I never in my life saw one like that before. They were always fixed in position on top or in the top third segment of the sign.....I bet it would have been a site to see one spinning, wish I'd see one in real life. And I worked for Chrysler too at the time....very neat sign. What part of the country were you in? Or was it more the City stores that had them?
Pittsburgh, PA. I remember the C-P and Dodge agencies on Baum Boulevard had those types of signs with the spinning logo. that changed sometime in the early '70s. There was also a Plymouth-only dealership in the city's Oakland section that also had the spinning logo.
I own a nicely restored 64 Sport Fury convertible 426-S white, white top & Bermuda Turquoise interior, pwr brakes, pwr steering, pwr windows, pwr top. Loaded car that sold for $4,265.00 May 1 1964.
I have the 1964 Fury Wagon in my garage that my parents bought new when I was an infant. It is the only one ever built with a 383 and 4-speed. That commercial doesn't do the cars justice.
do the car justice, I think this is one of Chrysler Plymouth Best Commercials doing the car a full Tribute.....and I watch a lot of car commercials....one of their best ever made, it's a "Ode" to the Plymouth, poetry
It's interesting that they showed the cars on the carrier without wheel covers. Realistic, but I'd have thought that the agency would have preferred the look with the snazzy hubcaps.
They were careful not to show practically anything but the grille of the (apparently percieved) black sheep of the family, that white Savoy on the back end of the trailer. Too bad; those looked just great too, even with no chrome and dog-dish hubcaps!
