Gone are the good old days when you could slide across the seat and snuggle your love. 😢

The ‘60 Fords still look fresh. Style leaders that year for sure. I love these commercials!

My dad had a 64 Galaxy 500 for 12 years. It was never repaired once. It didn't even have a scratch. I wish I had one now.😁👍

Today's commercials you take the new family vehicle and run through the woods, mud holes, dust and dirt and who knows what, where and however. Thanks for the video and pride in the American dream. Dad had a Burgandy 1963 ford Galaxie 500XL,

My parents had a 1966 Galaxie 500 XL with all the bells and whistles including factory air and a monster 390 V8 She was a beautiful performer.

Love seeing the old cars and fresh new highways with no road damage and pot holes.😎🇺🇸

Pure class, from the cars and the models. Thats missing these days.

Boy I tell you what no matter your wallet size there was always something classy to drive for everyone back then !

Life in the early 60s, I miss it so much.😌

Wow so classic and beautiful 😻

That 1960 Ford was an especially pretty car.

The musical scores to these are outstanding. They perfectly match the visuals and narration.

The 1960's, when cars were inexpensive and gas was about 25 cents per gallon. I could still get gas for 29 cents a gallon in Maryland, until the end of 1973. The oil embargo started in October of 1973, and there was a gas shortage and prices went up.

never even heard of the starliner or sunliner (convertable) 1960-61. interesting note, no seat belts, seems unimaginable today.

My first car….red 61 Galaxy!

I owned a 1960 Ford Fairlane but the 1961 Ford is definitely better looking.

Love the styling !

I sure miss those days of cheap gas

All the 352/360hp cars got electric windshield wipers (no vacuum). To avoid passing too close to the redesigned exhaust manifolds, brake lines were routed across the top rear of the lower radiator support instead of across the cross member beneath the engine.

Una maravilla. Gracias por compartir.

"Seats softer then your bed of ferns." When I was much younger, we had a 61 Country Squire and a 62 Galaxie 2 door. Everyone said that about the seats. Well, maybe not. But they were great cars!

In the 1980s PBS had a Travelogue Show called "America With the Top Down" where a couple of guys drove a Early 1960s Ford Sunliner Convertible from the Upper Midwest to the Lower tip of Texas by the Mexico boarder. One of the guys in the cast joked, "Since we're doing this for PBS, we should have used a Volvo!"

They did a good job matching the sky's color with the starliner

The gal is wearing a full-length mink coat, but they're driving a Galaxie? Not even Henry Ford II was that loyal.

Love it

Jeez... All the cars had "Thunderbird heritage". Might as well buy a Thunderbird...

BTW the wheel covers were referred to as Sundial wheel covers

We had that car, in black, growing up

My dad had a '64 Galaxy 500. I believe it was Oriental Yellow or Bright Orange with white interior.

I am an old geezer and when I was very young my mom drove a brand new 1961 Ford Country Squire. White exterior and I think a red interior. Of course, the (wood) plastic appliqué which fooled no one. Absolutely no one. I also seem to remember the ignition switch to start the car was on the left side of the steering wheel which seemed very awkward. #memories

back before commercials were in color and didn't make you sick to watch them and the cars actually had comfortable seats in them

MAD ison Avenue. Lovely

Car commercials sure have changed. All they show now days is the APR available..

I wouldn’t mind a retro Ford Galaxy retro EV

I heard someplace that the Ford Falcon was never advertised, I'm writing this before watching the video.

The 61 Fords had Cadillac front end style.

This commercial gives me Bewitched vibes. Although Bewitched featured really nice Chevys in their episodes.

Ah yes a man in his car is a beautiful thing

Compared to a 1960 Chevy or Plymouth that Starliner looked 5 years ahead of its time.

The one I saw in the junk yard didn`t look that fresh .

Rear wheel drive on these icy and snowy roads is not very safe!

I want these music soundtrack. Does anyone know the names of all of them. In particular the one for the 1961 Ford Galaxie. 4.02 to 5.07

" A car to love a woman to drive. " Scorpions

First commercial sounds like it might have been narrated by Herb Edelman.

ahhhhhhh,,,long before trumpers

I'm not that old, born in the 2000s. But after all I find the cars of the past very nice, even more nicer than cars of now. Sadly that they don't make these cars anymore.... Does anybody know the song name between 2:15 and 2:50?

The cars looks better and the girls also

What’s the name of the piece of music?

No shoulder straps or seat belts back then? Just askin'.

The narration at 9:00 on sounds like Jack Webb 🤷‍♀️🆗

#CarDrivingFromSpecificAccuracy!

I hope y’all will reply to this a friend of papa mama and I had a green ‘ 72 Galaxie her name was Miss Emma she lived across the street from us when we were renting a house before we had our own house

Is that coolant or tranny fluid pour into out of that Ford?

I long for the days when America was a decent place to be...

I was disappointed that all the Fords were shown in boring white. With all the glorious colors that were available why didn’t they show them in those? The chrome would’ve really stood out then…and the car, especially when photographed in the snow.

"The Starliner resembles no other car." Um, looks a lot like a 1960 Impala...

Notice how they say it's a car for man! 🙄

I grew up in this era... At the time, a new model came out every yr.. Today, most models change every 5 or 6 yrs. Back then every yr was distictive from the last.. Even if it sold extremely well new models took its place... They had style & class . Not like todays cookie cutter european design that often makes it hard to tell one make from another... Now the industry that was the backbone of our economy is made in Mexico. Here's some irony for ya... The Toyota Tundra is more American than Chevy, Dodge, Ford.. 70% of the Tundra is made here. While 70% of all other trucks are made in Mexico. Remember NAFTA ? You can thank Bill Clinton for destroying our auto industry .. And our government for destroying our manufacturing & industrial base for profits they make in China. We pay 22% tariffs for American goods sold in China. They pay 2%. Why ? Because it made our politicians & walstreet disgustingly rich while the middle class disappeared . Now both parents have to work just to make ends meet.. Their combined wages are 30 yrs behind the cost of living... American knowhow & production turned into American greed .

I didn't like those cars,the seats were terrible, our neighbors had a Country Squire and the vinyl stuck to you in the summer and my Dad had a Galaxie 500 and the nylon seats scratched and itched when you wore shorts....

These seem kind of corny. Now they just drive the cars like bats out of hell to advertise them.

That 1960 Ford Starliner commercial... How Lame! Great (nice) car though, but the music and the quality of the video... really?!

The women and the tiger were way more beautiful than the cars.

Very primitive cars with rear wheel drive, leaf springs, stiff rear axle, drum brakes, diagonal tyres and bad safety.

Leaf-springs at the rear! Terrible, and typical Ford! Just like on an old, horse drawn carriage from the 19th century!

In this era. No one was concerned about gender. It’s male or female.

Commercials sucked back then. Lol
