“If you had to compete with the three biggest car companies in America what would you do?”

Yesterday we featured toy cars, today we have a “real” vehicle. Our Friday Daily 70s Spot is a humorous commercial for American Motors’ Gremlin. Spot aired in November of 1970 – the first year of Gremlin production.

*UPDATE: The actor driving the vehicle appears to be Joseph V. Perry.

  1. I think the actor in the Gremlin is Joseph V. Perry. He guest-starred in a lot of 70s sitcoms, most notably as a cook in the “long johns” episode of M*A*S*H.

    • Thanks. I’ll check it out. I recognized his face but didn’t have a name.
