1964:  Source 1, Source 2.  Just guessin' from this info.  (V-8 engine.)
2014:  Source 1, Source 2.  (V-6 engine.)



"Fly Me to the Moon", the song used for this commercial, is the opening cut of Frank Sinatra's second collaboration with Count Basie, It Might As Well Be Swing.  The album was released in August 1964.
