Description of Ford Mustang taken from Wikipedia "The first-generation Ford Mustang was manufactured by the Ford Motor Company from April 1964 until 1973. The introduction of the Mustang created a new class of automobile known as the pony car. The Mustang’s styling, with its long hood and short deck, proved wildly popular and inspired a host of imitators. It was initially introduced as a hardtop and convertible with the fastback version put on sale the following year. At the time of its introduction, the Mustang, sharing its underpinnings with the Falcon, was slotted into a compact car segment."

I graduated High School in 1975 and remember all of these cars. Wish I had some of them now.

[@kidmack3556]

I'm a model builder/sculpter and I came here to see what the advertisements had to say about the brand new 1975 design. I have a LTD 4dr sedan in 1/25 scale resin, and want to build it as a '76 Manganese Metallic Brown with medium brown or "British Bridle Brown" leather interior, tinted windows, Craig stereo with Jensen speakers (to blast The Crusader's Those Southern Knights) and a "President Ford" Bicentennial Star window decal for the backlight.

[@seand2711]

My God that LTD Landau was GORGEOUS.

[@michaeldickens7493]

Yes it was

[@michaeldickens7493]

Lol commercials used to be so cool

[@highplainsdrifter699]

The UK spec 2.8 mk 1 ford Granada was a terrific looking car back in the mid 70s 👍

[@paulparoma]

The Euro Granada was almost in the luxury segment by the local standards of the day, very different from its US namesake.

[@MillerMeteor74]

Back in those days we knew someone who bought a new `75 or `76 Granada. My father drove it once and hated it. It had the 4 speed stick shift, and my dad said that when he put it in third he smashed his knuckles on the dash every time. But at the time we had a new Chrysler Town & Country and a `67 Imperial, and my dad was used to those cars.

I quess you've never heard of Lincoln.

@@davidtaylor4053 a Ford by any other name? No, you're right, there were others, Lincolns, Mercurys, Caddys and others. Was thinking more of the era, but added the brand.

3:42 sits as close the edge as possible so car seat looks bigger. Door hits her butt when she closes it. LOL

[@jamessawyer8889]

Those full size Ford's, what tanks, but that's what we loved driving, considering that the LTD Landau & Grand Marquis Broughams were twins, just look at the 4 door hardtop, plus in that ad for the Mustang, James Hampton who played on F Troop recently passed away

[@SpockvsMcCoy]

The Marquis had a longer 124 inch wheelbase (LTD had the shorter 121 inch wheelbase). Otherwise much of the inner body construction was the same.

[@socalltd]

@@SpockvsMcCoy The same year Continental was a 127 inch wheelbase in the same A body as the LTD and Marquis.

[@SpockvsMcCoy]

@@socalltd There was some component sharing among Ford, Mercury, and Lincoln....but the Lincoln Continental has longer rear doors than the other two so it is more dissimilar. The biggest structural difference between the LTD and the Marquis was that the Mercury had a longer cowl to front axle ratio (longer front fenders and hood) even though the greenhouse is similar.

[@socalltd]

@@SpockvsMcCoy True about the greenhouse, slight dimension differences in sheet metal and distinct touches to each model. Ford did all this for the LTD, T bird, Mk III - IV, Marquis and Conti in the A body in the 3 wheelbases allowing the same engines, brakes components and suspension parts sharing up to 78 or 79 depending on model before being downsized.

[@SpockvsMcCoy]

@@socalltd Both GM and Chrysler did the same thing with their full-size cars of that era. However, the 1972 to 1976 Thunderbirds and Continental Mark IVs used the exact same wheelbase...saving money on separate tooling. The 1968-1971 Continental Mark III used the wheelbase of the 1967-1971 Thunderbird 4-Door sedan. A mechanic told me several years ago that those Lincolns have massive rubber body mounts compared to the cheaper Mercury and Ford. Also, Lincolns used more sound deadening and the upholstery is thicker with the interior trim being more weighty and of higher quality.

[@carlos.a.vcarvajal6119]

Can somebody remember... how many gallons per mile spent the Landau.....

[@charlesmcginness7214]

Anybody that thinks a Granada looks like a Seville needs to visit their optometrist and that’s as nice as I can say it.

[@michaeldickens7493]

Yeah but it was close to the Versailles

[@charlesmcginness7214]

@@michaeldickens7493 The Versailles was just a dressed up Granada for sure.

[@chrishickory7907]

2:13 Is the lady who says "Someone put a poodle in our Cadillac" one of the mothers from Willy Wonka (1971)?

[@kidmack3556]

I think you're right, at first I thought it was the late great Alice "Esmerelda" Ghostley. But it is Nora "Mike Teevee's Mom" Denney.

[@jeffm68]

My dad bought my mother a Granada in 1976. It broke down while she was driving me to school. In 1976. At Ford, Quality is Job One.

[@gregoryp2859]

My dad bought a 'brand new 77 Volare. It blew the differential on the way home from the dealership. No American automaker was building quality in those days.

[@kidmack3556]

It wasn't the workers, it was the cheap synthetic materials provided by the ownership. Never put the blame on the American workforce. We were the best in the world and still are, given proper materials and a living wage. Take a look at our armaments industries...it's never missed a beat.

[@kidmack3556]

@JM We had one too. Green on Green 4dr. My step dad drove it to work every week day and all over the Bay Area and wine country sight seeing on the weekends. Traded it in at Verducci Ford for (another green on green) custom econovan in 1978 Which was driven cross country in the Summer of 1980, and I am pretty sure he had that at least 5 or 6 years as his daily driver going from suburban Maryland to Walter Reed.

[@SpockvsMcCoy]

Ronnie Schell and Leon Askin (Herr General Burkhalter from Hogan's Heroes)!!!

[@judethaddaeus9742]

It’s hilarious to me that Ford was pitching the Granada as “outselling all other ‘75 newcomers combined.” That list was: Skyhawk, Monza, Cordoba, Bobcat, Monarch, Starfire, and Astre. Only one of those models was in the same basic price/size class, and it was the Granada’s own Mercury companion. And they must have dropped this particular angle by April or May of ‘75 because once the AMC Pacer launched in March, and the Seville in May, it wasn’t true anymore.

[@Star-fc4ni]

The Mustang ll commercial is filmed in front of DR Robert Neville aka Charlton Heston apartment in his starring role 'Omega Man film. Also the fountaun was used in the tv show friends. Back lot of the Warner Bros Ranch.

[@johncombs6543]

1975 was a difficult economic year. And first year for unleaded gasoline. Plus cars went up almost $1,000 in price because of all of the safety and emissions requirements. A lot of those cars a lot of engine problems because of going to unleaded. Sad. Because some were really amazing looking.

[@kidmack3556]

It's because we were asked to be more energy cautious. When I traveled to Los Angeles a few years back after not traveling at all for a few years because of the TSA ordering me to strip down all the time, whilst demanding to see my "Papers?" in German accents, I was amazed to see how clear the air is down there now. I could actually see Mt.Wilson from Colorado Blvd! In the mid 1980's when I was going to school down there, all I could see is what looked like a very high concrete wall. I'm not sure how important those early regulations on emissions affected the present day results, but I am proud that as a united nation, we tried.

[@pwrfl2357]

4:52 want that car!!

[@pjimmbojimmbo1990]

Having General Burkhaulter, with Klink's Monocle... I can't see how anyone with even the Slightest Vision could mistake a Granada for a Seville. I have seen them together, they do not look alike, except both are Painted

[@lestersabados1306]

My late grandfather had a 76 Granada ghia. Fake wood on the Landau roof with lights.

[@lestersabados1306]

We used to say the MPG on the cars in the junkyard meant more parts to grab.

[@ShakespeareCafe]

1:30 the Cancel Club would blow a gasket at this commercial not the least of which they mention American built cars, never mind the bad imitations

[@kamaldakdduk7490]

What was Cowboy Mike's mom doing in a Ford commercial

[@slashmaster2]

Why is it car companies now can't come up with anything good?

[@ILC-eo6vk]

.....because most American auto companies have incompetent people working for them. They can't even come up with original names for new models, so they use classic badging on them🤦‍♂️. I'm done with American made cars and trucks.

[@paulparoma]

@@ILC-eo6vk That and all the endless regulations.

In todays money that 1975 Cadillac Seville would $65,567.36!

[@antera77]

"in HD 1080p" Again, a nice conversion of these vintage ads for KZbin. And not stretching their original 4:3 aspect ratio to 16:9. However: 1 Uploading 250-330 line video as 1080p, does not make it 1080p 2 Unless these ads are taken from film stock, there is no way they have anywhere near 1080 horizontal line resolution. They definitely don't look it. Most likely these ads are from videotape, like Sony U-matic, which had a resolution of 250 to 330 horizontal lines. I don't know of any TV advertising storage formats in 1975 that had anywhere near 1080 line resolution. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/U-matic#Development

Granada top

[@paulparoma]

The Granada looked nothing like the Seville and wasn't even close as a car. The Seville was a seriously engineered luxury automobile, while the Granada was just an inexpensive, undistinguished car for the masses.

[@kidmack3556]

Those Sevilles were on almost every TV show at some point. Too bad none of the scale model car companies added it to their lineups

[@paulparoma]

@@kidmack3556 I remember that, but I am not a scale-model connoisseur (I only have one, and it's of my own car).

[@kidmack3556]

@@paulparoma The Seville always reminded me of those fedoras that fashionable women were wearing then. You remember them? Small, downturned brim front and back which looked exactly like the Seville's profile. Isabelle Adjani wore one in "The Driver" (1978) Ryan O'Neal. [Self Edit] I'm sorry, I just looked at a still of Isabelle's hat, I remembered wrong... The hats that I was thinking of were worn by Charlie's Angels, especially Cheryl Ladd and Shelly Hack.

[@paulparoma]

@@kidmack3556 I remember that time very well. Too bad women don't wear hats too often nowadays. All grace and elegance have been erased from our world, and replaced with aggressive vulgarity. Isabelle Adjani is one of my favorite actresses. She is a little crazy (my Paris friend knows her), but very talented and extremely feminine. She was a an unexpected delight in "Ishtar," which was a great movie that fell victim to Hollywood politics.

[@kidmack3556]

@@paulparoma So, you know what I mean, and you know who she is... EXCELLENT! I loved her in The Driver. Ishtar and Best Defense are two films that I would like to see, but as you said, were buttonholed as bad, bad bad. Yes, I have to agree with you.

[@danschreffler1280]

Hilarious how they DO NOT mention performance. Granada had a whopping 72HP by this point. Big slow cars so they talk about the fake woodgrain dash.

[@kidmack3556]

Even being the featured cars of choice of Charlie's Angels couldn't save them. Of course those cars and the new 55mph speed limits were responses to the warnings for energy efficiency, and the smog. When I watch some of the vintage Dragnet or Police Story episodes from the 60's and 70's here on YT and look at those panoramas, I can understand why.
