Classic Ads: 1966 Dodge Rebellion

There's a lot in here that Dodge would probably like to forget. Bigger big cars! Bigger small cars! Bigger everything! Women brandishing guns in a car ad and talking about how swingers are hip to Dodge. What are we rebelling against? Boring cars, apparently.

Fight boredom by threatening someone with a relic of the Civil War. Sprawl all over a car hood in provocative poses. Then throw some money at your neighborhood Dodge dealer and be awesome until OPEC takes away all our nice things.

Classic Ads: 1966 Dodge D-Series Camper Special

In the mid-1960s Detroit truck manufacturers found a way to capitalize on the American pastime of camping, with pickups that were designed to pull double duty hauling cab-over campers. Ford had an F-Series Camper Special, Chevy had a C/K Camper Special (or Custom Camper) and Dodge also offered a D-Series Camper Special. Now outdoorsmen could go do manly things like hunting without dragging the whole family along in the station wagon with a trailer.
