I Haven't watched it today (but I'm sure that I will), but I seem to remember seeing the grill of a Dodge. (possibly a Coronet?)

I'll check it out during the race and get back to you.

You probably know this, but do you remember what movie that scene is lifted from?

Re: commercial

OK, Ward... I just watched it

I saw what I took to be a '69 GTO, a '68 Charger, a '68 Torino and the front fender, less headlite, of either a '56 or a '57 Plymouth.

But the way they have they carved up, it it really difficult to tell exactly, so I'm probably wrong.

Re: commercial

Its a take on the Mad Max movie. The commercial on the race today was a longer version of the one they usually show. The short version is the one that usually is on and at the very beginning at the front with the GTO was what I was guessing was an olsmobile.

I agree ... I thought the second car was an Olds.

Wow! What a cool post! I thought that commercial was hysterical. I can't help you with an answer, but I think it's great that you pay that much attention!

Re: commercial

well in NASCAR these days every car looks the same. So you got to have some fun by identifying cars in movies &commercials & stuff. I always get a kick out of the movies from the 30s & 40s and the way the cars looked back then.
