Major 2005 Mustang TV event
For those that just missed it here is what happened: NBC's program American Dreams had their son, a marine, who was MIA, suddenly return home. During the program a 1967 Mustang ad shows up on a Bus and on the back of a magazine. Then Dad gives his son a 1967 GT to honor his son who was wounded. Ford also runs the Steve McQueen Cornfield ad. It's Mustang everywhere night.
After all this emotion, and it was a tear jerker, the best then comes: You see modern day Marines arriving at an airport in a Ford ad, the mom drives her son home in a new Five Hundred, Dad shows up in a 69(?) fastback and gives the young marine a new 2005. All are in tears by now, including you the watcher.
Then there is a short notice that somewhere it is on the Ford web site. Well I just happened to have the entire thing, 1 hour, on VHS tape since my son and I were messing with some home project until my wife alerted me 1/2 way thru the program.
I could convert the entire hour into an avi, will be a project tho.
