- I've re-uploaded this film again with even better color and clarity than previously. The factory scenes are on the assembly line producing the 1962 Plymouth Fury. This lays out the advertising campaign for Plymouth for 1963. Gary Owens does the voice over
I miss Plymouth. 😢. My first cr was a used 1969 Plymouth VIP bought in 1976. Loved that car...a beautiful barge.
My pops had that same car. I can still remember the smell of the interior. Tan with a black vinyl top.
This is exactly how to describe the 1963 Plymouth - possibly the most stately and exciting of all post war cars.
I was 14 in '62 when the 63 models came out in the fall. I cannot say that anything about this ad would have made me want a 63 Plymouth. I've owned a 64 Dodge 440, 426 wedge, a 69 383 4 speed RR, and a 70 440-6 4 speeed RR. SB swapped FJ-40 Landcruiser, couple of K cars, 67 Dart, and 74 Val Scamp. Several Dakotas, and couple of Rams, and now an 01 Cummins which I converted to 4wd. I am 75 headed towards 76
This was an introduction film for dealers, so you as a 14 year old kid wouldn't have ever seen it. It was to build excitement for the Dealers who had just suffered a bad year with the 62 Plymouth. They were all desperate for a new product to sell. this wasn't made for public consumption.
Loved that music so much, I had to watch the damn thing two times in a row!! excellent video!
agree 100%, LOVE the music!
These were "new for '63" and so was I, born in November 1962.
A lifelong Plymouth guy I bought one for my first car ( and several more) . My dad and most of the extended family drove Plymouths. I found the 1961 and 1962 models to be depressing ugly ducklings. When I first saw the ‘63 , I was super pleased. It was and still is a beauty! Thanks for showing this.
I watched a 1963 Film uploaded on Mymopar here in youtube.......the film was from Plymouth with the Sales Manager of the Division speaking....he said.:...there's one thing that you notice right away when you look at the 1963 model, and that is, it's not 1962!". Tha'ts pretty telling how everyone felt...there are many folks now that say how much they think the 62 is attractive, but the reality is that in 1962, the Plymouth Dealers hated the car.
My first car was a 1963 Belvedere 4 door.
Ward Cleaver drove '63 Fury on Leave It to Beaver.
Yes he had a new Plymouth every year, except in the first seasons of the shows he drove Ford vehicles, nobody's perfect! I still have my 62 Plymouth, had it signed by Jerry Mathers, it's a keeper.
A meal at Jack-n- box gets me on the move.
We had a 64 Belvedere a 69 Fury VIP and later a 71 Fury. I grew up with Plynmouth. Both my pops and his pops before him had Chrysler vehicles. Still pining for a '70 Dart Swinger 340. A feller can dream, can't he?
This was a good damage control move from the 62 model debacles
The soundtrack is from the popular album of the time "Music to Kill Oneself To"
i own the 63 4door
Me as well
I have a 63 sport fury 383 golden commando

Plymouth went to the moon. wow.
SuperWatson63 Chevy went to the dump.
There's not enough bongo music in today's advertising.
I agree! Another instrument that's not used in TV Advertising or Commercials is the Harpsichord...that was used a lot in the 60's........I love Bongos!!!
Alimonytony needs more cowbell
only computers ritmn
Sounded a bit like Dinah Shore. Did switch sides? 🙃
3:02 Ah, yes…the days when you could pack as many kids in the back of a station wagon as would fit!
where he hell did you find this?
I'm a collector of film, can't say I recall where i got this....more than likely from another film collector...in fact now that I think of it., I think you'll see some copies from VHS uploads or from DVD's that the previous film owner made and sold....uploaded by other youtube users..........but my upload is from that same negative, but improved color wise and in HD format.
At 3:32 - I believe the console ashtray is in backwards.
That car looks way cooler than any stupid Hyundai.
that's for DAMN sure!

....It's on the move.........I'm Gary Owen.....
You're correct! I didn't recognize that. Good Ear, I listened thru and I could definitely hear in some of the words his normal pronunciation and voice should quality. He was young when he did this voice over.
It sounds like Steve Lawrence and Eydie Gorme were singing the 'Plymouth's On The Move' jingle. Does anyone know if it is for sure?
Pretty Sure it's "Jamie and the "J"'s, a studio group out of NYC. They produced some record albums in the 60's too. They did a lot of work for Chrysler. Jamie had a voice very similiar to Edie Gorme and could hit some really high notes like Edie Gorme. Edie Gorme did do Plymouth work in 1966 thru 1970.
@@OsbornTramain Thank you for that information. I did a Wiki search and enjoyed reading about the group (actually known as The J's with Jamie).
1961 and 62 were bad years for Mopar. They had to do something to make a comeback. Plymouths best sales years were 65 thru 68.
But there is something absolutely enchanting about the 1963 model. It is timeless and has a look of genuine grandeur.
Lincoln started this styling in 1961, Chrysler Corporation was still building cars with styling from 1959 and 1960, it was evident up til the 1962 models. Chrysler decided 1963 would be the year and they overhauled all their cars and brought it up cars that people wanted with the timeless and elegant styling, the days of big tailfins and rocket ship styling was long gone, people wanted more simpler styling but it was in good taste none the less, I would love to own a classic Mopar anyday, the one thing about Chrysler they always had unique features on their cars.
That things hauling ass!
Steve Lawrence and Edie Gorme'? Sounds like 'em.
I don't think so. I'm a big fan of them......and have listened to this a few times and it sound's similiar to them, but I don't think it's actually them. But Edye Gorme did do the singing in Plymouth commercials in 1966 and 1967. "Plymouth is about to win you over this year........follow your heart to your Plymouth dealer today...".
Thanks, and I really enjoy your uploads!
OsbornTramain The female singer could be Keely Smith.
I don't think so....but, yes, she does sound like Keely Smith. It's just that Keely Smith wasn't known for doing commercials, she was pretty Vegas central.

2:25 Plymouth may be on the move, but those 4 wheel drum brakes will have a hard time stopping after getting wet like that.
There were only two automobiles that used Disc brakes in 1963, the Studebaker Avanti and the Jaguar XKE. Everyone used drum brakes at the time because Discs were just being invented for automobiles.
It would have been nice if they had shown the car more
This isn't a commercial for the public, it's a commercial for Dealers and Sales people. What the car looked like doesn't really matter to them, it's already cast in stone. What matters to them his "how to sell the car". Promotion, Technological changes. Production changes. For us now today, it would be nice to see more shots.....but the film serves it's purpose well for the time it was created. Sales did increase in 1963
polyester tires. looks dangerous.
Yeah, only a modern asshole would say that.
