Cool video but I had to ignore those 1960's & 1970's Mustangs being built and that music.... 🙄 🙄

Three things stood out:

- @ 10:18, that Pontiac dealer's 1959 promotion is a ONE-year supply of Kleenex..??   Really??   Seems pretty lame.   Who cares about a $1.89 incentive! 🤔 🤨 

- @ 11:24, that's a modern shot of 1/25 promo models. 😀 

- (shown 3 times), being the 1959 Cadillac fan that I am....  I'm baffled by those parked Cadillacs with their "rears raised."  And yes, I noticed those thick rubber lower front bumper protectors. 😏 😉 😏
