After seeing the '69 Torino ad the other day, we figured maybe all the ads of that era had music a thousand times lamer than the rock-und-roll those dope-addled freaks of the time were listening to. Oh, sure, we're not expecting the Mothers of Invention or the Stooges, but you'd think some buzz would maybe sneak in to a car-related ad soundtrack here or there. And it did! This 1970 24 Hours of Le Mans Aurora slot car set (with lights! and drifting!) ad gets the job done.
