Here's another classic commercial for Bert Weinman Ford with Linn Burton.

Bert Weinman - Your TV Ford Man - at 3535 N. Ashland Avenue. (Although if Bert Weinman is supposedly my *TV* Ford Man, how come we never see any commercials with him in them?

Here's a commercial for Dave Cory Ford - 6200 West Touhy Avenue next to the Leaning Tower in Niles - wait a sec, wasn't that King Datsun (Nissan)? Yep, they eventually moved there, but in the earlier days it was Dave Cory Ford I guess.

The spokesman is not "Dave Cory" but an actor - not sure what his name is but I've seen him in another commercial local to Rochester, New York on YouTube.

This aired on local Chicago TV early Saturday, September 20th 1980.
