Cunningham 1950 LeMans entry, a series 61 Cadillac



obviously an odd choice for a sports car race, but the only way to get the choice Cadillac engine for racing in Le Mans where they weren't allowing a mix of engines from Cadillac and cars from Ford.

Averaging only 8 miles an hour slower than the winner, and placing 10th, it was a surprise to everyone I believe

why did America go to the moon? You know what we got? Bored. So we left. We got a car up there, we left the keys in it. You know why? Because we're the only ones going back up there. That's why. (transcript from this commercial, I find it funny)

Imagine Dennis Leary being the spokesman instead... that would be even funnier

and Kim Fires back that this was obnoxious... maybe. Certainly could be, or it was bold and cutting and maybe tongue in cheek humor... I certainly don't know... but you'll love the Ford reply!



Thank you Kim!
