Does anyone remember the "Gee, Dad, I'm just making it better!" AMC commercial from the '70's?
'Believe there was a blower stickin' through the hood of a Hornet or some such thing...

Yes, it was an ad for the Javelin. The father was screaming "You butchered it!". When asked what happened to the rear seat, the kid's reply... "useless weight at the drag strip".
If only today's car commercials were this good. The ad campaign closest being that witty was the "That thing got a Hemi" with the two goof balls in the Duster.
