Fabulous '50s Ford marketing

This may have been posted before but I found this video about the '50s Fords, Mercurys Lincolns and Edsels very interesting. What an outrageous decade for auto design. Surprised by some of the features and science fiction marketing. Want to prove the new Mercury's paint is durable? Just set it on fire! Seat belts were a $9 extra cost option. Exotic materials? Na, it was either stamped steel or cast iron but life was a lot simpler in those days and the Big 3 OWNED the American road.
