Was that Radar O'Reily that drove up in the 2nd SSP?

Anyone notice there was a console when they looked in the window and when they showed the cassette player it was a floor mount? Yea he sounded and looked like radar.

It was the actor who played Radar OReilly, Gary Burghoff.
As far as the commercials making sense in the seventies. .. a lot of toking back then. Just take a look at H.R. Pufnstuff if you don't believe me.
The whole thing was written during acid trips. LOL>

I know, I couldn't quite follow what those women were on about, either -- Was it worry over whether the car was sufficiently swanky or well optioned?
Note how the they were depicted - you could never get away with that today!

I think they would have sold a lot more cars if they had a giant bunny advertising them...

You know, I was looking at those cars (parts and driver on ebay) and noticed - does that SSP have GTX tail light covers?
And, uh, what's the deal with that HUGE ROCK in the driveway?
