A Seattle TV station?

Michelob beer add with John Forsyth, the DR. Rader show on "parents", and I couldn't tell what kind of double oven range is in the mothers day card commercial.
Maybe a Modern Maid? I couldn't tell the vintage grandma stove either.
1982 Chevy Cavaliers had manual trans. shift cable problems, and their value added standard features had to be omitted to increase sales with a lower base price by 1983. Cadavers.
Ah yes, one of my young adult idols, Lee Iacoca. Smart man, Fords loss if you ask me. I've read his books.
The Falklands war cost Britain way more than Thatcher saved on budget cuts, including the Royal Navy patrol cut back in the south Atlantic which led to it.
Not only in money, but also Lives.

She sounds like Stella from The movie Foul Play. Nobody's gonna mess with Stella unless Stella wants to be messed! She packed brass knuckles in her purse, quite the librarian.

David,

Well, Thatcher came off that way, but was in no way running things.
"The big bankers and corporate magnates" got their tax cuts when they convinced her the pound was on the slide in favor of Labour. She even convinced the Labour party voters it was.
Low and behold, following the winter of discontent, the actual one hit Britain.
First the Falklands war, and then even more unemployment. When Maggie left office, there were more on gyro assistance than in 1980.
Sort of like what we saw here after the 2004 election.

David,

Oh, ok. Was Stella the bishops assistant? Maybe it his her. She was not a nice person.
Now my favorite scene: "bang bang Kojac"

The cartoon depictions in the 70s.....  Something like this, and the Pink Panther at the laundromat.  It was great !

You know I have to watch that now, right?

David,

I watched it last week. I forget which channel. IFC, Sundance, TMC, TBS, one of them.

Yes, the 70's

were great in fact.
Hoovers, Eurekas, Chevelles, Chargers, Cordobas, Monte Carlos, Torinos, Cutlass Supremes, Century's Regals, Grand Prix's, LTD's, and you could go down the street and buy a Mercury.
All made mostly of metal too. US metal at that.
Then there were the lowly Pacer, Gremlin, Pinto and Vega, and Plymouth Duster, and Volare'.

Fun times?

Some. I was already working, so fun came second.
Had my first heart break in '78. Then saw Foul Play, and was ready to take a chance again. LOL.
Fine Corinthian pleather.

Eureka used one of the largest American advertising agencies in the late 1960's and through the 1970's: Young and Rubicam. Y&R produced many animated commercials for Eureka. The earliest one I remember was for the 1970 Eureka Vanguard upright with a Soldier and Seargeant preparing for an attack deep down in a forest of carpet fibres!

Brian,

Thank's, that's very interesting to me. I have several of Van & Fitzpatrick's Pontiac watercolor magazine full page ad's. Also one 1974 Opel Commodore negotiating the haute' corniche' above Monaco.
