Reply to "Where are those TV commercials?"

pantteraMember

I recall an early 70's Lincoln Mercury commercial that very quickly featured a Capri as well as an even quicker look at a Pantera.
The beginning scene featured a dock worker beside a ship with an unloading ramp in the background, and as a Capri drove down the ramp he pointed to his left and shouted "Capri! over there!" and as it rolled out of sight a Pantera followed, and he pointed to his right and shouted "Pantera! over there!"
The scene then quickly changed into a spiel about how Lincoln Mercury had "lots" of imports, finishing of course with the (growling) sign of the cat. Does anyone/someone else (please!) remember this commercial?
Like a lot of things, I have no idea how/where to find it now 40 years on.......
