Unitentionally Creepy Car Ad – Mexican Volare


While owning a Plymouth Volare could have been horrifying in its own right, this 1979 ad from Chrysler SA proves that just being around the mopar mid-sizer could give you the willies. We don’t know if it’s how everyone seems to be running away from the car, or the birds attempting to peck its eyes out, but there’s definitely a sinister vibe to this ad. Vo-lar-ay, whoa-oh-Oh-No!
