p.j. sent in this Chrysler Duster ad from 1971. The mom is worried that her daughter is more concerned with driving Chryslers than getting a husband. Notice the sexy woman and sultry voice-over…because women can sell cars to men only if they’re sexy.

I also like the casually patronizing way the salesman calls the (Jewish?) woman “Mama.”

p.j. originally found this video at Classic Ad Watch. In the comments to their post:

Screw the car,i’d give Ethel abig bore!
I’ve got a Slant Six for Ethel!
Ethel will take hers 4 on the floor please.

Nice.
