Default Budweiser Commercial

This may have been posted, but anyone see the Bud commercial with Jr and the red C3? Looks like an 1973 automatic L-48 coupe.

Don't think it's a '72 - For sure a rear bumper car. Here's why I think a '73:
1. Rear bumpers
2. Tach - redline 5300 rpm - has to be L-48
3. No clear shot of front bumpers
4. Fron fender shot looks like post '72 fenders.

:iagree: it is a 73.

At 12-13 seconds into the clip you can see the car from the front as it is coming at you. It shows a painted front bumper and a raised dome hood like a 73.

What a great commercial. I am watching for the NAPA commercial with a frosted over car. I was at the hotel in New Smyrna , FL when they were shooting it, a few weeks ago.
