70s Spots: Ford Maverick (1970) & Pinto (1971)

The Grabber (suitable for framing)

“Why gamble? We’ve got three sure things for you.”

A pair of early Seventies Ford commercials rolling into view. First, the Maverick line-up featuring The Grabber muscle car debut from September of 1970.

Second, Chaffey College students in California drive a Pinto 100 thousand miles – and live to tell the happy tale. This spot aired in October 1971.
