Marketing Alliances

[Shakey]

Chris' thread about his Hang 10 prompted me to thinking about marketing alliances between some of the auto manufacturers and other companies over the course of time.

Obviously, the Hang 10 deal with Dodge, I had mentioned that we had a Levis' Jeep in our family for a few months and another one I recall was the "Denimachine" - a Ford Van that was a giveaway in a contest with Levis & Coke back in the mid '70's?

Can you think of anymore?

Post some pics if you can find them.

Father had a Bill Blass Lincoln for a couple of years.

His was blue.

The ony one that comes to mind quickly right now are the "Eddie Bauer" Fords.
I've got a 91 Eddie Bauer Exploder, they also had that option package available for most of their SUV line. I think they still do.

Kris Cross, that would be the backwards pant wearing edition, that would have to be a ghetto Pacer(). Orvis Editin Grand Cherokee('93-98?) & it seems there was possibly another AMC that was a Levis(or other clothing) edition. I remember seeing it on TV w/denim interior.

there was a levis Gremlin to go with the Levis Jeeps cause AMC owned both makes at that time...
