Ahhhh, the 1970 Pinto. But before we get to the car itself let's look at the beginning of the ad. Meet the Pinto, just born. From where, the ground? Do little horses now pop up from the ground after they hatch? Also, in a one minute ad for your new car having the first 20 seconds only showing Seabiscuit and amber waves could be a dodgy plan. But look at it. Pinto, the new little carefree car from Ford. As carefree as you can be trying to claw your way out of a burning vehicle after backing into a pole. And while we're on the topic, move the horsie back, one swift kick to the back bumper and he's crispy critters. It's got a wide stance which gives it that dumpy can-of-Spam-on-wheels look Ford must have been striving for. This car just wants to run and run and run. So will you, but don't run too far before the stop drop and roll part of your 1970 Pinto test-drive.
Time for Jersey City, After Dark
