How could it get any better than this commercial in 1964?

Dan Blocker and 64 Chevrolets

I remember very well those grand Chevrolet commercials during Bonanza on Sunday nights.

Dan even managed to get out of the truck wearing his TGH. I wonder how many takes that required?

**mongocanfly** · 11-04-2020, 09:36 PM

Never seen those before..dang,,, he makes that corvair look small

He makes the C10 look small.

Its a shame we will never have new trucks that good again.

Yep, I remember that.

I guess that is why they gave Dan a new 1965 Chevelle SS Z16 one of 201 I believe.

My dad knew the boys. I met the primary three on a few occasions. Decades later I met Parnell, who hung out at my shop on a few occasions, a very cool dude. He drove a VW bus, I'd say early 1970s. First time he came in he had a pretty young gal with him. She didn't leave the bus, seemed she spent the time looking at the mirror and make-up.

Yes, if only we could get a new truck with a 230 and a 3 speed. Those damn 5.3s are such junk.

I like the mechanics of the new trucks, but I hate the wrapper.

They lack charm, and are over styled

I like this one with Hoss with family and friends for 65 Chevys

Very cool commercial. Something about the Corvette and VC doesn't fit

Nice line of cars
