Great vintage 60's Bensen Aircraft and Kodak Super 8 TV commercial. It all looks so simple.

Ive lurked here a while, but never posted because all im doin is dreaming at this point. I love the forum and the friendly atmosphere. Im a believer that any kind of mass produced (cheap) gyro would sell like hotcakes. I want to see new commercials with gyros in them.:cool:

Entertaining ad, and a reminder of the slower pace of an earlier era. Most young people today don't realise what a revolution it was to have cartridge loading video (and still!) cameras.

Not sure when it was made. At the start, the two executives come out, and one who is about to board a 1965 or '66 Ford Mustang Convertible, but instead watches with envy as the other helmets up. As the two men separate, a Cadillac convertible passes by in the background. After looking at Cadillacs online (I know my 60s Lincolns by heart but only the Cadillacs someone in the family owned), the Caddy could be anything from 65 on to 70 but is probably a 1966 Coupe de Ville.

(I know, a convertible Coupe de Ville should be a Cabriolet de Ville, but they don't speak French all that well in Detroit).

cheers
