Description
Black and white 9 3/4″ x 13 1/2″ ad that talks about why people use Champion Spark Plugs. There are nine pictures of different racers or people using Champions. It shows Champions spark George Fullmer’s Lotus-Porsche in SCCA championship, Champions spark Tony Maricich’s Chevy powered SK inboard to APBA Championship, Champions spark Jack Bowsher’s ’65 Ford to ARCA Championship, Champions spark Ron Musson’s Rolls-Royce to Gold Cup Triumph, Champions spark Jim Clark’s Lotus-Climax to World Drivers Championship, Champions spark Chuck Lyford’s P-51 to win Las Vegas National Air Race, Champions spark Summers Brother’s Chrysler Streamliner to Land Speed Record, Champions spark Don Prudhomme’s Chrysler AA Dragster to NHRA Championship and Champion’s spark Norm Nelson’s ’65 Plymouth to USAC Stock Car Championship. The ad tells us that “Champions use Champions! Again in 1965, the overwhelming majority of race winners chose Champion spark plugs because Champions have no equal for performance – regardless of make of engine. Why settle for less in your car?”
