A popular category on my website is the section that has vintage magazine ads for cars and trucks
that we now consider classics. People love these old ads for a variety of reasons.
They may own a 1964 Ford Mustang and want an advertisement showing their classic car. Perhaps they like to display the ad with their car at the vintage car shows that they attend. Maybe they had one of these spiffy little cars back in the 60′s as a new or used car and they dream of having one again.
Ads can be found for the antique cars and classic cars from every decade. The muscle cars of the 1960′s, beautiful old Dusenbergs, and cars we don’t even remember that were made. Sometimes it’s fun to visit sites with the old car ads to see the companies that started out on their own and then got gobbled up by the American “Big 3″. General Motors, Ford, and Chrysler bought out many small car companies.
The old trucks bring back all sorts of memories too. Some lucky people have a classic old truck and show them off at the car shows. Others remember that old work horse on a farm or ranch they worke on or they used on a job to deliver items to customers. I love the old truck designs especially the old Studebaker truck with it’s classic lines.
I’ve had customers purchase several of these old ads which they intended to frame and hang in their office or den. For whatever reasons, these old ads bring back fond memories of the car or truck that Mom and Dad had, the car we learned to drive in, or the first car we owned.
