So, could we begin to dream of a future Celica/Supra 5.0? ;-)

Not a shobox, let's mention the "step-down" Hudson who influenced [ateupwithmotor.com] as well as the 1947 Studebaker.

Yeah but we have to remember in which context, the '49 Ford was developed. The "shoebox" Ford was developed at the time after WWII when Ford was in a bad financial situation. How Stuff Works got a interesting story about it at [auto.howstuffworks.com] We could wonder what if the "shoebox" Ford was a failure instead…

And one ad about the basic Charger for 1971 with the 318 ci V8 or the slant six.

Another Charger Topper vintage ad.

And on the other end of the spectrum, there the Charger Topper, a more family affordable version, since all 2-doors mid-size/intermediate Dodge was all named Charger for 1971 while Coronet remained to sedans and wagons.

Looks like the new "Melba Toast", approuved by Wooderson! ;-)

They switched to a car because they taught then kids would think then their parents' refrigerator would had been a time machine. I guess Zemeckis might had used another car if Mr. Delorean wasn't acquitted.

Don't forget the 1983 Thunderbird aka "Aerobird" and Cougar. They paved the way for the Taurus/Sable. [www.carlustblog.com]

It could be interesting to compare it with Canada. Since a couple of years some cable companies like Cocego, Shaw, Videotron, Rogers, etc... also offer phone services. [en.wikipedia.org]

Another moment in Today in Automotive History, Packard pulls out of Detroit and moved to South Bend for its final 2 years. [blog.hemmings.com]

As well as a bit of this, (pic from [www.carlustblog.com] )

Well, if a mash-up crossover isn't possible. It could had been perfect for a double feature presentation. ;-) Picture from [www.doublefeatureshow.com]

Speaking of Vanishing Point, someone did a "mash-up", a kind of edited video of Vanishing Point with Death Proof resulting a interesting crossover.

And on a off-topic note, I did some attempts to do some Challenger sketches but I wasn't so lucky. And let's repost that commercial then Jalopnik mentionned a long while ago. ;-) [jalopnik.com]

And btw, a while ago, someone did a "fancommercial"; a fanfilm who combined stock footage from Vanishing Point and the 2008 Challenger who was mentionned on Autoblog [www.autoblog.com]

Cool test-drive of the Challenger :-) When I check that article about the proposed 1975 Barracuda, a car that never was. [www.popularhotrodding.com] I wondered if there might be some lost pictures of clay models of a proposed 1975 Challenger? I already mentionned in another post, a sketch of a "what if?" post-1974…

Comment of the day! :-)

I spotted on Youtube a French vintage Cressida ad who was broadcasted in Quebec, Canada.

That ad was a gift from the guys of National Lampoon, there more infos about this spoof ad at [adland.tv]
