LOL!

What's that clip from?

".... you can even eat the dishes... the candyman!..."

Willie Wonka and The Chocolate Factory - original version with Gene Wilder.

Fantastic!

This really shows how unsophisticated car advertising was in those days. Does that romantic background music come even close to conveying the feeling of a sports car? It's more like what you'd use for the scene where the girl melts into some guy's arms. The car almost seems like a distraction.

Anyway, it's nice to see a Spridget in its element--those winding, hedge-lined roads out in the British countryside. It's probably the only car small enough to let two pass side by side on those roads without risking the loss of a lot of sheet metal.

Still can't get used to seeing it on the wrong side of the road, though.

don't think it's an ad - no copy - grille badges Willy Wonka music etc. I think it's just a pretty clip put up by a Midget lover - I do like it though - and I like the song lyrics since they more or less describe my motivation for all this car stuff

Come with me
And you'll be
In a world of
Pure imagination
Take a look
And you'll see
Into your imagination

We'll begin
With a spin
Traveling in
The world of my creation
What we'll see
Will defy
Explanation

I think he made that a couple of years ago when he was trying to sell the car. He was a member of another bbs.

I don't mean to give the guy a hard time or anything (because is a nice vid), but with those roads, that car, I think I may have tried to push the cars attributes a little more persuasively, perhaps with my right foot...?

 

[blkcorvair]

Very cool.

 

[jlaird]

Wish I could do that kind of stuff, looks like fun.

[regularman]

Yeah, that can't be an ad. That kick of smoke out the pipe would not be plus on that.
