Lorne Greene along with the rest of the cast from Bonanza were great actors, great people back in a time when this world was much better and people seemed nicer and did the right things !!!
My father worked at a Chevy dealership back then , as a ten year old boy I loved going for a visit and often would get a preassembled promotional AMT chevy model car, Wished I kept them all still have some of my Dads nifty Corvette cufflings from back then I think they were another promo item. Yes like someone else metioned here how cool the new car showings were I still remember seeing all the spotlights from the dealerships back then it was like a hollywood premier! Such an excting era
I grew up about a mile from the GM Proving Grounds in Milford, Michigan. Love this vintage promotional film!
The new car year was a great deal more fun back then. Fall meant new cars and new programs on TV.
the Joie chitwood segment was awesome, those thrill shows were alot of fun.
Wow! L-72 427 Caprice at 17:45...now that is a rare car!
As you probably know. Chevrolet sponsored "BONANZA" during the 1960's- and the cast frequently appeared in integrated commercials for their sponsor at the end of the program, and sales films such as this.
Joey Chitwood!..and those Precision Drivers!..And Adam Cartwright to Boot..YEE Haaw!..
Sweet video
1966. I turned 13 that year. Wooo..
Me 6.
this was the year I was born. Looking at this history of these cars is amazing. Too bad cars are plastic pieces of crap now, and 10 times more expensive.
I could not agree more...I was born in 64 with the real cars...and that's my favorite car 64 impala
But they don't have the soul, spirit, glamour, style, personality and charm than the recicled plastic bottles on wheels that overpriced today's car are. Once you see a modern one, you see all cars around.
sheldon blankenship True, but as a 1966 Chevy owner I can say that driving a well-maintained vintage car is much more enjoyable....
#turbotitanIII never thought I'd see footage of that rig
14:47- Joel Aldred speaks for Chevrolet.
The animation sequence at the beginning looks like it was done by the same studio that did the Pink Panther cartoons.
+Foxonian I think Depatie-Freleng enterprises may have done this since they did the Pink Panther cartoons and other cartoon shorts. The cartoons and music were typical of the mid-Sixties pre-Woodstock.
Just goes to show that people were easily amused back in the day.

How far we have fallen and the Japanese took over
