Another classic animated cartoon by the Jam Handiers for Chevrolet. This time, they use a pirate theme to push the Chevy. Still has the very questionable 12 year old looking females in distress and the very implausible ending, but it's nice to look at.

Nothing like "old-time" cartoons. These cartoons are very rare now.
