Looks more like it's saying Elvis diggs P38's as well as gaudy cars.

This is choice caption contest material, and thanks a bunch for posting. I love these old ads.

Can you tell me where the image came from?

That's not a Tornado. THIS is a Tornado.

Shhhh. Yes I know it's Jay Leno's rear wheel drive monstrosity, but when I think of Olds Tornados, this is the image that I think of first.

Found an honest to goodness Tornado.

No wonder those boxy looking luxury cars from the 70s were called land yachts. Some of the ugliest automobiles ever made.

The P38 is there to stop you looking at the car. Honestly, could there be a bigger contrast between the elegant curved grace of the oldsmobile and the box-like ugliness of the P-38?
