Wally & The Beaver Sell 1960 Fords (Leave It To Beaver)
Leading into the 1950s, Ford, along with many other top of the market car manufacturers were capitalizing on the post war boom. Many new advancements in technology and products were being developed during this time that allowed for cars going into the future to have features never seen before or features that were not normal until now. The automatic window, for example, was a new feature that made Americans see their current cars as outdated and technologically behind. The 1960s were one of the best eras for the production of cars, as the war between Ford and Chevrolet heated up and produced some of the most classic and recognizable cars in America still to this day.

The mainstream full-sized Ford line of cars from 1960 to 1964 was now complemented by a variety of other Fords, including the Thunderbird and compact Falcon, and from 1962 the midsized Fairlane. So the mainline car grew even more, now riding on a 119 in (3023 mm) wheelbase. The engines were carried over from the 1959 Ford, as was the basic chassis design, but the sheetmetal was modern. The retracting Skyliner hardtop was gone, though the Sunliner convertible remained, and the Fairlane name would last only two years before migrating to a new midsize model. {TAKEN FROM WKI}

=============================
Description of Ford Mustang "The first-generation Ford Mustang was manufactured by the Ford Motor Company from April 1964 until 1973. The introduction of the Mustang created a new class of automobiles known as the pony car. The Mustang’s styling, with its long hood and short deck, proved wildly popular and inspired a host of imitators. It was initially introduced as a hardtop and convertible with the fastback version put on sale the following year. At the time of its introduction, the Mustang, sharing its underpinnings with the Falcon, was slotted into a compact car segment."



Obviously, I do not own this content. I repost it as an ongoing museum and tribute, a testament to the greatest generation in automobile manufacturing history, EVER.

I was 18 years old in 1969 working at a Ford dealer washing cars. One day a transport pulled in with a whole load of 1969 mustang Mach 1s My jaw dropped to the ground and everybody in the showroom came out to look at new design Mustang . What an exciting time.

Could've had the entire truck load for about $13, 000.
Rest in peace, Wally.

That Trucking Company was HADLEY AUTO TRANSPORT Headquartered in SANTA ANA CA.
They were in business from 1931-2007 with Teminals in California, Arizona, New Mexico & Texas.
It was a great Company to work for, Bill Hadley took the reins from his Dad in 1957, he loved his drivers.
Sadly in December of 2006 HADLEY lost the Chrysler traffic & on April 1 2007 lost the Ford traffic to non-union carriers,
the Company shut down for good.
I was 1 of their drivers in Northern

In 1960: “How come they got so many kinds of Ford cars?”. In 2022: “How come they don’t have any Ford cars?”

Kind of amazing to see them advertising Ford Motor Company especially when their show mostly featured Plymouth or other Chrysler Corporation automobiles. Thanks for posting this! 😃

Appreciate the effort in capturing a very rare television clip. I am both a fan of LITB as well as old auto commercials! Still watching the Beaver reruns. Now if we can see Eddie Haskell talking about Chevys!!

What a riot that you'd see an ad for Ford with Wally & the Beaver, it's even more hilarious that the ad was done on Colonial Street at Universal Studios with the Munsters house right behind them, I'm sure they found something as a showroom on the backlot, you'll have to find more of these rare ads, I get a kick out of these

For several years, my friend David and I watched Leave it to Beaver before school. The show ended at 8:55 and school started at 9:00am. Lucky for us, the school was right behind our houses. We always arrived 30 seconds before the bell rang.

I’ve been a LITB fan for decades, but this is the first time I’ve seen Tony Dow and Jerry Mathers playing their characters, filmed in color. Swell! Plenty of color stills out there, so I wonder if there’s more film like this.

Fun Fact: In the first season of LTB, the Cleavers owned a White 1957 Ford, the same exact car Janet Leigh drove in Pycho.

Awesome commercial! I'll never forget a particular visit to my aunt and uncle's when I was eight...they'd just gotten a new '60 Ford Galaxie and we followed my uncle out to look it over in the car port...he waved his hands over it in a 'Vanna White' motion and proclaimed "THIS is the most beautiful car in the world!"

If I was watching this advertisement in 1960, Wally and Beaver would convince me to buy a new Ford.

Fun Fact - when Beaver turned 16 he went out and bought a NEW 1964 GTO for himself ! I have new respect for the Beav ! Good Move ! Bet he wishes he still had that one !
