“Well, shoot!”
(Burton Gilliam for Quaker State, 1978)
“Quaker State helps cars last.”
Happy Friday the 13th, ‘Disco Dwellers! Here’s a spot for Quaker State motor oil featuring appearances by Greg Evigan (B.J and the Bear) and Burton Gilliam (Blazing Saddles). The commercial aired in January 1978 and was likely produced in 1977.

Last post I swear.
After watching this, I was compelled to rummage through the junk box in the garage and sure enough, I found an old metal spigot used for opening oil cans before the plastic screw top bottle became all the rage.
Haha. Nice. Another 50 years and it’ll be a fine collectible!
