The Supercar Registry - You Can't Make This Stuff Up!

'

Cool pics Lee and thanks again for all the great stuff you dig up and post here!
Wonder how the Cessna in the one pic was associated w/ GM, in use by them or maybe arranged by their Advertising Agency?
'68 Skyhawk 172-K - CN#17257706 - Lycoming 0-320 Flat-4 - N78652 - Current/Registered in the US by a VA Corp.

Thanks for the kudos Pete - greatly appreciated!

There are two "themes" that seem to go with auto ads created in the 1960s and early 1970s for "sporty" cars:" small airplanes and scuba diving. I could post lots of PR photos with them. I don't think there is any relationship between them other than what the ad agency is trying to have to photo say to a potential buyer.

Some do have a relationship like the one below - The Donzi is "Powered By Ford."

Looks like a 337 Super Sky Smasher in the background ... maybe a 336 ... TAZ

The hood emblem in the pic above got me thinking 69/70 Acadian so I looked closer.
Can't 'member ever seeing a Dealer Emblem mounted on a hood before?
:hmmm:

In late '68 and early '69 the cops were writing noise tickets on the chambered cars left and right. I don't remember swapping out any systems myself, but there were a bunch of chambered systems stacked on end next to my stalls in the service dept. of Schukei Chevrolet, waiting to be scrapped.
