad from the 1970s

Nov 15, 2008 3 Replies

This unforgetaable (to me) ad came up in a conversation today, IIRC, it's from the 1970s. Can you fill in the spaces?



You see a green mountain scene, with a grassy slope going away from you, and a small patch of black road at the bottom. There is the sound of someone going up and down through the gears. Suddenly, a red sport sedan (coupe>) comes into view on the road and the voice -over says, "Every ________ leaving the ______ factory rides of _____________tires". as a man exits the passenger (far) side of the car. "Why? Because ________________."



{Not a trick question,)


wasn't tires

Every Ferrari leaving the Milan factory is filled with MOBIL-1 oil

Why?

Because Mr. Ferrari wants it that way

man exiting the car was Mr. Enzo Ferrari

IIFC, it was Tires.- Goodyear. I wish I still had a copy when I - moved to GB. It was in Beta, I have an influencial friend out looking for a Goodyear copy - guess I'll have to tell him your side. Thia is for a Ferrari show.
