Google searching for something else, and stumbled on to this 1969 ad.

Flame Suit on!!

So much odd about this ad: why did he land so long? Why did they leave the glider sitting
there? Are they going for a rope to tow it back? Who will walk the wing: the guy that landed
long, or the crew that forgot the rope? And was that really a hot, sporty car in 1969? I don't
think so!

Chuckle..Why would you want to diss any car comparing it with a 2-33? Well maybe a Yugo.

That may have been filmed in Sedona AZ.
If I landed and that Fox ran up to me in that new car, I'd leave too!
First stop a liquor store and then a hotel room.
