before the days of political correctness - 2


A fascinating 1960s Volkswagen advertisement...

"Women are soft and gentle, but they hit things. If your wife hits something in a Volkswagen it doesn't hurt you so much." ...
"Most other VW parts are interchangeable too, inside and out.  Which means your wife isn't limited to fender smashing. She can jab the hood. Graze the door. Or bump off the bumper.
"It  may make you furious, but it won't make you poor.
"So when your wife goes window shopping in a Volkswagen, don't worry.
"You can conveniently replace everything she uses to stop the car.
"Even the brakes."
