Thank you for posting! That is me driving the T-bird at the 1:03 point of the commercial. Hours of filming on Mulholland Dr in LA despite the few seconds in the clip. Produced by Energy Productions in 1988. I never got to see the finished commercial until your posting.

Wow, the dialog at just that part in the commercial provided quite a few yuks for me and my friend back in the 80s, this is like communicating to royalty for me. Bravo, sir!

I didn't know there was a commercial! We got the original set as well as the second series in 1996 or so. I am currently giving them a thorough cleaning. Thank you for posting.

I went to a car shop before and the owner had these with the shelf on the wall. I liked them when I saw them. I been trying to find these for a display for my room. Does anybody know where I can buy the cars with the shelf ?
