Subject:      Re: 1968 in print and TV ads

Another little problem. If this is really a "collection," as the ad states,
then the "Italian roadster or LeMans racer or the British Limousine" may be
presumed in excellent condition. They would then, of course, be worth many
times what the humble VW bus is worth. You can find this kind of bus, 1968
or 1972 or whatever, all over the place for a few thou. Note, however, the
vague language...

Maybe by Italian roadster they mean a 1979 Fiat with a 1978 engine in it.
The "LeMans racer" could be a Pontiac LeMans, and the "British Limousine" a
1960 Hillman Minx. Wait a minute, even that would cost more than the van. A
1980 XJ6 with a blown Chevy 350?  Visit this collection at your local Pick
'n Pull.

Fake advertising for a clueless public, from the folks who brought us the
ARM crisis.
