440 Cubes "Gift Wrapped" ad... You know where to find a better copy?

And here's just one of many examples of the airbrushers at work. Notice how the runner's bumper becomes elastomeric when it became an available option. ;D

I won't make you wait on purpose but it looks like I will have to find the originals.  The ones I have in the garage I had blown up and they don't fit in my scanner.  I kind of forgot about that little detail.

And the old 1971 T/A ad. A lot of people were chasing this car down. While there were a few mules at Chrysler for the 1971 version, the reports were that they were nowhere near completed cars. Whther this is true or not, I cannot say, but the 1971 yellow T/A...well have a peek.



And a 1970 T/A used in the black and white advertising campaign. Check all aspects of the car - wheel orientation, raindrops, etc. The airbrushers were good. No photochopping in those days.

Are these photocopier blow ups? Or something done at home with paintshop or such? A professional blow up is great. Tack marks, nail holes, etc are no problem.

Found them.  Okay, here is what I have now that the two are together.  Both are the same ad it's just that one is colour and the other is b&w.  My original colour is not original.  After I took it out of the envelope, I see it is a repro.  The b&w is original.  I scanned the colour one for you to see but I can't post it here yet.  I need to put it up at a host first.

ARGGHHHH!!!!!!!


EDIT - check your PMs. I sent you my email addresses if you don't have a host server.

What are the deficiencies in the repo color version? Is it a painfully obvious copy? While its so very easy to make a black and white from a color the reverse is a bit trickier. ;D

Ghoste

Okay, here it is.  This is a very poor scan but I was trying to get it done quickly.  My copy is better than this.


6pkrunner

Wow!!! Nope ain't got that'a one!!! My Ken Adian supply is a tad remiss.

Ghoste

Well I'm in awe.  I won't count it as a snatched the pebble from your hand moment but I'm still impressed to have one you don't.

6pkrunner

Every once in a while Ghoste something will jump up and nail ya! ;D As with the Mopars we drive, never say never and never say "I've got them all."

Mike has been stumped!     ;) :o

Im sure you have the Lee Trevino ad and the "Show-Off" ad

Heres the Lee Trevino one....at least they could have airbrushed his band-aid!  ::)

And why are those taillights on in the daytime?
I have a reproduction of that ad but I'd sure like to find an original.

6pkrunner

I've got that one. There is also one with Lee and a 1971 Charger that I do not have. >:( ;D

Got the "Show off" as well?  Mike?  If not I can scan a quick copy.

I dont think the lights are on.....just a reflection

and a few others, while not hen's teeth aren't seen everywhere




Ghoste

That's three I don't have.  I think I have a different version of the second one and I've been looking for the Show Off one for twenty years without luck.
