★★★★★ · Well done film · ERD · 2005-10-13
The film is very done well . Wonder where you can now find a service station that can give you such excellent service, speed, courtesy, and a decent bill?
★★★★ · Service Technician · ServiceTech · 2010-08-15
The service technician is Eric Fleming of "Rawhide" fame. Mr. Fleming also starred in the epic film "Queen of Outer Space" with Zsa Zsa Gabor in 1958.
★★★ · See the USA in Your You-Know-What · Dodsworth the Cat · 2024-10-01
A 1950 Chevy goes through a "torture test" and drives along a dirt road. But the poor car "doesn't seem to have the old snap" so it goes in for servicing with all kinds of modern instruments. The film is aimed at service dealers, and urges them to get a car out for a road test. They may discover $omething else that need$ fixing. Some of the film is MOS but there some dialogue scenes. We get to see animated pistons. Best of all, the film ends with Dinah Shore's old song about seeing the USA in your Chevrolet.

VYou have to hand it to Chevrolet customers in the earlier part of the century, when you brought in your car for tuning up, it gets hooked up to the latest of gadgets, any parts were replaced by Chevrolet approived parts, AND the mechanic would take a free ride with you just so that he could hear if anything else was wrong! Man, now THAT'S service!
