That is way cool, I have to wonder who would have an old 8 or 16mm Movie Film in B&W and no sound from the Day the first loads left Hamilton, the Photographer even got in the U.S. Customs view Office! And then someone had to copy them to CD or some other modern media.
This is quite Historic, I always love seeing Brand New Cars like that, it confims my suspicions that most or all of the '64 Imports had the really neat "DISHED" Head light Doors we just talked about yesterday.
My Dad's Imported late '64 Daytona Hardtop did have them, and it is possible that the same vendor produced some used on late '64 U.S. Cars and for sure early '65's, but that is hard to verify.
It is interesting however, that the White Commander 6, 4 Door that they OK's for delivery did not have ANY headlight Doors!
I have never seen or even heard of this Video before.Last edited by StudeRich; 02-13-2013, 01:01 PM.StudeRich

'Way cool, indeed; thanks.
'Sure had a lot of snow...and those guys had to really have "a pair" to be backing new cars up those ramps with things so potentially slippery. Whew! BPWe've got to quit saying, "How stupid can you be?" Too many people are taking it as a challenge.

I like how the guy in the suit scrawls writing all over the driver's side of the windshield right before someone is supposed to drive the car away. I also agree with Bob about backing the cars onto the trailer. That would be scary as h*** to do even under ideal weather conditions, let alone winter time.
